This is the Concert Hall of Santa Cruz de Tenerife. It sits on the edge of the ocean and waves at passers by. Creation of Spanish architect Santiago Calatrava. It resembles a wave arching over the city and I like the sharp lines of the building and the fact that it looks different from every side.
Over and under the Calatrava bridge, Venice, Italy. / We were lucky enough to be able to float underneath the bridge as well and I was so surprised to notice that you can see the people walking over it. Most of the bridge walking area is made of glass, and last night I went over it for the first time since it was opened last month and only just realised that there was this interesting photo opportunity. I liked the idea of combining the two aspects in this diptych. / For the left hand image I was able to set up a tripod and focus decently. For the right hand image I was in a boat being tossed around in the Grand Canal beneath the bridge, and had to use an automatic stability setting. Hence the grainy result. Optimal viewing for cards on a black background.
This is a masterpiece of architect Santiago Calatrava / http://www.mam.org/info/architecture.php

A reflection off the shiny floor of the Santiago Calatrava-designed Aeropuerto de Bilbao (Bilbao Airport). To get the reflection turned right-side up, I held my camera upside-down when taking the picture.
