Stilige Sky Watch-bilder! Tror nesten at det nederste blir en favoritt hos meg.

Mye gode reflekser her - blir du lenge nok på innsiden, blir det bra med reflekser da også ;-)

Fin struktur og design på alle måter.

Berit T said...

Flotte bilder, og et flott hotell.
En ser mye i refleksene her!

Ivar Østtun said...

Stilig. Herlige refleksjoner. Men det ser ut til at det er en stund siden de tok en vindusvask :-)

Som mine dager er said...

Yepp, stilig, John. Himmelen er fremdeles blå i refleksjonene. Store glassfasader som dette trenger jevnlig vask, men det ser ut som vindusvaskerne hadde fri denne dagen.

Kan ikke begripe av han over her virkelig la merke til det, han også ... ?!??!

Love your angles and great reflections.

EG CameraGirl said...

The Radisson hotels do tend to tower over the landscape, don;t they? They make for grand photos, though. ;-)

Lovely prespective and reflective pictures for SWF that you have shared with us.
Ever the practical, glad I don't clean windows for a living, this would finish me off.

Så flott John! Artig vri på SWF:)

Petunia said...

Min første reaksjon er at jeg rimelig glad jeg ikke skal vaske alle de vinduene der:) Jammen har du klart å fange bygningens arkitektur på en flott måte. Noen av de beste bildene jeg ha sett av dette bygget.

Jeg strekker hals, bøyer nakken og teller etasjer. Jo du slår meg galant, både i høyde, etasjer og ikke minst fotokunst. Tøffe bilder.

Eve said...

Wow great shots of this incredible building. The room at the top should be fantastic!

VALKYRIEN said...

Utrolig stilige bilder av Oslo Plaza! Blir helt svimmel her....! Og man kan jo bare tenke; stakkars vindusvasker! Litt av en jobb han har fremfor seg! (joda, så det jeg også) Himmelen har i alle fall et fantastisk speil her!

PJ said...

What a tremendous set of photographs. You never disappoint.

Jane Hards Photography said...

The perspective is amazing. The reflection spot on. Just incredible again.

Of all the hotels you could have picked, you chose one where I've actually been. Cool!
Did you take the elevator? It's really cool at night!
Greetings from West Africa!

raf said...

A majestic building that tall takes up a lot of sky and also fills a lens pretty well too. Splendid shots, John, with all the angles you've captured.

Tom said...

Excellent reflections... I don't normally like big buildings like these but you have shown them off well John.

The photos are wonderful, and a nice geometric feast for the eyes. I like the reflections!

Mario said...

Interesting building and superb photos of it, especially the last one. Well done.

Tarolino said...

Arkitektoniskt intressant och vacker byggnad. Fiffigt att fokusera på ett sådant motiv när himlen inte har så mycket av intresse att ge. Perspektivet mot himlen är ändå perfekt.

Ice Pony Girl said...

Like the reflections in the glass.

Makes my neck hurt to just look at pictures let alone take them - unless you have a flip-out screen.

The contrasts in the shot below -the orange and the stark branches... great.

Dragonstar said...

The lines and reflections are superb - particularly the last one.
