    Very nice. Great symetry and lightng. From a distance it has an abstract look about it, but as you get closer you see what it is and appreciate the fine details of the structure.
    Good work

    Great stuff, Yoyo. Where is this place. Very unusual design for a transportation center.

    Love the symmetry but wish the top of the light dome showed.
    Saturation and tone are great too.
    Keep Shooting!

    Re: Train Station II

    Hmmm.

    It says something, though I do not know what. The geometry is quite interesting, and the lighting is strong too. It is basically a shot about geometry and lighting, and perhaps isolation. The thing that sort of bothers me is that you can't really make out anything in the shadows, and the four big white areas in the circular structure are so dominating, but also so bland. I might clone out that horizontal line shown in the far left window. Definitely a moody pic.

    Hi mbb, Thanks for the kind words.

    Hi GB, Thanks a lot for the suggestions. You are right about the shadowed area. I overlooked the line on the left. Does it make sense to you if the cross in the centre is a crucifix?

    Re: Train Station II

    Yoyo - Nope, the vertical and horizontal lines in the middle of the big O don't seem like a crucifix to me, even when I try. Maybe it's the surroundings not being religious looking?

    Btw, spot color might work on this one.
