What a fabulous building!! Love the way you shot it catching that end curve of the bridge on the left and that sweeping curve of "the scoop". Nicely thought out shot, Nigel. Glad to see some posts from you today.
Reminds me of a hat. Just put a scarf around it and you're good to go. Just kidding. I love the reflections in all the glass and I bet it's noticeable from miles away. Nice post and glad to see you post again as well. Have a good week Sir Nigel.
Holy smoke...it looks like it is about to tip over. I too, am glad you are posting again. If this building were in the U.S. it would make every magazine cover there is. Great shot. Your architects sure have a lot of imagination. Nice work getting this picture.

What a unique structure Nigel. I love the way the golden reflections are present on the "blue image....(more reflections of the sky in the glass?)
The angle of this capture is perfect. It gives me a sense of twirling and a feel for how the building is as well. I think it is so cool that I can read "The Scoop" in the lower part of the building.
This architect was extremely creative and the photographer who took this has an good eye for composition. :)
To my favorites and thank you for sharing this with me :=)
I hope everyone don't stand on top at the right side of this!...it'll topple!...Amazing shot ans camera work...looks like you had a good day to shoot it!

Fabulous composition, and love the way you've used the light here. Agree with Alexis on this one, and like the way you captured the curves, and personally think it deserves a higher c index. Top stuff Nigel.
