Welcome to TE! :)

The building is Nordiska museet (the Nordic Museum) on the island Djurgården.

About the picture, it seems that you have been unable to decide if you want a picture of the museum or the flora in front of it. As it is now I think you have failed at both tasks. The position you choose to take this picture from is simply not very good. If it was hard finding an opening perhaps you could have taken a picture from the other side?

Otherwise it is nice, it could use some sharpening and perhaps a slight rotation CCW and crop of the sky (nitpicking), but the colors are very nice.

It is a very nice picture and the rotation sure creates some nice diagonals, but it makes me a bit nauseous. If this is the crop you want then I would suggest another presentation. See my workshop.

That is a really cool effect, they certainly look metal. Very nice angle and composition, the exposure you used was probably the best choice.

PS
Can you call it a forest? Bamboo is really a grass, isn't it? It should be more of a ...meadow (JK)

Great picture, howcome the fish are so dark? Are they in the shade of a boat above or something?

Looks great though with the dark silhouettes contrasting the luminiscent jellyfish.

Fantastic! What a beautiful bird, I have never heard of the wood duck but it is even more spectacular than the mandarin duck I recon. Great sharpnes and great ripples in the water, and I love the softnes of the water in the background. Very well done!

Very nice bird picture, good composition, great DOF and sharpness, wonderful timing.

I definately learned something and I think the picture is beautiful in it's simplicity. I really like the structure of the wet clay, it is also amazing how clean and homogenous it is.

Well, You have awoken my curiosity. What are we looking at? Cheese?

Ah, there was a french note. Nice experiment, though I too have a little problem finding the face of the goat. But with a good imagination, everything is possible. :)

Sunset pictures are aplenty on TE, I myself have been guilty of posting some. But this is one of those that stick out. The colors are fantastic and the silhouettes are very nice. Well done and Welcome to TE!

That is a very cool building and you have captured it well. It is a good thing that they planted that vegetation though, they really make this place work. Thanks for sharing this great place with us.
