    That’s a superb photo of the building! I wish I had taken more photos when I was there–guess it’s a good excuse to go back!

    I really dig the architecture of the building! Your photo of it is great. There is the contrast between dark clouds and sunny garden and field, with the building in middle. Me likes. :)
