What a lovely shot. I like the creativity of the angle and the amount of image you allowed, plus the lighting is superlative.

Didn't appreciate this image till I saw it full screen. What seemed too dark in the thumbnail was just fine in full screen. Excellent clarity showing great architectural detail. Very nicely done.

Just an old "Grampa" who still has a Kodak "Box" camera kicking around the attic ... learning and enjoying the wonders of modern digital photography.

I agree with muggsy... you need to see this in full screen to appreciate it. Great shot and I love the blueness of the sky!
