Description
she's taking her time making up the reasonsto justify all the hurt inside
but somewhere in a private place
she packs her bags for outer space
and now she's waiting for the right
kind of pilot to come
and she'll say to him
she's saying
i would fly to the moon & back if you'll be...
if you'll be my baby
got a ticket for a world where we belong
so would you be my baby?
she's saying, "love is like a barren place,
and reaching out for human faith is
is like a journey i just don't have a map for"
so baby's gonna take a dive and
push the shift to overdrive
send a signal that she's hanging all her hopes on the stars
what a pleasant dream
just saying

very nice. gives a sense of falling. i like that you shot from the side of the wall. makes the photo look as if you are looking down from the edge of a balcony.

I'm a sucker for many things. Dynamic angles would have to be one of those things, since I'm a John Woo fanatic. But, anyways...
When I view this photo, I admire how the original colours blend in with this blue, somewhat natural tint, giving it, like most people said, a bright sci-fi feel. I also like how the little concrete holes in the pillar suggest me to remember that it's still down to earth, and there's a gritty side to many things. The opposing shades from the top and bottom window frames also add a nice touch. Kinda fits to your piece's title.
I said a comment similar to this on ^ hesitation 's Back Alley Story, so I apologize for my state of mind. Lol.

in the words of a great man. fly me to the moon, let me play among the stars, let me see what spring is like on jupiter or mars.
it's like holding hands with the universe, skiping planets, like starbursts. The sun, and the moon, are sacred. They are art in any form.

i like the softness of this capture.
an interesting angle i never woulda thought of.
the dash of yellow goes nicely with the blueness.

this one rly caught my eye. i love the angle of the picture! this is such a great photo

Love the off-center composition, the symmetric structure and the asymmetric appearance of the photo at the same time. The touch of yellow is a wonderful part... a pity that it's partially overexposed. As this is a technical limitation of the camera, you are not to blame
This photo rocks.

great perspective, lighting and colors, the stairs give a nice dynamic spiraling up the more upwards this picture goes...
maybe u could make an extra fotomanipulation with an actual moon in the middle to underline the title? not necessary but could be really nice i believe!
shame from the little grain and slight unsharpness, a stative could help...

Absolutely breathtaking. So many things make this one of my favorite pieces of photography in a long time. I love the angle it was taken, first of all. Looking up shots always seem to have a certain mystique to them. The strong lines made by the pillars and the offcenter circle of the top are quite fun as well.
Also, the light flares add to this one instead of looking like mistakes in the photo. The subtle color in a few of the windows to contrast with the darkness is something you don't really notice at first, but definitely a nice touch.
Great work +olya , and worth the

On second look, I just noticed that you in fact have 3 focal points.... the other two points of glare provide a much needed contrast to the ceiling, invinting the viewer to believe that the ceiling is so high up, yet so close. The closeness is provided by focus on the ceiling. I think that is what is realling inviting you to look past it to the moon.
The depth and tonal range of the color, in combination with the startlingly soothing lines simply make this piece. Though I may never see this piece without thinking of the descriptive poetry (and vice versa...)

Absolutely fantastic. Though your chosen vanishing point is a common one, you have done something more with it. But then again, this vp is a common one for good reason. It is almost impossible to have a bad composition with this point. And along those lines, well... excuse the pun... ...but every last line in this photo leads the eye toward this end. But yet, it's almost not enough. You want to go beyond this point. To the moon perhaps. Or perhaps beyond, to join your hopes in the stars.
Your poem adds so much to this piece. I really would like to have this in a print form... but I am spoiled.. I would want a signed print with the poem written in a insert so that I could display both. Your words flow so beautifully and they harmonize with this piece so well that I don't see any way that you could possibly separate the two now that I have seen them in tandem. You are a true artist.

This is a very impressive shot, but I'm seeing digital color artifacts in the dome at the top of the structure that kinda knocks the wind out of my sails. Could it just be the JPEG compression?

mm, its noise due to long exposure. blah.
could be removed with bw but i enjoy blue/warm contrast too much.
thank you for the comment!

Im do not usally like architectual photos but this on intrigues me. Love the coloring and the slightly futuristic feel to it. Nice that one of the offices is lit making the photo be slightly asymetrical.
You are indeed a very good photographer with an eye for angles. Thats why you are on my watch list

This is simply amazing. You always seem to capture the perfect architectural shot from the perfect angle. You are an inspiration.
Well done as always. I'm going to look through my photos to see if I have something that can compare to this. If not, I'm taking a road trip.
Nice work pup.

Beautiful shot! The colors are incredible...and is that gold sunlight shining through windows or part of the color scheme?
Whatever it is...it's a great shot.
