La photo entre amis: paysage urbain / cityscape

La photo entre amis is a small Facebook photo group that a friend and I just started a few months ago. Each one of us gets his/her turn to pick a theme. The theme being treated here is: cityscape.

Basilica of Koekelberg (part I): the outside by day

Here is a building I’ve seen my whole life. It’s such an emblem in Brussels, and yet I find it so ugly. No offense but I really don’t like it -at all. However, I see it differently now that I’ve spent so many hours around it, inside of it… during the day…and at night. Having lived in San Francisco, it just reminds me everyday that some art deco can be beautiful (like the Golden Gate Bridge), and some can be just awful (like the National Basilica of the Sacred Heart in Koekelberg).
