Nikki- First of all I just love this kind of subjects. History, elegance, beauty all combined. I see two masters here. The one who designed each one of these unbelievable structures and the photographer who showed us that beauty of them with stunning camera control. You brought out lines and shapes that inspire, textures that make you want to run your fingers over the screen because its as if we could feel them, lighting and clarity that magnify it's beauty. Framing extraordinary and the use of the black and white and soft colors so as not to distract us.
Amazing work my friend.
Have a wonderful day, you take care. #7723645
