Auditorio de Tenerife

One of the most striking buildings I've ever seen, the Auditorio de Tenerife is an auditorium in Santa Cruz de Tenerife, Canary Islands, Spain. Designed by architect Santiago Calatrava, it was completed in 2003 and is home to the Tenerife Symphony Orchestra.

 

I normally shoot very long exposures with strong ND filters to capture the movement of the clouds, turning them into softly blurred streaks that contrast sharply against the hard architectural lines. But here, there wasn't a single cloud in the sky. Luckily, the sun was in just the right position for this angle, shining down on the majestic curves like a spotlight, and creating a beautiful gradient across the sky.
