Great shot - that's a really different building! I love the reflection.

Thanks for the flowers, bottles (which I definitely do not deserve). It’s just a personal opinion, of course, but I do like your picture now—meaning without the frame—*much* better. — db.

Thanks everyone for your comments; glad you enjoyed seeing this unusual building. And Stephane, yes it's for real and they welcome visitors. Part of the ceiling is made of glass so you can look up and see the handles.

Kudos to the architects for designing this unique building, to the owners for having the courage to build it, and to you for your excellent capture. Charming, indeed!

Oh my God! It makes me think of the Alice’s adventures in wonderland… Without the water reflection, I’m not sure I have trusted you on the existence of this building. Really!!!

The “building” is perfectly captured making your picture’s elements very well balanced.

Creative design of a building that nicely captured...

Thank you all for your comments! And Daniel, thank you for mentioning the frame; I wondered about that myself. I have decided to remove the frame completely and I think I like that better. Daniel, you're a wonderful photographer and I respect your opinion very much. Please, always feel free to critique my images. I'm here to learn and you can help.

You should be commended doubly for this picture, bottles: once for the find, and then again for the framing! I mean the framing, BTW, not the frame (which I don’t like at all and find superfluous, if I may say so). — db.

Superb Building excellently captured. Bottles, you have a touch ... an artistic touch in every shot of yours.
