Such an amazing building, Leuven's City Hall...
The whole facade, front, back and sides are covered with statues of important people, such as merchants, civil servants, etc.
The color is exactly as you see it here, not white, not yellow, not brown... just something in between...
I especially loved all the gargoyels that were all over the building...

Just adapted the colors a bit and added a tad of sharpness.

Enjoy!
Anneke

Hi Anneke,
Wow, that's a really special POV of this beautiful Belgian building. It's like a big cathedral... Excellent sharpness and good representation of the architectral details of the towers. Creatively captured scene, fine shot! TFS.
Best wishes,

Hoi Anneke,
Wat een schitterende architectuur! en je hebt het erg goed gefotografeerd. De kleur is erg mooi en natuurlijk,al denk ik dat het gebouw kort geleden is schoon gemaakt.Luchtvervuiling is een ramp voor mooie oude gebouwen.
Fijne foto Anneke!
groetjes,
Frieda.

I love the detail in the building and the soft tones in the stone, but the strange angle makes my head hurt! I look at this and tilt my laptop to get the verticals straight! So definately an interesting and arresting presentation.
Thanks for sharing
Mark

Ciao Anneke



Great shot and beautiful close!
I have a cousin that lived in Leuven
and studying, and she sent me several photos of her
and this is a building of this body, a
square on your back and what I liked was the fountain
a child reading a book and a glass above the
head falling water in your body.
No doubt it is a beautiful place and beautiful culture!
Congratulations, a beautiful shot!
