Hi Asher,
OMG! Cem you are very bold! Now what would be the sibling to this?
Of course, your good question deserves a serious answer. Actually, quite a few of my pictures I have shown in the past have similar compositional elements to them. While browsing in my archives, I can see clearly that this is a recurring part of my personal style. So which siblings should I show you here? Well, here is one which I haven't shown before:

And another one from the same series which had been shown before:

Cheers,

(PS: Before anybody asks, there are no halos caused by the tone mapping in the first one. The edges of the window panes are actually like that due to the tinting/UV film applied to them. The film leaves a gap of some 5 cm near the edges.)

Cem,

This picture is defined, not merely by it's powerful point of view but also by the humor and political commentary. Here we have a multi-national organization, wrapped in piety and in one simple title you have opened the way for questioning an entire culture.

The pictures that follow all are as bold or bolder architecturally but lack the added element of social commentary. Also in the Gaudi picture, are the edges really that sharp?

I'd have been puffed up with pride had I made any of your pictures you have shown on this page. However, that first one towers above them all. It's your fault for having set such a high standard in the very first picture!

Asher
