 Thanks to all for the votes, nice to be on the 1st page once in a while !! Here is how the actual building looks like

These golden like features belong to the Esplanade in Singapore. The Esplanade by the Bay is Singapore's main cultural & musical events center. These features cover the entire structure which is made of glass.
If any of you DPC'ers make it to Singapore, let me know - I'm more than happy to show you the place....

I wondered what on earth it was - why put these on glass windows - then it crossed my mind that in Singapore, with such hot light, that maybe they are shading the inside of the building during hot weather or extreme light, otherwise why bother?
Any comments about that?
I like this picture a lot - well done

Didn't I already see this one? Weird. I think we have two DPC'ers bumping into one another!
