Looks great!! It seems a simple design, but those are the ones i enjoy most. The combination of round shapes and squares is a strong combo. They define very neatly where a new part begins. Yet the complement each other and make each other stand out more. The symmetry is another strong point here. It's almost perfect.. almost. I like that.. it seems so clean and finished, yet has remained human because of that 'lamost'.

You're right it looks a bit sci-fi, because of those lights i think. It feels actually as if we are on a spaceship or something.

Looks great!!

Congrats man, you always seem to make us loose the notion of gravity, you make us wander around the lines you've caught so nicely. This photo flows very well.

darkblackcrow [2004-07-31 12:53:45 +0000 UTC]

Wonderful symetry, and some great shapes. There are some great, huge forms in this that are really interesting. The way theat the light at the bottom seems to overpower the light on the walls. I love how the dash of colour really gives it such strength. A wonderful soft glow coming off the main light is really absorbed well by the light walls. Great perspetive, it really gets the mind going.

this is lovely man, as usual!

the symmetry, the beautiful mix of colours. it's just perfect. the big light on the floor, clearly superior to it's counter-parts on the walls, with that little black eye, just watching.

very, very good shot.
