The Jockey Club Innovation Tower, Polytechnic University, Hong Kong
I was mesmerised by the building when I first saw it and I knew right away I had to come back to explore this building with my camera. I was drinking a Japanese beer with a friend of mine who studies at this university; she mentioned that this building is actually designed by the late Zaha Hadid and a lot of people have taken photos of the building but they all look the same. Arrogantly, I immediately said I will come back and take one you have never seen before. I am pretty happy with the result but please call me out if you ever come across a take similar to this dated before 25/11/2016 ;).
Some technical points, this photo was taken at ISO2500, 1/60, f/5.6 with a Sony A7. Sometimes you get these noisy purple-ish tone in the shadows especially when the ISO is starting to be high. However I actually have stopped doing noise reduction in my photos for a long time and I didn't do any noise reduction again with this photo despite the higher than perfect ISO. The point I want to make is that don't be afraid of high ISOs and noise. The purpleish tone from the noise and the refracted street lights are playing an important role with the overall mood in this photo in my opinion. It's also important to note that different cameras have a different level of ISO tolerance so the ISO number I provided is only a reference but the overall main point remains.
Thanks for reading and have a lovely day :),

National Technical University of Ukraine (Kiev Polytechnic Institute)
The institute was founded on 31 August 1898 as the Kiev Polytechnic Institute of Emperor Alexander II, but its current building complex was not built until 1902. Until then, the institute was renting out its space at the building of Commercial School located on Vorovsky Street. At that time it had four departments: Mechanical, Chemical, Agricultural, and Civil Engineering. The first enrolment constituted 360 students. The leading Russian scientists Dmitri Mendeleev, Nikolai Zhukovsky and Kliment Arkadyevich Timiryazev gave substantial scientific and organizational assistance in the founding of the institute.

The Innovation, Science & Technology Building (IST), Florida Polytechnic University, Lakeland, Florida. Designed by Spanish architect Santiago Calatrava, the Florida Polytechnic University is the state’s newest and most innovative university, engineered from the ground up to push the boundaries of education in science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM).
The 162,000-square-foot, white-domed building is a moveable and functional work of art. The building includes a system of 94 louvered arms that raise and lower throughout the day providing passive lighting inside the second-floor atrium. The louvers track the sun above a glass roof. The oval-shaped building is ringed by curved metal pergolas that shade its outer terrace and walkways.
The building was the inspiration for the university’s logo which was created in 2017. Located in Lakeland, the heart of Florida’s High-Tech Corridor, Florida Poly provides cutting-edge degree programs that prepare graduates to take on today’s fastest-growing fields.

This amazing building is the design child of famed architect, Dr. Santiago Calatrava. The automatic fins on top of the structure open and close to allow efficient use of available light. This IST (Innovation, Science and Technology) building is home to an ultra fast super computer, a 3D printing lab and a host of additional teaching and learning devices. Oh, and there are a number of very intelligent geeks hanging around, as well, with more on the way.
Science, and Technology (IST) Building is the university's main facility. It houses 26 classrooms, faculty and administrative offices, seven labs–including a 3D printing lab, cybersecurity lab, and health informatics lab.
The building is also home to the school's digital library. Designed by Spanish architect Santiago Calatrava, the building includes 94 robotic louvers on the roof that move to accommodate changing sunlight patterns.

This is an image of the main building at Florida Polytechnic University , in Lakeland Florida.
I made the image for the Group 52 weeks , and the assignment was "repeating patterns".
Not my usual landscape . But you can see a Great Blue Heron flying on the right side . The building is surrounded by water . It is a very unusual building, hard for me to capture .

Meet the IST Building on the campus of Florida Polytechnic University in Lakeland, Florida. Designed by Spanish architect Dr. Santiago Calatrava, this is the main university facility.
I've driven by it on the I-4 several times, but today was the first time I've taken a moment to stop. The building has been well-photographed by many, and I'll throw my hat in the ring with this shot, taken Saturday, October 6, 2018.
