 I recently discovered the amazing architecture of the Chicago Cultural Center (the old Chicago Public Library). This is the Tiffany dome -- the largest Tiffany glass dome in the world. When I got there on Sunday there was a chamber orchestra setting up for a free concert. I love the architecture but I am not sure how emotive it is. Also, I worry that voters will expect exterior shots rather than interior.

Architecture is good but the back view of these things really spoil the shot for me.

The audience is a little soft and oversaturated, but I like the composition. 7 from me.

I think I've seen this room before, in a mosque? Splendid location, but there's a lot of fringing going on, which blurs the details a bit.

I'm not 100% sold on the actual image itself, but it certainly has an uplifting feel, which is what the challenge requests. Well done
