A spectacular POV against a dark background of this well-known steel super structure. Excellent effort indeed.

Letting my imagination run a bit, this could be a protruding part of the starship USS Enterprise.

Cheers / Steven

Hi Etienne,

I am usually not so interested in photographs of new architecture .. but this stopped me .. your control of the exposure .. that black sky against the detail in the building is striking .. wonderful image.

take care,

John
