A shot of the Islamic Centre in Kuala Lumpur. I liked the symmetry of the woman on the right, against the archway in the background. The curve of her veiled profile matches that of the arch. I also applied 'autolevels', to the stained glass windows.

Taken with a 28mm lens, so there is going to be some distortion. The steps at the bottom actually curve, for example. I was tempted to crop the top too, but would lose the 'T' shape, with the yellow logo at the axis.

Great subject (another one I walked past), and the people framed in each door way a nice extra touch. Not very keen on the traingular dark bits in each top corner. A bit of distortion correction would have eliminated them, without needing to go so far as lose the impression of hieght.

Great pov, real perspective added by the low position to shoot from. And for dimensions the inclusion of the two people up there is great. Interesting shot Chris.

Indeed a nice symmetrical work,great POV,and interesting that you had poeple one for every big gate symmetricaly,too.also they gives a nice touch of scale for this building.
well captured and strongly composed,Thanks for sharing,Chris!

Regards

Hi Chris!
Excellent architecture shot!
Good compo with nice lines in it,the persons,standing in front of the doors,giving a good scale to the building.
Well done!

Hello Chris,

Nice point of view, the build is so impressive as the perspective is very good in my mind, the arch are very graphic.
well see
cheers
greg

A perfect symmetry indeed, Chris. I enjoy very much the darkness inside and the way we see people at both gates, look so smal relative to the gates. A very nice one.

Hi Chris,
Indeed the symmetry is very great, but maybe not the different between the man and woman in the door opening, very nice composition Chris!
Have a nice weekend.
John.

Nice use of symmetry indeed, Chris, apart from all the ornate architectural detail and artwork there is even a person in front of each of the doors. I think I would have tried to correct the distortion to the effect Richard was mentioning. Nice luminosity rendered in the stained-glass windows.

hi chris, one of my favorite subject i love to see here on te is the islamic sacral architecture; surely the one from andalucia is spain is unbeatable but also the modern stuff like this one is very attractive to me;
very nice compo; i like this pic a lot;
have a nice weekend,jerzy

Bonjour Chris,
Encore une très belle photo de tes archives. La symétrie est très correcte, amusante même avec une personne devant chaque entrée. Les distorsions ne sont pas gênantes ici.
Merci !
Pierre

Hi Chris, was browsing your portfolio, and came across this one. As Jenny asked this orning howe to get the lines straight, I thought, I would like to comment on this one. (I sometimes envy you so muc, you have done so much travelling.
I ike this one, Chris. It is a beautiful big building, and the two people in it, gives such a csale and perspective.
I have made a woorkshop in which I straightened the lines, see what you think.
