[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
After a long period of "silence" in uploading (due to a removal to another house), again a photo of one of the creations of Santiago Calatrava in Valencia.
It shows us the Hemisferic, with mirror in the water, and in the background the Opera Palace "Reina Sofia".

It will be my last Calatrava post from Valencia. I was astonished and overwhelmed looking at walking between this architecture. Go there and see and feel it yourself!

Hi JWM,
very cool photo. It looks like giant helmets or futuristic fishes maybe. I like the reflections a lot.

Hello JWM

The Hemisferic is a subject often seen on TE, but you 've presented it very well.
The tight framing on the building to catch the reflection makes it very impressive.
The fine sharpness enhances the modern architecture, and the blue cold tones work well with such a futurist subject.
Well done.

Regards,
Karine

JWM, this is a good photo of unusual and surrealistic architecture. It somewhat resembles a knight's armour,and the reflection adds much to the over-all effect. Nice work!
