Hallo Dan,
Imposante -sehr originale Perspektive.Gute Beleuchtung und Details.

Hi Dan,
I had a minute to understand how the photo was : a reflection or a view from above. It's good that some elements are not on the upper and lower part of the photo !
Nice one :)

Hello Dan,

Good idea this not so usual point of view from bottom to top, well centred in the frame, for this building view.
It is providing a kind of abstraction which makes us first wondering what we are really looking at.
Good idea, the composition was well studied and it is working.

Yves.
