Nice crisp photo with excellent contrast! The clouds give it a sense of motion that almost makes me feel dizzy. Great shot!!

You are lucky you did not get shooed away by the overzealous guards who frown upon tripods! Nice, unique POV of a very well-photographed set of buildings.

Very nice capture, with a good and original angle. Exposition settings are perfect : there's no over-exposition even around the more lighted parts (windows). The sky is interesting, a mask seems to have be used but it's real, as said in your note. This result certainly comes from the use of such shutter speed (8 s). Congratulations!

Sharp and crisp shot! Well done! plus the sky is amazing...

Great use of slow shutter speed.
those clouds make the scene.
This proves the need to carry a tripod everywhere.
Well done.

I like the picture. Very nice indeed. The clouds are amazing, they are flying away.

Oh my GOD!! I feel so small!! Fabulous shot! Great angle and colors!

Another your masterpiece. I can decide what makes more impresion, the sky or two mighty buildings. This is an example of the perfection.

Very original picture.
La différence de couleur des 2 édifices donne encore plus d'effet à la photo qui est très bien réussie. Super.

You keep amazing me Maciej. A true talent...
