[Notas - Normas] Nota do Artista
The distinctive, circular shaped roof, of the Temple of Heaven, in Beijing. From Wikitravel:

"Temple of Heaven (天坛 Tiāntán), south east of Qianmen and the Tiananmen Square. Not only a beautiful sight, but also surrounded by a vast public park popular with local residents practicing tai chi, dancing, and so on in the mornings and on weekends. Home to many ancient trees, this is also the greenest place in Beijing. Just a short stroll away from the historical sights will bring you to peaceful woods and, amazingly, solitude (especially toward the West Gate). The temple itself was the site where the emperor prayed every year for good harvests and fair weather."

The Temple actually has 3 upper tiers of roofing, but from this angle, only one is visible.

Hello Chris! Beautiful architecture. Interesting note. Good point of view. Nice light and colors. Original shot. Good luck!

Hello Chris,
I like the symmetry in composition!
The ancient architecture has been captured with sharp fine details, interesting colours...
Good point of view gives attractive lines!

Hello Chris,
A very good capture of this interesting roof which stands out well against the pale blue sky. The colours and clarity are excellent and bring out the architectural detail to good effect.

Hi Chris,

Good tones and fine POV.
Excellent.

Hi Chris,
wonderful details and textures. The wonderful quality let us enjoy this view. And with the amount of details we can see, the centered composition is not disturbing as the tower itself is only one thing and very soon the eye is on the details.
Lieben Gruss, Ulf

Excellent shot! I like the simplicity of this - just the building with that curved roof on top, and then the straight line at the bottom - circle and line. Increduble detail too, which adds a lot to the enjoyment of the shot. Well done!

hi Chris

Really a nice name of Temple of Heaven, with such rich architecture flavor and carving details. Good graphic view.

TFS, bill

Hi Chris,
very well captured and framed close-up shot of the top of the temple. It is very good technically and thanks to it, the details of the ornament are perfectly visible.
Very good one!
Tfs and best regards.
