Indeed… nice place… nice architecture… spray painting this is indeed a crime !
This place looks way to pretty for vandals to spray paint. I thought it was a museum or something. The person looks like they’re holding a camera.
Love the warm colors, beautiful shot.
Great shot… well done
Lovely light captured…nice perspective!
i think it was somebody taking YOUR picture lol yeah graffiti has it’s time and place, but that ain’t it, it’s a wonderful shot by the way
Exceptional shot Rian. Love these architectural images. Great symmetry and the tones are amazing. Very well composed image.
Everything about this shot is fantastic…lighting, composition, lines…and a wonderful idea to “shoot the shooter” with getting the person snapping your photo in the shot. Love this one!
Sadly there are vanda;s everywhere on this planet, such a shame. A fabulous image, so beautifully captured.
Great lighting and perspective…beautiful. People are just stupid.
experimental fantastic architecture photo, Rian!
Wow, brilliant composition; I like these warm colours and this atmosphere.
Great lighting (Love the white balance you used). Fantastic symmetry in the image.
wide angle for a huge terrace … nobody, strange, surreal, good! and gold is good for our mood!
Yes, that was an awful shame. Unfortunately not surprising. Your shot however shows no hooligans or graffiti. This shot may be my all time favorite of yours. The composition is beautiful and fills the shot. The golden tone lends an air of real significance to the place. The leaning person is a nice part of the shot as well. Really great job Rian!
wonderful composition and lighting!
Gorgeous architecture. Too beautiful to be vandalized by graffiti. Love the light.
Wow it is a shame that a place like this has graffiti in it. Wonderful photo and architecture!
that is pretty bad where they did the graffiti, but you captured a great shot here rian!
I like the deformation, I like the photographer beside the deep perspective…

Beautiful shot with fine warm colours, but overall the fisheye gives an attarctive and unusual perspective. I like it !
bonjour,
Wonderful exposure and details…Gre
totally agree on tagging and context for great spray art (and spray art vs tagging while we’re at it 🙂 — beautiful shot. almost missed the umbrella and purple sky on top. quite nice.
Excellent shot, you captured the light just right.
What a beautiful structure. Love how you’ve captured the repetitive arches…the space..the light. Beauitul!!!
Looks like a very beautiful place. Great shot!
Great capture. A pity that places like that get tagged. Well done managing the light.
very cool shot. especially enjoy the gold and lavender tones.
Great shot! And how cruel to be tagging this wonderful place…
Terrific shot Rian – difficult not to make it look like a travelogue capture, but you did it i.e. put a personal stamp on it.
Great image and composition, very pretty with great light. I agree its a shame to paint something like this., Nice work
Great symmetry and lightscene.
