This is The MET: The Metropolitan Museum of Art.
A WONDERFUL place to visit and to loose yourself inside ;) (I spent 7 hours in there!!)
And the building is a jewel itself. Wonderful architecture. So, I couldn't resist...
I know it's not one my nest moments, but I like those arches very much to let them go...

Thx for stopping by and have a great week everybody, Stef :))

I like the way the curves are shown! It's a good geometric presentation! Rich forms who perhaps make the choice hard to choose... With angle showing?
You did it well!

Very nice composition. Lovely to see all the arches. Good use of curves.

love those shapes, very graphical shot and you know I love b/w!

You chose a very good POV to capture the wonderful architectural detail of this lovely building. Very sharp, well balanced lighting and good choice of B&W to enchance the result.
TFS,

Ohhh! you've been there! one of my dream destinations!! MET!
lovely architecture photo, Stef! I really like the way you compose the shots of the arches, as I rememeber some of your previous work. Lovely lines/shapes, and nice grayscale!
tfs!!

Hi Stef,
Very nice composition indeed. I think I would have cropped off a bit from the bottom. The portion that shows the lower floor is kind of distracting.

Great B&W. Soft gray tones are impressive with the details of the architecture. Thanks for taking us to there inside too Stef! :)

Hi Stef,

A very beautiful photo! I like the B&W look you gave it. It enahances the architecture and contrast. Great POV and DOF!
Well done!

Very nicely done, Stef, showing the beauty of the architecture of this wonderful museum. I have been there once and it is certainly worth multiple visits. I am wondering if it would have been possible to get the full arch at the top and a little less at the bottom but I am not certain. Nice repetition of the patterns & triangles formed by the arches. Nice conversion to B&W and good light. Well done!

excellent use of the shapes and patterns here Stefania
good graphism, well seen and composed
love the tones in this b/w

Hello Stefania... The curves make the composition outstanding... Strong and sharp details are great...

I must say you have the perfect eye for architecture...I like the play with lines and curves.

Gosto da composição, os arcos são perfeitos de uma bela arquitetura, belo angulo, visão grande de curvas e b/w é sempre b/w.
Parabens, é maravilhoso!

Beautiful grayscale Stefania. Nice curves and great graphical details.
Well done.

As the image was loading, and was half downloaded on my screen I had impressions of raised eyebrows and later, of eyes. I guess art is all about interaction with eyes ...
Good photograph. The B/W suits the subject well.
I remember the hall from my two visits to this museum.
