The building is judged by most to be ugly.

Can't comment on the building in its entirety, but your photo of this detail looks interesting.  Sometimes initially disliked buildings receive more affection as time passes.  I like your image!

I agree with Mike D. B.

Would be nice to see the whole building.

Nice shot. Like the play of light and shadow. The slight asymmetry makes for good balance. I think its the deep shadows combined with the saturated look, that helps create and reinforce the rhythm in the image. Sometimes we see wonderful drawings of proposed buildings; then we see the building and wonder, what was I thinking!

Bob, for a moment I thought that stamper is paying homage to your style ;)

Funny you mention that. At first glance I thought so too. I really do like the way the photo was taken--shadows, composition, etc.

A cruel and unusual punishment for the people of Scotland... and my eyes. ;)
