 This is the National Carillion (Bell tower) building in Canberra, on Lake Burley-Griffin.

I took this shot just before 6 am, and it was about -1 degrees celcius. I like how the dark blue sky contrasts with the orange.

Taken with 50mm f/1.8 D

A nice photo ... but it is another in this challenge that would have been improved if it had been taken earlier in the evening with a little more light and a little more blue reflected in the water. Canberra Australia?

No idea what this is but it's pretty cool. Great night photo. Sky is a nice hue of blue. The op of the tower is almost overexposed but overall not bad.

I find the lighted part of the carillion a bit too saturated to my liking and there is a very visible hot spot. I wonder if a shorter exposure time could have helped?

The contrast of the building against the blue sky is beautiful. Great shot!
