Hello Mario,

Your picture is very well, but the building is an creaction without soul, through the big glass wall and no decorations.
This gives a good perspective, splendid colors too.
Very well done, TFS.

Have nice sunday,
John

Hello Mario,

A well framed tower, from an effective close point of view!
Pin sharp details and a lovely colour palette as the different shades of blue and grey work well together...
A fine composition with a dynamic feeling!
