very cool. What a neat photo opportunity. The only thing I wish is that, although very close, it was perfectly symetrical - seems a little heavy/tilted on the left. good job. 8 cthenk
excellent example of architecture here... I love the detail and the DOF is phenomenal... in this image, I would have either tried for perfect symmetry or a heavier angle of perspective... good shot! = 8 - jmsetzler
I like your shot, looks like the camera is tilted just a hair to the left. With all of the other symmetry, level would have been better. I am thinking about putting a small bubble on my camera, seems like they ought to have that built in!!
Off center, terrible picture. Very bad. Just kidding. I think I'd have preferred to see it even more off center, but I don't know if that would be possible in that building. It's a lovely space and the light coming through the windows makes a very attractive color on that marble (?), but by my calculations, it's more like afternoon light, so I think your title is a bit off. I wonder if those figures are life-size...if they are it would give a nice sense of scale. But now I think they may be even larger than life size. Of course, I would have liked it better with a statue of a *mmfpfhfphh*, but you take what you can get :-)
I don't like shots like this to be "just off" symmetrically. IMO, it should either be perfectly symmetrical or off by enough that the viewer can tell it's intentional. It's also a little unlevel. But it's making me dizzy and that's not an entirely bad thing.
Taking the picture perfectly in the center of the hall would have given a "perfect perspective" feeling, but maybe there's something on the way :) And with a little editing to the colors, you could have made something close to "Lone Star" by Gordon McGregor (see the Lean/How'd They Do That? topic). Anyway, good work !
