Lovely in mono, accentuating the architecture to the full. The upper curve is beautifully sculpted. A wonderful perspective

It looks like a pencil drawing, a study of lines and shades. I like modern buildings, this one looks imposing, and the fancy patterns they've incorporated into it gives it a local feel.

Yes, I like how the b&w allows us to concentrate on that amazing style . . the sweep at the top is so effective !

Lovely angle. Really like how it seems to merge into the mist.

This works well in BW; I think architecture shots almost always do. And this one is very interesting; I like the lines and curves.
