hi brian,
this is a different subject matter from your usual. you have composed this prefectly and the portrait format works really well to emphasise the height of the building. the patterns and lines are fantastic, and of course the light is wonderful producing these lovely colours. an excellent image.
have a great weekend,
brian

Hello Brian,
Went for a job interview there not long after it opened; it is quite spectacular inside as well. Needless to say I didn't get the job:-( I like the point of view here and the repeating motifs offered by the stairwell. But, especially that lovely golden light on the metalwork. Perfect use of the vertical format to accentuate the height. Have a great weekend.

Hello Brian - The soft glint of warm sunlight reflecting of the surfaces of the building is very lovely and softens what, to me, looks like quite a slick industrial-looking piece of architecture. Quite a different style of work for you but presented with your usual attention to detail. Warm regards rosemary

Hello Brian,

An interesting note you have given us about the Lloyd's Building and fabulous photograph to accompany it!

You have taken the trouble to time this shot so that you have caught this building in the most delicious and golden early morning light. And, knowing your dediciaton to your photography, I shouldn't be at all surprised if you made a special journey to central London just for this!

In any case, your dedication has paid off handsomely, that golden light reflecting off the stainless steel parts of the building making them appear as part of some beautifully machined mighty engine. The colours and contrasts are superb and the details are perfectly seen in the brightest parts and also in the deepest shadows. Stunning sharpness and perfect exposure too.

Beautiful!

Kind Regards,

John.

HI dear Brian

What a great photo of this building that I have mixed feelings about. Sure, the gold steel and the modern shapes are stunning, but they're not what I would say are "in keeping" with the classic London that we all know and love. Nevertheless, hats off to you in showing a modern London and also in showing us a building I don't think I've seen before.

Nice work, have a good week.

Hi Brian,
great presentation of this famous building. I thought it has rather silver color than gold but in our photo there is no doubt it is gold-ish.
Nice geometry, very well captured.
I have to read more about the grades which you guys give to your buildings in the UK, I hear it now and then that something is grade I or II or III.

hi Brian,
a very iconic structure, and this fine image tells us precisely why. It is a very unique building, and that makes it all the more captivating to see it. I have read that this style of building is generally frowned upon in the UK, but personally, I like it! Adds to the eclectic vibe of the city.
All the best
Noel
