Stunning..although i dont know about the title ( i must have missed the point) but its a fabulous image. I love the contrasts between the colours and the symmetry of the columns. Its wonderful and looks great framed. Well done :)

Beautiful simmetry and colour here;well planned shot!! Lovely!

LocoCow, 6 months ago

I agree Stunning, The lighting really draws the eye upward into the tunnel… But the Blue floor and the movement @ the end, makes this a site to behold…

very interesting and arresting Rhana. the colours are so high key that it shouldn’t work but it does. its quite memerizing actually. nice one.

Rhana Griffin, 6 months ago

Thanks so much lovely bubblers!

salsbells… if you look to the left and read the description you’ll see the reason for the title ;)

Rhana Griffin, 6 months ago

Thanks Juilee… I totally agree about the colours. I had that exact same thought as I was processing it!

billyboy, 6 months ago

Wow, blow my mind with complementary colors! I so love this, the neutral columns separating the two opposite extremes, with amazing symmetry sucking me right down the tunnel. You are a genious to have captured this so elegantly. Beautiful work!

When i’m stuck for a heading I sometimes take certain key words (such as orange glow roof symmetry sunday in this instance) and whack them into google. This sometimes gives me something different and a bit out there.

When applying this principal to this masterpiece (i’ll come on to that a bit later) it would give you the following choices (selected by me from the 1st page):

1. UFO Round Up Volume 7 Number 43
2. Big Hairy Laowai
3. The Sound Of Whirling Blades

But that’s just me.

As for the shot – Nice, very nice indeed. What a gorgeous symmetry and delicious light and shadows. The contrast between the blues and orange are amazing

Great shot Rhana I love the colours.

Rhana Griffin, 6 months ago

BB… awwww (blushes) thanks punken! You sure do have a way with words XOXOX

Stuart… I’m kinda partial to “The Sound of Whirling Blades” Nice tip btw! I’ll remember that for next time I am stuck =) Now if you will excuse me… I’m off to try and find out what the hell a Hairy Laowai is…

Thanks Ian!

Deborah Bowness, 6 months ago

Oh I like!! Great perspective and colours! On reading your title I though of ‘Sabbath Bloody Sabbath’ (I’m an Ozzy fan….Lol!)

Mark Gardner, 6 months ago

superb, i like very much !!! lines and light are wonderful, nice work indeed

Liam Murphy, 6 months ago

Its a very nice image. I love the assymetry created by the sunlight, was this by any chance the University of Queensland?

The shot kind of polarizes the notion of warmth and coolness, separating the two by the pillars.
It works.
I like it.

Kurt Tutschek, 6 months ago

excellent colors and light.

Rhana Griffin, 6 months ago

Hey Deb!!! Lol @ your Sabbath ;) Me… I’m more a U2 girl =))
Thanks so much hank!

Hey Liam… thanks for stopping by! This was taken on an aimless wander around the streets of Melbourne. I love your take on this image… as Juilee said… it shouldnt work, but it kinda does =)

Rhana Griffin, 6 months ago

Thanks Kurt =)

Steven Agius, 6 months ago

Stunning lighting, colour and composition, the perfect shot, well done.

Jeff Burns, 6 months ago

OR like Stuart said you can even go a step further and combine his Googled words
and call the shot
1. The Sound of Big Hairy Laowai
2. Big Hairy Whirling blades

The lighting on the ceiling is fantastic. Wonderful shot as always.
I feel sucked into it like its a vortex. Wahoooooooooooooo

Bill Fonseca, 6 months ago

Absolutely stunning image and as Steven A has said it’s the’Perfect Shot’ Awesome and I love this one.

Great perspective Rhana! Very nice work!

Deborah Parkin, 6 months ago

I really do like these architectural images Rhans – this is wonderful – love the perspective and the lighting is superb – not just a pretty face eh? :))

Irene Burdell, 6 months ago

A really superb shot lighting and colours.

Geoff Coleman, 6 months ago

I don’t know why but as I looked at this beautiful image it made me think of a corridor of secrets kept – maybe something to do with the discrete presence of the figures at the end of the passageway. Regardless, those colours just complete a beautifully framed piece Rhana.

AndyReeve, 6 months ago

Perfect – cant fault it. So what is a Hairy Laowai

Antanas, 6 months ago

great capture, perfectly done

Keegan Wong, 6 months ago

beautiful capture. I love the orange and blue hues, this would look fantastic on the wall!

Mark German, 6 months ago

I like the colour in this, and in particular, like the brave straight-up central composition.

clarkey, 6 months ago

Beautiful shot and beautiful treatment. Gorgeous colours and great perspective. Reminds of a scene from a movie, shot (supposedly) in a monastery, I saw many years ago. Your black frame sets it off beautifully.

vonne, 6 months ago

This is STUNNING!

DawsonImages, 6 months ago

Great light and perspective

Jamie Lee, 6 months ago

Fantastic light and depth

iCandor, 6 months ago

This is a superb artwork Rhana. My immediate reaction to it was that of “Arches of Light”.

petelangman, 6 months ago

perfect

Andrew Bosman, 6 months ago

This just shouldn’t work….. centralised framing and two high key colours and yet it works very well.
Good one Rhana.

Oli Johnson, 6 months ago

Awsome shot. everything is right about this shot!

Julie Langford, 6 months ago

Superb shot Rhana – lighting is exquisite on this. Awesome colours too

Rany Lutz, 6 months ago

Super light and color/contrast. I love this.

cdwork, 6 months ago

Superb shot- colour and light is wonderful

Paul Vanzella, 6 months ago

wow – impressive colour palette and it just seems to work seamlessly within the frame… you have strong composition here Rhana, that just presents so well. I can see why this is such a popular image… Great work!

Rhana Griffin, 6 months ago

Thank you so very much everyone for all your wonderful comments on this one. It is so nice when you have a good feeling about an image to see your feelings validated by the responses of you all here in our RB community.

Many thanks to Geoff Coleman for his insight into this image which resonated with me so strongly that I had to change the title.

Mary Lake, 6 months ago

Awesome work!!! Wonderful color!! :-))

Gregory Ewanowich, 6 months ago

Beautifully captured Rhana! Wonderful light and shadow areas and the perspective really draws the eye.Awesome work.

Birgitta, 6 months ago

I like the latter title more too. Compelling image!

LisaG, 6 months ago

Bellababe, I have not really truly been slack with this image, I did fav it straight away….at the time I found it difficult to comment – put it down to my emotions (LOL). On first view I felt very drawn into the image almost lost the warmth of colours made me feel at home.

Lucindawind, 6 months ago

Great title.. the endless tunnel of arches.. I like seeing how people present a certain strucuture in a different presentation. Color can make a difference.
