WOW, that is some building. Lovely shot, lighting is nice, colors and textures are very natural. I like it. Oh, the couple is cute, too...but that building really steals the show!!!

wow!
great!

You keep amazing me with crisp, clear images.

what a wonderful pic. the building and the sky look surreal.

excellent picture Sam, I love that building I used to go there every summer with my grandmother such an amazing design in a british seaside town

Wow ! I like the picture style. Great colors and (as usual) incredibely sharp !!!

I really would like to benefit of the post-process knowledge of this shot.

You're really a DDW (Digital Darkroom Wizard), Sam O_o

PS: Apologize for my bad english ;-)

like in a painting

Well, as always this is a composition I really like. But I am not shure about the sky and the roof. I think you know what I mean, or ?

This architecture must be very reminiscent of home in Iran. It's so Mosque like. The couple would be way out of line for Iran these days, however.

Crazy, beautiful world.

Amazing architecture :-) And the couple in the foreground is really well captured

When I saw this (sans caption) I thought this couldn't be Ontario in February!

you find hiding lovers very well.

Simply love this pic... Conveys so much peace and love, its amazing!

Nice sharp focus and the contrast between the building and the sky is beautiful. Great photo!

can i come intern under you?

i'm jealous.

fabolous shot, great tones and colours

wow...wow..wow...simply incredible and super refereshing. thanks sam.

Great! The picture would be close to average if it wasn't for the couple.

I would like to see a tutorial of some kind too of the post-processing; Do you think it would be possible to make something like that one day?

additional note: I found the forum and a couple of tutorials from you there. My apologies and thanks!

In fact, when browsing this one on 1024x768, one scrolls down and expects, well, some more bushes... But I never expected bushmen ;-)

beautiful technique and composition. a timeless shot and theme, reinforced by the structure of the picture.
four layers: infinite sky with a fine dappled texture; manmade finite building, smooth but complex with (in human terms) a timeless beauty; a layer of soft, beautiful, evanescent plantings, dappled like the sky but finer; and the royal couple, specific, mortal, finite, on a blank piece of lawn, but combining perfectly the evanescence of the flowers, the human perfection of the building, and the infinity of the sky.
sam, this is your most romantic picture ever, and it's masterly.

This shot got better and better as I was scrolling down! But I do love the brilliant crispness of the building against the great sky.

It's great, lovely like always.

I like the framing with the tree on the left. Fantastic sky! And another interesting surprise at the bottom of this vertical shot.

Amazing scenery! The perspective is impeccable too.

Beautiful picture. Reminds me of my teenage years in Brighton.

love it - i did the exact same thing with my boyfriend (at the time) at the exact same place, many years ago, sigh... x

Wow! It's my hometown! I never thought you would come to brighton!
