Artist's Comments

I was across the harbour when I saw how the fog/haze make the building look like its disappearing. So I took a ferry across the harbour, waited for "magic hour" and used a low angle to emphasize how tall this building is. It really is a beautiful building at night when you look at it up close, this photo hardly do it justice.

Tamron 17-35 Di at 17mm, f/8... Fuji Reala

Daily Deviation

Given 2005-06-07

The brilliant colours, the imposing strength and the wonderful symetry and textures make Magnificence by =kevinwong a favorite for me. An excellent capture by an artist with a gallery you should check out. (Featured by $Moonbeam13)

Great colors and lightning... but why did you upload only a small version? :( This picture deserves a bigger view!

nothing short from brilliant, how did it go in the competition? the symetry is awsume, although not perfect its good enough not to be noticible, the angle and the long esposure make is seem so behemoth, exelent shot :clap:

The competition I entered was the Jessops/Practical Photography Photographer of the Year, Round Five: Urban Landscape. I got a feedback slip, its in tick box format and it says next to the box ticked "excellent entry but not good enough to be shortlisted".
