New on 500px : Archway in the College by JJFarquitectos by JJFarquitectos

Archway in the Wren Library in Cambridge.

The Wren Library is the library of Trinity College in Cambridge. It was designed by Christopher Wren in 1676 and completed in 1695.

The library is a single large room built over an open colonnade on the ground floor of Nevile’s Court. The floor of the library proper within the upper storey lies several feet below the external division between the two storeys, reconciling the demands of use with the harmony of architectural proportion. It is credited as being one of the first libraries to be built with large windows to give comfortable light levels to aid readers.

New on 500px : Radcliffe Camera at Sunset by rjdavies30 by rjdavies30

The Radcliffe Camera (Camera, meaning “room” in Latin; colloquially, “Rad Cam” or “The Camera”) is a building of Oxford University, England, designed by James Gibbs in neo-classical style and built in 1737–1749 to house the Radcliffe Science Library. It is sited to the south of the Old Bodleian, north of St. Mary’s Church, and between Brasenose College to the west and All Souls College to the east.

The Library’s construction and maintenance was funded from the estate of John Radcliffe, a notable doctor, who left £40,000 upon his death in 1714. According to the terms of his will, construction only began in 1737, although the intervening period saw the complex purchase of the site. The exterior was complete in 1747 and the interior finished by 1748, although the Library’s opening was delayed until 13 April 1749. (Wiki)

An Oxford college. This is a bit experimental having been put through Tonality Pro and then with a ‘glass sky’, as the existing sky was a bit dull. I don’t know if it works, but hope people like))
