Whoah! What a majestic view this is, beautiful architecture, beautifully captured!

Thank you Daniel, Dale, Tabrizi, Inframan, Denise and Bottles for your kind comments! Due to severe distortion, I really couldn't get a shot of the entire cathedral, but I liked this even better than just a building (although I really should go back some day to try again -- maybe with a different camera :-)).

Phantastic, Helen! I love the composition and the colours. -- db.

Breathtaking. A map of the western mind in its prime.

Excellent, Helen. I love all the different levels and the patterns everywhere. Great exposure.

What a beautiful style of architecture Helen; I see patterns all over the place! Nice composition and a great entry for the challenge!
