I've really enjoyed this assignment, and I've learned quite a few things, especially about lighting and shadows.

Heres my attempts.

This one is the New Stadium in Swansea (South Wales, UK), I've tried to frame it at the bottom with the derelict buildings of the old tin works.

Few fascinating architecture around me, so when my husband suggested we go into Hamburg to get a new flatscreen for me to replace the one that broke after only 10 months, I grabbed the little Powershot and hoped to be able to see something for this assignment.

So we went to that new shopping centre, and that is where I took my pics. They are ten all in all (I took more), and the first is definitely none to brag with. But I thought I'd take it when we already had done all our shopping and where on our way back home and night was already falling. It is taken one-handedly, with the outstretched arm, through the windscreen of our car, at 1/10 second... hence its poor quality. But I want to put it at the beginning of my my series because this is where all the photos were taken:

6. Seen on the way to the multistorey car park that is part of the shopping mall, and the light had turned very blue, it was "The Blue Hour" ... and this one is taken through glass:

7. Part multistorey, part shopping mall

9. And a multistorey car park is architecture, too, isn't it?

American Indian Museum that just opened recently in Washington DC. The architecture, both inside and out, is just stunning!
