Was able to 'catch' this beautiful finch Friday 20 oct 2023, at Kirstenbosch along some other little birds although there was not much light since the weather got worse. Typically is their bicolored beak.

LSE (London School of Economics) Saw Swee Hock Student's centre.

Award wining. 17,000 locally sourced handmade bricks.

Architect: O'Donnell & Tuomey.

Open 2014.

 

I found it a very difficult building to photograph, as no vertical, many angular corners edges. , and adjacent street very narrow, so cant stand back.

 

I used 24 mm T&S lens , but still difficult.

This is one of those times when HDR comes in very handy to bring out the colours and details between shadows and highlights.

 

My blog on Chin Swee Temple is here

so decided to take a droplet shot with christmas wrapping paper as the background and got a droplet that looked like a heart. so it gave me the idea to enhanced it to a perfect heart shape.

Chin Swee Cave Temple is a popular tourist attraction and religious site located a few km before the peak of Genting Highlands on a sharp, rocky slope. Originally a cave temple, years of development have produced an expansive physical complex that extends far beyond the altar chamber, rooted in traditional Chinese architecture expressed by ornate prayer halls, colourful statues, opulent archways and its iconic pagoda tower. The temple was built by the founder of Genting (Lim Goh Tong) to venerate Buddhist figure Chin Swee, a year after he constructed the first resort and casino in 1975. The site was chosen as it reminded him of his birth village's landscape in Fujian, China.

A semi-abstract shot of the faceted London School of Economics Saw Swee Hock Student Centre by O’Donnell + Tuomey Architects. Halfway through the #Photo24London event, I was on my way to breakfast at the time. I'll have to return and do this Stirling Prize nominated building more justice.

I've photographed the LSE Saw Swee Hock Student Centre before but don't think I did this RIBA Stirling Prize 2014 nominated building justice.

 

I returned when I was in London last weekend to try again and this time the conditions helped me get some shots which capture some of the crispness of the architecture.

A bit about the Architects O'Donnell & Tuomey from Wikipedia : "The practice became widely known when their Irish Film Centre and Gallery of Photography won the Downes Medal, in 1992 and 1996 respectively. They have since designed a number of notable buildings, including the Lewis Glucksman Gallery at University College Cork (commemorated by An Post stamp in 2013 ), the Irish installation at the Venice Biennale 2004, and the Ranelagh Multidenominational School, which won the RIAI Triennial Gold Medal in 2005. Five of their projects were shortlisted for Stirling Prize: Ranelagh Multidenominational School in 1999, Lewis Glucksman Gallery in 2005, Lyric Theatre (Belfast) in 2011, An Gaeláras Irish Language Centre in 2012 and London School of Economics Saw Swee Hock Students' Centre in 2014."

Somehow when I think of Bukit Ho Swee, I always think of that Social Studies chapter where we learnt about the fire there... Well, anyway, was treated to a very fiery sunset while there a couple of days ago!
