No note? that's sad because I want to know more where exactly is located this amazing building in Casablanca. Your photo is breathtaking, as is the place you photographed. I adore the point of view, the cropping, the colors, the 2 silhouettes in the photo (it must be really cool to be there, right between the blue of the see and the sky and the comforting dark and calm of this place) .
This is what I call a masterpiece !

All your images are so carefully composed. This one catched my eyes by its hard contrast. I like that I can see the sea (or a lake) outside. The silhouette of the man is just perfect and adds a softer human element to the otherwise cold and geometric image.

It looks like a dream, like geometric flowers falling from heaven... I like the idea of it being taken looking out rather than in.
