Shots from the car (4)

I’m posting a series of four shots taken from the car, with all the problems one might expect from that kind of photography, but I think they're worth including here just for more of the unique architecture.

These two images are being put up together because I think they need each other for a full picture. The first is most of the building, which I thought was just such an unusual design. The second is of the front of it, making it look like a paper-thin structure, which of course it really wasn’t.

The building itself:

Nikon D810 ,Nikkor AF-S 24-70mm f/2.8G ED

These are amazing shots. You are so right about looking skinny but it isn't. Great captures. V.

I'm impressed with the compositions you managed to get from a car. I can never seem to keep the horizon straight. V

what do people actually do in so much floorspace in a small country?

A clever capture, this angle of the left side makes the building look wafer thin!
