The Stata Center @ MIT
« on: January 10, 2016, 02:35:45 am »

Architectural shots are not my forte but I thought I would give this a creation of architect  Frank Gehry, The Stata Center at MIT, a try.  Thoughts?

Great subject and framing. The colors...blues and the yellow/tans very nice together with the silver/gray. I don't think this processing is successful though. It gets a little too "weighty/dull" down at bottom under the overhangs.  You might look at it with the with shadows/blacks pulled up considerably... making it more flat...possibly reduce contrast/clarity locally to accentuate that even more. Probably worth shooting again...especially in flat light conditions. /B

Perspective correction must be a nightmare on this one. ;)

The building itself is the star of the shot, so I find the image is very good. I do find the colour in the sky a bit strange though.

I like it a lot! Yes, as Paulo wrote above, the sky is kind of weird but its color goes well with the rest of the image. The geometry reminds me of the F-117 Nighthawk stealth fighter…
