I’ve always loved this shot so I hope you’ll forgive the fact it’s noisy and has only a bleak grey sky. It was taken from Currumbin Rocks looking towards Surfers Paradise, a few miles distance as the seagull flies, Gold Coast, Australia.

The 2004 Olympics Stadium of Athens "Spyros Louis", Athens, Greece.
Originally designed in 1980, but redesigned for the Olympics by Santiago Calatrava. The roof is quite a spectacle.
I think it looks better without people in it.
Logic - Spectator - Listen
Insha'Allah we all can see
That God is the goodness in you and me
No religion has ownership
See, the Quran and the Bible and the Torah were all wrote with ink
See, I think the masses are miseducated
See, most of the politicians were born racist
See, it's obvious that somehow we're all related
Million of years back, before we separated
Nothing like a good roll and scratch after a long day swatting flies. Wild horses, Arizona.
And how about a caption by the spectator: "You look SO silly".
When the orangutan family with their offspring was let out onto the outside parts of the enclosure it didn't take long for a huge crowd to gather and watch them. At first they didn't seem to care but after a while they all took refuge to parts where they couldn't be seen. Only this intrepid little fellow stayed visible and started to watch the spectators.
It is the spectator, and not life, that art really mirrors.
Oscar Wilde.
Last of the series but not the least. I hope you enjoy them as much as I did making them. Thank you all for your kind thoughts.
Oscar Fingal O'Flahertie Wills Wilde (16 October 1854 – 30 November 1900) was a prolific Irish writer who wrote plays, fiction, essays, and poetry. After writing in different forms throughout the 1880s, he became one of London's most popular playwrights in the early 1890s. He is best remembered for his epigrams and plays, the novel The Picture of Dorian Gray, as well as the circumstances of his imprisonment and early death.
Wilde's parents were successful Anglo-Irish, Dublin intellectuals. Their son became fluent in French and German early in life. At university, Wilde read Greats; he proved himself to be an outstanding classicist, first at Dublin, then at Oxford. He became known for his involvement in the rising philosophy of aestheticism, led by two of his tutors, Walter Pater and John Ruskin. After university, Wilde moved to London into fashionable cultural and social circles.
As a spokesman for aestheticism, he tried his hand at various literary activities: he published a book of poems, lectured in the United States and Canada on the new "English Renaissance in Art", and then returned to London where he worked prolifically as a journalist. Known for his biting wit, flamboyant dress and glittering conversation, Wilde became one of the best-known personalities of his day. At the turn of the 1890s, he refined his ideas about the supremacy of art in a series of dialogues and essays, and incorporated themes of decadence, duplicity, and beauty into his only novel, The Picture of Dorian Gray (1890). The opportunity to construct aesthetic details precisely, and combine them with larger social themes, drew Wilde to write drama. He wrote Salome (1891) in French in Paris but it was refused a licence for England due to the absolute prohibition of Biblical subjects on the English stage. Unperturbed, Wilde produced four society comedies in the early 1890s, which made him one of the most successful playwrights of late Victorian London. Source Wikipedia.

I always want to be a spectator behind my cameras.
