The text beneath the statue in #3 is "Inspiration".

Very interesting. Would be interesting to see a shot of "Inspiration" capturing more of the window panel in the upper right and some of the window panel in the lower left for balance perhaps. To me, the lighting is almost a bit sinister; don't know is that's intentional. Either way, I think it works. A very interesting building.

Interesting building, indeed. Where did you capture it? I like the second one and the detail in #3. The Tower in the first picture looks somewhat distorted (by the WA-lens, I assume) and distracts me.

I'd consider a tad more brightness, as David already said it appears a little bit sinister.

Thanks, Dave. That was indeed how I framed Inspiration. Shoulda left it alone.

Harald, this is Kiruna, Sweden. I share your dissatisfaction with the distortion.

#2 Psycho.

This church was the inspiration for a fictional church in a rather grisly novel, "Sun Storm". Maybe I can sell it as a cover photo?
