What an amazing building! This image demanded my attention as soon as I laid eyes on it and was another contender for the top spot. Sometimes the addition of a figure can really work in an image and this is definitely one of those occasions. Congratulations on a superb image.

I've seen this image do well in other architecture comps and it's easy to see why! This is one of the most technically accomplished night shots I have seen and fully deserves all the success it has had in all competitions, a truly outstanding image and deserving​ of the top spot!

Some buildings can appear just as majestic in the night time as they do during the day. In fact, this slightly different perspective often lends a certain added something to your photos that perfectly complements the shapes and lines of particular buildings. For best results, head out at dusk and keep shooting until it's fully dark. You'll find the right balance of light that works for you.
