architecture preview

shapes-this building doesn't have straight edges and has an interesting shape for  a building
light-light works well with this photo and makes a reflection in the windows and on the water.

details-this gargoyle is a detail that makes this building and the apparent corrosion shows how old the building is.

patterns-everything in this building is symmetrical and there are patterns with the windows

setting-this building sticks out tremendously in this setting because its so much taller than all the others around it.
