The amount of building detail captured in this photograph is dizzying! The angle and composition on this square image are well balanced. The light, tone and texture of the buildings create an almost hypnotic feeling for the viewer. A clever and well thought out shot. Well done :)

I was immediately drawn to this clean and crisp photograph. The curves have been captured well and I really like how the photographer has composed the image also capturing the reflection on the tiled floor. A sharp and very impressive building and an equally impressive photo.

**This contest is open to photographers ranked between 1 and 250 in this week’s <a href="https://www.photocrowd.com/photographer-community/">Leaderboard</a>.** Big is better in this architectural slug-fest between the tall, wide and generally attention-grabbing beasts of the built environment. If you’ve visited Bilbao recently then great, but it doesn’t have to be a signature building to enter this contest. What matters most is size, and that might also mean residential tower blocks, shopping centres and office complexes.

I really liked the symmetry of this image and the way that the photographer has used the benches to create leading lines to the centre to image. The curves of the arches which are backlit give the image a warmth. Lots of lovely detail captured here.
