[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
This photo was taken at the new Hard Rock Cafe in Belo Horizonte. I took the photo because I thought that it would be a great post-card!

This photo shows that Brazil is a place of economic growth, even though it is still classified as a 3rd world country.

Quite a minimalistic approach on the tower and I think it works. There are some graphical tension in this that makes it dynamic - the round vs. rectangular, the vertical on the left vs. the diagonal on the right, shiny metallic vs. matt masonry. The building in the upper corner is also sort of a threat to us as it sort of falls over us and that adds more drama. The repeated blue lights add something too but I run out of words.

Hello Ben,

Welcome to TE. This is a simple yet effective photograph. I like that your attention is immediatly drawn to the upper left portion of the photo. The colors and clarity are very good along with your point of view.

David...

I like the colors in the photograph Ben! The structure on the left is the eye catcher for me. For some reason I don't mind having the square building on the right in the image. It appears to give the image balance. Welcome to TE!

Olá, Ben!
Também sou de BH, e fiquei impressionado com sua foto desde que vi a miniatura na galeria.
Como já foi dito, é uma visão minimalista da torre e foi exatamente isso que me chamou a atenção. Apesar de já tê-la visto, nunca me ocorreu esse ângulo.
Parabéns!
