Two young friends were taking pictures of one another with their phones. I thought that is enchanting in the atmosphere of classic architecture.

This is a photography of Wilanow Palace which is located on the outskirts of Warsaw, Poland. The palace is beautifully appointed with lots of classic architecture, paintings, ornaments and sculptures. It is a popular tourist attraction and was crowded inside, when I visited. Strangely, though, outside was nice and quiet.
Berlin: Classic versus modern architecture.
A pity I could not visit the Dome of the Reichstag building this time. My visit occurred at the same time of the reunification 30th anniversary. Every monument had long queues and the streets were crowded with tourists. Police and prevention of terrorism made those days even worse.

The Juristische Bibliothek (Law Library) in Munich's Neues Rathaus (New Town Hall) is a stunning example of neo-Gothic architecture, completed in 1906. This historic library features intricate woodwork, elegant spiral staircases, and ornate iron railings. Its collection is primarily focused on legal literature, supporting administrative and judicial work in Munich, and is open to the public by appointment or guided tours. The library’s design, with its magnificent details and artistic ambiance, makes it a cultural treasure and a popular location for filming and photography.
Strand was once a movie theater on Duval St. in Key West, FL. It opened in the 1920's and is now a Walgreen's :/
The facade of the building was renovated and painted sometime in early 2000's. The building stands out amongst all the other attractions on Duval St.
For this shot, the architecture, colors and shadows caught my attention.
This is probably one of the most photographed architectural sites in Auckland. I love classic structures, so here goes. Much better in black. Please press L.
HISTORY
The Auckland Ferry building was designed by Alex Wiseman and built by Philcox and Sons at a cost of 67,944 pounds, a large sum for the day. It was completed in 1912 on land reclaimed by the Auckland Harbour Board.
ARCHITECTURE
The architectural style of this building is Edwardian Baroque. It is constructed of sandstone and brick with a base of Coromandel granite.
RESTORATION
In November 1982 a "B" classification was placed on the building by the New Zealand Historic Places Trust. Between 1986 and 1987 the Ferry building underwent a massive restoration inside and outside. Mid 1988 the scaffolding was removed and one of Auckland's true treasures was revealed. The Ferry building was not officially opened when it was built so on 5th November 1988, the Governor General, Sir Paul Reeves, officially opened the building.

At the corner of F and 10th Streets NW, the former flagship of Woodward & Lothrop—affectionately known as “Woodies”—still commands attention. Built in stages from 1887 to 1926 and expanded over time, this Beaux-Arts masterpiece boasts elaborate terra cotta detailing, neoclassical ornamentation, and a powerful presence in the heart of Washington, D.C. The building now houses government and commercial tenants, yet retains the splendor of its retail heyday. American flags fly proudly over richly ornamented entrances, while the morning sun crowns the cornice. Pedestrians and cyclists animate the historic intersection, weaving modern life into the enduring tapestry of this DC icon.

A new painting of The Serpentine Sackler Gallery, in London's Kensington Gardens, commissioned by Omnis, a leading provider of premium, architecturally inspired exterior solutions.
Expressionist artist, Stephen B Whatley - whose work has been published in TIME - is noted for his contemporary architectural paintings, for Buckingham Palace, the BBC and the Tower of London (where there is a permanent walkway of his series of 30 paintings at Tower Hill). His work is in private collections worldwide and other public collections including the London Transport Museum and Westminster Cathedral.
The artist made a series of drawings on location which inspired this oil painting - a new interpretation of the classic 1805 gunpowder store (still in military use until 1963) now called The Magazine; and its 2013 addition, a soaring, dramatic structure designed by architect, Zaha Hadid. The painting includes an interpretation of the playful fountain by Bertrand Lavier, installed in 2014.
The painting will have its first showing appropriately enough at the Serpentine Sackler Gallery, at the new Omnis Launch on May 12th.
Omnis is the integration of six established UK manufacturing companies and one US facility: SpeedDeck, Downer, CEP Claddings, CEP Architectural Façades, CEP Panels and Rigidal. For 50 years, they have been turning visions and blueprints into beautiful buildings. The launch event at the prestigious Serpentine Sackler Gallery, is the mark of the UK manufacturing businesses new beginnings. Building on the legacy, Omnis will now move forward and become a single source, next generation, exteriors solutions provider.

This striking black-and-white photograph captures the elegant columns of the Camera di Commercio (Chamber of Commerce) in Florence, Italy. The image exemplifies minimalist and architectural photography, focusing on the repeating patterns and texture of the stone pillars, which exude a sense of strength and stability. Located in the heart of Florence, the Camera di Commercio is a notable symbol of commerce and history, embodying the rich architectural heritage of the city. This close-up shot isolates the geometry and structure of the columns, offering a timeless glimpse into Florence's architectural finesse. The monochrome tone adds depth, emphasizing light and shadow to enhance the tactile quality of the stone and the serene rhythm of the design.
My painting of Saint James on display in the sanctuary of St James’s RC Church, Spanish Place in London W1 - just after the special Mass celebrating the Feast Day of St James, on July 25, 2025.
Sadly, I was unable to attend the evening Mass this year and my attention was drawn to this beautiful photograph - showing my painting of Saint James on display - taken by the Spanish Embassy and posted on Twitter (X.com) - very touching to see.
My 2013 painting was acquired by the church that year and hangs usually in the Rectory connected to St James’s.
