Part of the impressive 90 metre glass and metal facade of the Christchurch Art Gallery Te Puna o Waiwhetu. This is one of New Zealand's leading galleries, and apart from special exhibitions, entry is free.
I thought the curving lnes would make a good shot and the different aspects of the reflections were a bonus I did not consider at the time. Thanks for your views- comments are always valued :)

Now that would be a super building for natural light. Perfect for an art gallery with the filtered glass they used.

It is giving me an "optical confusion," LE. What a beauty of a shot. This would have done well in the curves, lines or whatever contest.

Quite a building, Eve; You could probably spend a few hours shooting variations and reflections with such an architectural gem.

A stunning piece of architecture and a terrific photo, LynEve! I do like the lines in this image, and the changing color in each individual pane of glass is fascinating.
