[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
The domed building in the bg, is the Pima County Courthouse.

"This courthouse, designed in 1928 in Spanish Colonial style, is a nice architectural homage to Tucson's Spanish-Mexican past. If you are downtown, take your time to stroll around and view the building from all sides. Explore the courtyard and its arcade, created by arches and columns, or sit by the cool water of the fountain. The best part of the complex is actually its glittering tiled dome in vaguely Moorish style. Finally, walk upstairs (security check required) to see the only remaining piece of the original Presidio walls displayed there. Access is free during office hours."

HI Chris
I am guessing that they were in the process of raising the flag.
Colorful, with good lines this architecture is impressive against that sky. You got a good capture.

Hi Chris Jules,

Really brilliant and stunning picture.

Well done,

Hello Chris,

This surprised me when I read it was in U.S.A.
The arch frames the building beautifully and helps to guide the eyes towards the sharp details of the ornate decoration on the central panel.
The symmetrical format works so well on this regularly designed building.

Have a good day,
Bev :-)

Beautiful visual
the architecture is wonderful and
this color of pink, she is nice!
The arc that circles the beautiful picture of your
architecture adds a good effect.
Now, the details worked at the center
I love very much.
Great work my friend ..
