My godness can people avoid using HDR on their pictures so intensively?

I'm going to second both previous comments.

Pssst. It's "Mileniwm", not "Mileniwn". (But it is a stupid name in any language -- they should have stuck with calling it the Cardiff Bay Opera House/ Tŷ Opera Bae Caerdydd.)

Anyway, I disagree with the previous commenters. It's a magnificent building with an acoustic that is just perfect for opera. And it fits in really well to the townscape -- your pictures don't show the way it defines the end of James Street.

Thanks for the pssst, James. I was wondering if the stylishness of the photography was less than flattering for the building.

I also second what the first two commenters said...whatever HDR is..it makes the building's words against the backdrop really freaky...nice texturing though on the design itself!

From what I've seen of the building on Torchwood/Dr Who, its a much nicer project than those photos show.
