Looks like the top of a nuclear reactor! Is it maybe a large brewing vat? Hiccup! ;-)>

Nope and nope.

Is it a construction that carries the inner, highest ceiling of a church ? Probably not, cause the ones I've seen were less comlicated....but I do know that these ceilings aren't connected to the outer roof.

Has it anything to do with a ship?

I dimly remember visiting an observatory ages ago with a planetarium that was basically a parabolic cupola over a large audience hall. The construction on top to support the cupola looked quite similar. I don't see why anyone would want to kiss me up there, though :-) Anyway, I like the picture a lot... I'm a big fan of glass and steel constructions, anyway. They look so fragile.

It's a computerised image nicked from the CPU of the computer that created Monsters Inc - this is obviously a scene just before the doors were introduced... (",)

Michelle, Rork and Devisu was pretty close. That cupola in right side is consert halls roof. Those are acustic panels wich can be moved hydraulically. 20 meters below, there where girl playin sting and bumblebee with violin, alone. It was pretty unrealistic place. .n

I was thinking that it may be a set for an 'Alien' film... What an imagination I have, is it not so..? :) Beautiful photography anyway...

Haven't read through the posts yet, but I'd say this is some scaffolding of sorts for a stage? Like the back of a theater or something... This reminds me so much of my little theater acting days, hanging out at the backstage with all the dusty ropes and planks and unused props. (*

Antoonio posted Fri, 22 February 2002 at 6:01 AM

Goddamn! Where in the hell did that guy get there????? Seriously, I was inside of that huge roof, and there where nobody, nobody! ..there where maintenance man, but he was standing right next to me. ...seriously, I cant explain this one. Eh. :o/ .n

I actually saw the guy, before Jordy pointed him out. What surprises me is that Niko didn't notice him LOL... Forgot to say that this is a goooood shot. It looks like a Dark City movie still. (*


Rork1973 posted Fri, 22 February 2002 at 8:44 AM

The Phantom of the Opera ?


JordyArt posted Sat, 23 February 2002 at 5:50 AM

oh, come on Rork, you have to have heard of The Phantom Of The Opera? (",)


Misha883 posted Sat, 23 February 2002 at 8:59 AM

This is quite a dramatic shot with the guy. What does the whole frame look like in color?


Antoonio posted Mon, 25 February 2002 at 12:48 AM

I still cant believe that there are that guy. HUH! Misha, I'll post the original too. .n

Antoonio posted Mon, 25 February 2002 at 1:07 AM

Misha883 posted Mon, 25 February 2002 at 7:52 AM

Thanks, Niko. You're right, the B&W is better. Wonder if anyone else ever sees the ghost?
