This piece is well scale front to back. Everywhere you look there are large abd small elements playing off eachother. The coloration and lighting are masterful. Can't we see the volcano spit out some lava?

Tipping the camera works, and I rarely think it works. I think it allows the freeform shape of your main building show better, detached from the regular, rigid viewing conventions.

Two things--the city seems to divide into new vs old. I would expect to see a few more 'new' structures clustered somewhere off in the distance. Also, for all the beauty and weirdness of the main building, it plops down on a rather plain square. It couldn't get a better base, or 'plate' to be served on?

Great reflections. Lighting quality and tone was nice.

Very original structure. The lighting, composition, and materiality of the main building are all excellent. I’m glad to see the people, cars and trees that add so much – especially considering the limited shapes at your disposal. The textures on the city buildings are needed, but I’d like to see more variation and subtle details.

The strongest part of this image is definition of the scale and the light of course. I really like to see people and cars and trees down there, it feels like I am the most important man in the city

The main structure is very original and it aspires to be build in the future.
What I dislike is reflectivity all around.
Nice touch of the sun's glow is a cherry for me.

It's a spectacular building that a lot of the blobbier architects would be proud of. The light and tonal qualities are all good. An impressive amount of work for the time at hand. Although I wonder whether a simpler composition could've been just as powerful. THe building on the bottom left is shockingly ugly and distracts from what I believe is the object.
