architecture shoot preview assignment

Details 
 I picked this photo because the details on this building make it really interesting to look at. Also 
because its really tall building and really bright.



Light
this picture shows light you can see the cross perfectly. the way the light is making the cross glow and the shutter speed of the camera would have to slow because you can see the light perfectly especially since the whole church is dark.
Patterns
in this photo you can see patterns and the repetition of the patterns on the building.
the lines of the building look like they go on forever and all the pattern is the same.
Angel & Shapes
In this picture you can see different shapes like a triangle and and all together it almost forms a pyramid. the picture also has angles from all the shapes that make up this building.
Surroundings
In this picture you can see all around and you can see where you can go to get out of there.
I think this picture meets the description because you can see all around the place and its clear where you are and you can see the different buildings.
