Wow! An excellent entry for this contest! This is truly unusual. But your unique perspective is what gives it a high rating for originality. Your technical expertise is outstanding with your DOF staying strongly in focus from bottom to top. That's a must to please your viewers with this one. The colorations seems true with nothing seeming out of synch with it's surroundings. Your lighting and exposure was a complete success. Nice Work!! Good luck int he contest! NR

This is a wonderful addition to the contest. The architecture is really unusual and the Christmas decorations add to the "bizarre" element of the levels and balconies.

VERY cool photograph! (While I like the pop of color from the nutcrackers and Christmas tree... I -artistically- wish they were not there --- as they interrupt the flow of the work... but no stars taken away, certainly.) I think your POV is dynamite. All aspects are good and interesting -- foreground, mid ground, and thin that "V" at the background of the work.

In my mind this certainly qualifies as strange architecture. An excellent perspective with great colors. Best of luck in the contest.

So this is the interior of the hotel I just reviewed from the exterior. Wow. This is just outstanding. The architecture is phenomenal. The framing, SAT, POV, DOF, angle, composition, are all nothing less than perfect. Thank you for sharing.

I have seen shots of this Lobby from you before and I feel this is your best one yet.
The angle leading us all the way up is superb showing awesome details.
Nice perspective, focus and fine entry for this contest.
Good luck

What a beautiful work of art. Designed by someone who is a master at what he does. The lighting , the shapes, all work together. You have shown this beautifully in your picture.

I have of course seen you posting similar shots before, and each time I am impressed by the interior of this hotel. I especially like the perspective showing so many lovely shapes and lines, and these lines are bringing the viewer right into the composition.

Your photo is also pin sharp showing clear and well defined details all over, and again the exposure is perfect.

The photo has got a good cropping and everything is well centered within the frame. Indeed a well taken photo and with a very good DOF.

Very interesting angle and viewpoint of shot! I like the symmetry, colors and "architecture." Nice lighting and detail. The added bonus is the water feature in the foreground. Nice capture. Thanks for sharing.
