About An architectural shot. Set the white balance for tungsten as I like the deep blue colours, however not sure if this one is a bit too much. At any rate, my goal was to show the structure as an efficient mechanical and industrious creature.

An unusual POV that shows the great complex nature of the structure. Normally I like monochrome tonal quality for this kind of pictures, and don't know which one would be better, but certainly the blues are eye catching. Well seen and photographed, surely an winner.
All the best,
Regards,
Bhabesh

Hi Bhabesh. Thanks for the comment. In fact, the lights on the ceiling at the new Suvarnabhumi Airport in Bangkok are blue, so the WB setting only enhanced what was already there.

Warmest regards ~ James

James,
The decision to set the white balance for tungsten was a brilliant one. The color adds so much interest and depth to the shot. How did you get the point of view for this ... it looks like you are in the rafters.
On another subject, I have been away from UF for a very long time. When did you move to Thailand?
I hope all is well. I'll try to drop you an e-mail in a few days.
Best regards.
Mark

Oh, and congrats on the BIP award! Well deserved.

Hi Mark. I havent moved to thailand, only here on holiday for chinese new year. mainland china is nothing but chaos during the lunar new year holiday so its best to just go out of country for awhile.

i've also been away from UF for awhile, only now posting a few shots that might be interesting.

look forward to your email, and perhaps meeting one day soon.

warmest regards ~ james

hi mark. as for this photo, i was almost in the rafters, there's a small observation deck in the departures lounge area that lets you get this close to the ceiling in suvarnabhumi airport, but its not terribly easy to find.

i havent moved to thailand, i was only there on holiday for most of the past month. i'm now back in guangdong province and will be here till the summer now, maybe longer, not sure yet.

take care and catch you later. james

hmmm, i just noticed (after posting my most recent comment) that i had already replied to you on your comment mark. this one makes three.

haha well bump up the numbers a bit i guess.

Blue steel, quite cold looking, and quite strict in its geometry, that provides the construction such a stability! Getting such strong contours of blueish on blueish tones is an achievement for itself, and keeping the DoF over the whole range of interest is an additional one. Both of them make it to something very special in the category of abstracts. Only the upper right corner could have a bit less of that greyish surface, but that's all I would change.

Greate work and indeed a BIP, james! Congratulations!

Nick
