mariaps What a fantastic looking stadium! Of course you did a phenomenal job documenting it - so many great angles and perspectives! The last photo is my favorite. :)

camilleauteuil tu es un magicien des angles, lumières, et cadrages : j'avais vu ça à la télé, et j'avais pensé, oui, bon, c'est un grand stade ... vu par toi, ça devient une oeuvre d'art ! une sorte de vaisseau spatial échoué ... un animal avec un cou tendu ...

etodd80 A bunch of great shots with a lot of great angles and views. I especially like #8 and #12.

somogyvari BREATHTAKING WORK !!!
somogyvari · 2008-05-30: 02:57
amagala I love #7, #9, #14, #15!
Great set as usual!
I particularly apreciate how you always achieve to include other elements on your compositions as those of the motorbike passing and the guy having a sun bath =)
The night shots have stunning colours: from sunset till night!
amagala · 2008-05-30: 04:24
leocheung Thank you for your excellent work so that we can have a wonderful tour of this great construction from inside out, from near to far, from day to night!
leocheung · 2008-05-30: 05:36
ncshutterbug What a gorgeous set! Was #11 taken from as far away as your note in the second picture? It's so far away, yet looks so close! The second photo is my favorite, as there are so many details to view from the tower - especially the grounds just below. What a gorgeous stadium, in such a gorgeous city. Your photos always make me want to visit.
ncshutterbug · 2008-05-30: 05:52
domelia Trop fort ! quelles prises de vues ! voilà encore un photobloggueur qui met en valeur son environnement : bravo !
domelia · 2008-05-30: 06:46
swkotor2 très belle série de photos qui me rapelle beaucoup de souvenir. J'étais sur place il y a environ12 ans... pour visiter une exposition ou je ne me rapelle que d'une foret tropicale et de pingouin....

comme quoi :)
swkotor2 · 2008-05-30: 07:05
dadlak fantastic range and sequence of shots of this architectural marvel (though it didn't work that well as a baseball stadium). I saved #9 as a favorite, and could have saved a few more. We are privileged that you share your beautiful work with us on this site.
dadlak · 2008-05-30: 07:19
tbranscum Cool building. At first I thought you had worked on the photo to make it look different, Wow!
tbranscum · 2008-05-30: 07:58

carmitage Je suis passée très rapidement par Montréal la semaine passée et j'ai eu la chance de voir cette tour.
Magnifique set, tu nous gâtes une fois de plus, c'est une fête pour les yeux. Chacune des photos a été pensée et prise sous le meilleur
angle. Belle ville Montréal, vue d'en haut je constate qu'elle a encore plus de verdure que j'avais pensé !
carmitage · 2008-05-31: 03:56
cariad this is a stunning set... :)
cariad · 2008-05-31: 04:01
fionarobinson great angles, but what a strange building. Lovely series, i like the way you have explored different aspects of the same building.
fionarobinson · 2008-05-31: 04:56

castaway · 2008-06-02: 07:53
jagungal Another very interesting and creative set, once again showcasing your gift for "architectural" photography (along with children, people generally, social events, birds, landscapes etc etc etc!). #1 and #14 are my favs.
jagungal · 2008-06-03: 04:54

matabou Encore des très beaux clichés, un beau sujet pour la perspective. Je pense que l'architecte t'aurait engagé s'il avait vu tes photos!

Emma Une pièce magnifique de l'architecture de renommée mondiale. J'adore!

# 2 donne une telle vista de Montréal et du stade.
Emma · 2008-06-04: 00:35
kangshung A sensational set of compositions and angles - love the sequence of these shots and especially from close to distant and then into evening and darkness - great work as usual!
kangshung · 2008-06-04: 06:51
eljapa And again great work, this time i like #9 the most but perhaps i would like it even more with a larger dof to get it all in focus in this picture.
#2 is great aswell.. Sometimes the very dark blue is a bit to much for me. ..
eljapa · 2008-06-04: 10:16
munawwirkhan Very nice set. Love the pics.

acididko fantastic set!!!
acididko · 2008-06-05: 14:40
makaid Wow. Amazing set. My favorite is 8. I love the framing of the trees and leaves. It gives the impression that the cables are pulling something actively from that perspective.
makaid · 2008-06-05: 15:28
Lindyart 9 is just too too great ,I also love 13 :):) your variety and ability to shoot everything WELL still amazes me!
Lindyart · 2008-06-05: 16:05
