[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
This photo is taken in our capital, Belgrade, while visiting the 50th International Book Fair, an event that takes place during the last week of October, and something that I never miss! A heaven for book worms! Unfortunately, I came back with none book photos, as the crowd was immense :(
This is a detail of the roof which looks like a dome, in the biggest hall of the Belgrade Fair.

PP work: full frame shot, just conversion to B&W to enhance the pattern, originally it is of brownish colour.

It's a beautiful formal image. That makes me think of a scene of film "Close Encounters of the Third Kind" !

Excellent architectural shot! Looks like some flower or an UFO :)
Great work, congratulations!
Robert

P.S. I što si lijepoga kupila/pročitala/poželjela? :)

Hi Marija,
Nice shot. The symmetry and the curved arch is awesome. I really like all the light holes.
Well done.
Richard

:)) I'm still smiling at Vik's comment :)) she must have been drunk or somethin' :)))
Nice shot Marija! The lights are making a nice pattern...
And what if.... I ruin the symmetry?? :)) See WS! I hope you don't mind!?!
cheers

I am with Viktorija and can see the 3rd effect when I move the image up & down my screen. It is like the light are turned on & off and get bigger & smaller - really weird effect. Very nice composition with the half-circle at the bottom which expand to a bigger half-circle with the roof with all of its lights. I also like ToM's version which is totally different but still works so it shows that there is much to see in your picture. Well done!

Hey, who needs drugs when I can move your image up and down and get dizzy! It's not totally symmetrical, but it works fine. Your conversion to B&W works fine; it focuses the eyes on the essential, the symmetry of the architecture. Great shot, Marija!

hi,Maria!
amazing effect when i'm moving up-down your image in my monitor, just crazy!
Like it!!!
Viktorija
;D

WOW what a photo Marija...this is what I call an eye for detail.

Jos

very nice! The composition is great. You really highlighted the patterns nicely. Can I use if for my photography asignment on patterns? ;)
Who wants to see photos of books anyway. :P This is great. Very nicely seen. Great job. JP

Great perspective.
Perfect shot for b+w.
Steve

You do such good work, Marija. Every time! I'm sheepish in admitting that I tried moving the photo up and down, too, after reading the other comments, and it was fun!!! :))

That probably wasn't what you intended us to do, but you never know what kind of inspiration you might give to people when you post a picture! Thanks!

Hugs,
Gayle :)

So you have been to a bookworms paradise huh?? You got yourself a nice graphic picture, I must say! Like your title suggests the symmetry is perfect, well spotted. TFS

Hello Marija, no books but at least a great photo :) You captured it very well with your tight composition and that you turned it into BW with great tones. It's not always easy to make a nice bw out of a colour photo but you succeeded very well. It almost looks like a 3d photo. The details are very clear.

Great work. Yan

Yo, yo, like dominoes, superb perspective it gives and you know what ? You can play with this too if you have a scroll on your mouse, it's really, really funny to do, a "crazy" shot, my dear friend, thanks, I have something to play with tonight and when I'm finished the next day, I give yoy my smiley:-))

Quite....symmetrical :). Nice idea to turn it to B&W. It reminds me a bit of a space ship interior with all the lights and the bulky iron supports of the ceiling.

very nice shot marija! love the mix of lighting and shadows. very cool texture and interesting design.
