| this is an incredibly gorgeous image. you've managed to capture, enhance and maximise the dynamicness of the building so well; it's almost like the best sort of portraits in that you've really nailed the buildings character. i love how someone described it as "wilfully malevolent" - a bang on description that. i mean, the angle, the colours, the light, everything works really well. i love the depth of focus too, how it gets a little soft the further back you look. i hope you realise how inspiring this image is. look at the reflections in the glass - fantastic! this so deserved better than 22nd. technically sound (i personally like the crop - makes it look more widescreen to suit it's sci-fi dystopian feel), and a great choice of subject... |

Very nice image. I like the angle. It is different and that is good. The lighting is great. I see you had 10 second exposure so it must have been fairly dark. The focus and DOF are right on also. I also really like the reflection of the clouds in the windows. Very nice image to look at. There is one thing that I think is wrong with your image though, I think you cropped the top too much or if you didb't crop then I think you should have backed up a little to get the whole building in the shot. It is a different and nice perspective though. Also a very nice score. IMO it is a nice shot that could have scored a little better with just a few minor improvements. Hope this helps. |

Thanks for your comments and votes. I got some comments on cropping the corner of the building... It was not on purpose :o) I am almost 8 months pregnant and just couldn´t get any lower for this picture. Really had to lay down in the last step and it was not easy.. :o)
(I must have looked so funny shooting this picture )..
It would probably have turned out better if I had used my wide lense but I don´t have any filter for that one and really wanted to make this one a long exposure one.

| This image looks generated. Has nice colours and lighting. But, this angle for me, doesn't go down very well. |

| Fantastically eerie light - looks like a movie set for a thriller but better. Marvelous off-kilter angles. |

| Beautiful. There's some irresistible element of anthropomorphism about this building; it seems wilfully malevolent. Of course it's partly the brooding angle and partly the severe, deep-space-bronze processing, but the effect is absolutely striking. You have captured the building as an emotional presence rather than as a utilitarian construction. 10. |

| The angle and the uneven lighting detract from this picture. |

| This is cool. With the extreme lighting, it looks like an artist's conception drawing. Lots of personality in this shot - colors, angles, detail at the bottom. Well done all round. |

| Great colours and nice focus - while the concept and angle is great I'm not sure about the crop - maybe a tad too tight (6) |

The Orc grant house.
Mér finnst hún full dökk og aðeins of gul. Mér finnst lÃka asnalegt að taka af horninu efst uppi. Annars er þetta mjög skemmtilegt sjónarhorn. |
