Beautiful composition with extraordinary sharp detail ... terrific color saturation. This is a beautiful composition of what, I suspect, is not an easily photographed design element of this building.

Observing from Chester, United Kingdom
Superb graphical effect, really interesting. But Cow Palace...?

@Observing: Sorry! Should have explained. The building is formally called Aberdeen Pavilion and was built in 1898 to house agricultural displays for the Central Canada Exhibition, hence the informal "Cow Palace" moniker. Being from the UK, you might be interested that it was inspired by London's Crystal Palace. Thanks for the comment and query.

Like all the different graphic elements that are included in this, which gives the image a layered look. Very well composed with careful attention to balance.

Ce bâtiment est bien original et les couleurs bleue et jaune l'agrémentent très bien !

An incredibly crisp shot - and an awkward angle to work from, nicely composed! Love the depth of colour saturation too, everything works on this shot.

This is really really creative! We know the picture has depth but the sharpness makes it flat, and what you get is a interesting layers of lines and contrasty colors. Nice shot.
