Frank Gehry is one of my heros. His motto is "why can't I ?" This is so very enjoyable . The glorious colours are rich and warm, and the Needle is transformed into a version of the Mace in the House of Commons. Fabulous!

Superbly well seen and captured Mark. Shapes on shapes.

Abslutely fabulous my friend !!!

That's one of my favorite places to shoot. Hopefully, we'll be able to get down there next spring/summer when we get back. This is a most excellent shot ... love your result! And I like the parallel titles, too. Nicely done! :)

I love how this museum reflects everything. In fact I love everything about this museum period! It's a gorgeous building. Superb shot -- and I have one very much like this somewhere in my files from one of my visits there.

wow fantastic shot

there are a whole lot of images in your amazing gallery that I want to comment on one day, but I’m commenting on this because I recently was reading about Gehry, and I remembered this shot from the day it went up. And then, I spoke with Tara last night, and we were talking about your amazing scope and knowledge and humor. (We were in total agreement.) (And btw, she told me about your comment that I was officially ‘weird’---I saw it and laughed. ((You're being kind.)) She wrote a comment below which is worth seeing---I think it’s in Andrea’s gallery, in the last day or so.) This is a spectacular take on Gehry, and on the way architecture can explode the world in front of us. Great angle, love the deep hues, and the space needle reflection is captured like a big abstract sculpture or even embroidery. I’m sure Gehry wanted that, but you captured it with stunning clarity. I saw this in both full zoom (which zoomed to the earth’s core, btw) and in the zoom you recommend. Both are terrific. In full, the descent downwards is terrific, because it ends in that lower layer, with all the cacophony of the ground-level playing havoc with the surface. And you included that brick wall---don’t know if it’s on the museum or in front of it, but it’s a natural conclusion to the shot. I’ve spoken of your long descent in some photos: This is a perfect example. then, in the smaller zoom, the whole design comes across---and that’s one formidable wall, curving away as it does. Terrific angle, crop (what you include as well as not), and capture of a terrific structure. Gehry would have to approve.

(btw, when I posted the vodka duck, yesterday, I totally forgot about Wild Duck. Totally. Maybe it was unconscious...I was doing one of my stupid bits without remembering that was a vodka. And how did the Russians ever come up with “wild duck”??? It sounds so American. It's like if they came up with "Hawaian Punch"...)
