Kylie Greenan from Richmond, Australia

Nice lines and tone... the highlight on the roof is a little blown, perhaps if toned down would lead your eye more into the centre of the picture. Nice capture.

@Kylie Greenan: Good Idea. Now that you mention it the eye does sort of get stuck there. I'll dodge it down a bit. Thanks for the time.

Luis A. De Jesus R. from Mexico City, Mexico

Reminds me of those movies where these super rich Europeans flaunt their stuff. Nicely executed.

@Luis A. De Jesus R.: You are right. Thanks for looking.

AG from Washington, D.C., United States

Great B&W. The depth of the tone of the sky really ads drama.

@AG: It was a great day to shoot.

Rabbit from Richmond, United States

"tri-pod friendly"? does that mean they didn't allow tri-pods before? Hummm I could see that having a tri-pod may be used as a wepon (especially good for whacking another photographer over the head while they are taking a good shot)

Oh and I checked out their site.. the Plan your trip page nearly had me jump up from the computer & go pack. I LOVE BLUE FLOWERS and they have a sumo butt load of them.

@Rabbit: They used to only allow them from 0900-1200. Now they allow them all day as long as you are not bothering anyone or blocking others (very resonable).
