le choix des lignes, des quadrillages, des fuites el l'harmonie des bleues qui créent une composition épurée et très moderne, c'est superbe.

A fantastic symmetrical composition. By all the various shaped and lines is it a graphical beauty.

At first sight, I believed it was a perfect reflection in windows, but you've succeeded to make a beautiful shot, with this framing

I watched a documentary about them putting those wind turbines up there. It was an amazing operation.
Lovely shot. The colour is wonderful.

@crash: Actually they are turbines used for power in the building. Thanks, Crash.
