About The elegant Balmoral Hotel contrasts with the sharp anglular shapes of the roof of the Waverley Shopping Centre in Edinburgh (now renamed Princes Mall, another victim of the gradual MacDonaldisation of our place-names).

It certainly is shocking to see it against the Balmoral. Princes reminds me of the Bauhaus style.

Wow, this is beautiful. The composition and perspective are perfect. There a great contrast between the simple geometry and the older architecture. I am putting this in my favorites. Congrats!
Regards,
Gaja

absolutely wonderful, intriguing composition with old and new building. This contrast speaks volumes!

I like the perspective and the juxtaposition of modern and old. It looks soft to me too but it gives it a vintage look. That look would be better if it was just the old building. Some sepia toning could be interesting.

Of course, if you know me (as you do) you'd know it couldn't possibly be a photoshop job given my complete absence of skills in that department! AS for the title, it was a rare moment of inspiration while uploadin a shot; normally I can't think of anything remotely interesting. This could easily have ended up being called 'Balmoral Hotel from Princes Mall'; maybe my subconsious hates the name Princes Mall so much it produced another title?...

This made me laugh, after our discussion of 'composite images', if you didn't know this was a real place, you'd think it was a 'Photoshop' tour de force. Great title, too, sums up the image perfectly, rather than (as some) trying to import significance into an indifferent image.

This is composed really well, Phil. I like your choice of B&W as well.

I assume you got trough the Cocacolasation fase ok. Great image and fine point of view and thank you for a good laugh even though it's not that funny when you think about it.

Thanks Howie. The softness is just a digital compression issue of some kind; perhaps I could resize the images in a better way so as not to lose so much quality. The original file looks much sharper :)

I like the light and tones here Phil, just looks a little on the soft side though.
