Hello Brian,
New buildings seem to be spouting up in London all the time these days, one just wonders how long they can maintain the momentum. This is a fine capture, combining an excellent point of view with some moody lighting. A superb study in architectural graphism nicely tempered by the lovely cloudy sky and reflections.

Royaldevon (86438) 2015-02-13 3:32

Hello Brian,

This is so fantastic!
It is sky and reflected sky, to a point that you cannot imagine how a building can be present.
Still, the building does have power and strength but it is like a line drawing in the sky.
I just love it!

Have a good day,
Bev :-)

Hello Brian
A year and a half ago I was not present at the the site.
Since then I see a lot of beautiful works in your gallery and I admire them.
Fantastic architecture that looks futuristic.
Perfect light and excellent color and composition.
Kind regards

Fantastic shot, the edge between the sky and reflections disappears completely, Your POV and the vetical format accentuates the height of this building, my compliments

Hi Brian,
excellent, bravo ! So photogenic and well captured, blue sky and clouds everywhere, even on the building, beautiful and impressive.

HimalAnda (10671) 2015-02-13 10:18

Hello Brian,

The point of view is good, geometric, but the most beautiful is the sky and clouds reflections on tje building.
Well done!

Hi Brian,
Excellent view on this mourn block and the swooping curve of the tube give the place a very elegant feel, almost like that building in Spain that looks like the dancers. The reflections from the glass walls make it seem like some sort of cool architectural chameleon. Really adorable management of the light too, I can't imagine this was easy with the combination of sky and shaded lower part.
Cheers
Noel

PaulVDV (63456) 2015-02-13 12:47

Hello Brian,
Wow, a great shot!
It seems like we're looking through a transparent building.
Well observed and excellently executed.
Best regards, Paul

Hello Brian

Impressive shot in the right moment with this blue sky and white clouds. The architecture of the buiding is really beautiful and the reflections on the windows made it infinite.

Nice weekend and best wishes

ourania (51103) 2015-02-14 6:30

Hello Brian,
this picture is stunning, you balanced the angle and the perspectives superbly, choosing a remarkable feature of the building to express its dynamic character. The precise definition of textures and lines, random patterns and colours, exalt the product of your artistic vision. The play of reflections and the impression of transparency and movement are excellent. There's a suggestive atmosphere too. Congratulations and thank you!
All the best, have a lovely weekend,
Ourania

Robert1969 (7160) 2015-02-14 7:03

Hello Brian,

A picture witha a lots of lines in it.
This and the vertical position creates a
lots of depth/highness. The cut left
and/or right emphasize extra the depth/highness.
The composition and light management are
excellent.

Friendly regards,
Robert

tyro (30513) 2015-02-15 4:33

Hello Brian,

Your architectural shots from London are always a joy to behold, especially as you always seem to find just the perfect viewpoint for a dramatic and quite different capture to those which we are used to seeing.

And this is a fine bold composition with gorgeous light and colours, the reflections in the glass facades of the building almost blending into the fabulous sky yet with wonderfully bold and strong lines dividing them beautifully.

A stunning piece of work, immaculately captured and presented with exquisite details and sharpness throughout.

Fabulous!

Kind Regards,

John.

delpeoples (60342) 2015-02-15 5:06

Ciao dear Brian

hehehehe still laughing over your Peniscola critique ehehehehe. Naughty!

But to your angelic photo. It's so beautiful and so difficult to work out where the sky ends and the skyscraper begins. The reflections are luminous and I love how you've managed so skilfully to deal with the shaded areas. Excellent vertical frame, stunning sharpness and amazing reflections. Well done!

Hugs
Lisa

unclehotshot (4004) 2015-02-16 3:06

Hi Brian. That's quite impressing and just my cop of tea.
Very neat colors... a rather special blue like looking down a deep pond or looking up nat the sea surface from below ( as a diver). A bit kalaedoscopic. Cool.And skarp.
Cheers Frank

annjackman (23019) 2015-02-16 8:50

Hello Brian,
The reflected sky gives a strange but fascinating image of this building - as if we are seeing straight through it. A gorgeous, artistic study in blue and white.
Love it!
Kind Regards, Ann

jhm (211738) 2015-02-17 5:23

Hello Brian,

I am agree with the previour writer, still, the building does have power and strength but it is like a line drawing in the sky.
Great architecture picture with the glasses front.
The reflections are pleasant, you play excellent with light and shadows.
Composition and presentation are very nice.
Very well done, TFS.

Best regards,
John.

Hi Brian,

Amazing shot this! How important was here that there were clouds on the blue sky! It makes this photo a real stunner. Fantastic observation.

Hello Brian - The upper section of the building looks almost weightless and transparent as it reflects the highly detailed sky. A magnificent architectural shot.

Warm regards

Rosemary

adores (46979) 2015-02-23 9:30

Hi Brian!
This is perfect, the pov and the beautiful reflections that make it almost hard to distinguish the building from the sky. Beautiful effect and colours!

ChrisJ (172430) 2015-02-24 17:41

Hi Brian

Wonderful reflections of the blue sky and grey clouds with the highly reflective surface of the modern high rise skyscraper. Nice repetition of geometric patterns and shapes. Good tonal range and I like the minimalist colors and tones of just blue white and shades of grey al the way to black. Tfs.
