UK - Oxford - Radcliffe symmetry_sq

I know I've posted the 'full frame' version of this Radcliffe Camera shot before but having posted it to #Instagram recently ( www.instagram.com/dgphotos.co.uk/ ) I thought it worth uploading this as if anything the square format crop strengthens the shot.

 

My search for the perfect Radcliffe Camera shot continues......

From Wikipedia : "From Wikipedia : "The Radcliffe Camera (Camera, meaning "room" in Latin; colloquially, "Rad Cam" or "The Camera") is a building of Oxford University, England, designed by James Gibbs in neo-classical style and built in 1737–1749 to house the Radcliffe Science Library. It is sited to the south of the Old Bodleian, north of St. Mary's Church, and between Brasenose College to the west and All Souls College to the east.

 

The Library's construction and maintenance was funded from the estate of John Radcliffe, a notable doctor, who left £40,000 upon his death in 1714. According to the terms of his will, construction only began in 1737, although the intervening period saw the complex purchase of the site. The exterior was complete in 1747 and the interior finished by 1748, although the Library's opening was delayed until 13 April 1749."
