Architecture Gallery

Architecture embodies form, shape, geometry, and structure. It is a medium for texture and play of light. It serves a function while expressing a statement: religious reverence, state-of-the-art technological achievement, pragmatic ingenuity. The photography in this gallery depicts architecture from monuments predating the Egyptian Pyramids to modern constructions. Whether the structure is at its glorious pinnacle or crumbing ruins, these images capture the subjects’ inherent beauty.

Please note that some subjects span several categories (e.g., lighthouse images could be filed under either “Seascapes” or “Architecture”). You may wish to view multiple galleries for related images
