Such a fancy palace I would say! It looks much in the style of Spanish influence. Love the catch.

Is that a Richard Serra sculpture on the left?

 

[Asher Kelman]

Yes, I believe you are correct, Petert! Have to check that there's a plaque! Must be worth $600,000 to $1,200,000, LOL!


Here on the right, you see a very important new center for the arts, The Annenburg!

I think the immense sky is breathtaking !! I think it gives a natural spirituality to the whole shot which brings much peace.

Charlotte is on to something here, Asher. The sky really gives this one a kick to put it over the top.

 

[James Lemon]

I know this building... great architecture! I wonder what this might look like with a early morning sunrise?

Lovely sky. Adds that much extra to the image.

Lovely sky. Adds that much extra to the image.

Thanks so much, Fahim!

The amazing thing about the sky is the City paid nothing for it and it bypassed the planning commission and just arrived on its own.

Or did it?
