- Info View of the south balcony heading to the Mediterranean Sea of the Monte Carlo casino in Monaco. The building hosts a casino, the Grand Théâtre de Monte Carlo and the office of Les Ballets de Monte Carlo. The construction followed the plans of Parisian architect Gobineau de la Bretonnerie and took 7 years to complete until it was inagurated in 1853. The casino is owned and operated by a public company, controlled by the governemtn and ruling family, that also owns the principal hotels, sports clubs and restaurants, but does not allow the entrance to Monaco citizens.

NeutralFine architecture, but it's slightly tilted. Is it because of the angle? 😄 ArionEstar 😜 (talk) 21:05, 14 August 2016 (UTC)- Sorry, ArionEstar, I see no tilt, what are you talking about? Ok, I admit, there was a tilt, corrected now :) Poco2 21:13, 14 August 2016 (UTC)

- Question - Sorry how? Did you lose some? Camera stolen again? -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 04:31, 15 August 2016 (UTC)
- No, nothing like that, Ikan. I hope I can say the same beginning of October after a long trip. I guess Arion referred to this. I had to send some of my pictures from Romania to this DR after I got a hint in QI about the death's year of the architect. A pity. Poco2 13:03, 15 August 2016 (UTC)
- That's really too bad. I'm glad your camera wasn't stolen, though. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 04:33, 16 August 2016 (UTC)

OpposeThe shadows are too harsh for me. Would be better on an overcast day IMO. --King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 04:42, 15 August 2016 (UTC)- KoH, I've reworked the curves a bit, what do you think? Poco2 07:42, 15 August 2016 (UTC)
- Neutral It's less distracting now so I'll withdraw my opposition, but still not ideal. --King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 00:59, 16 August 2016 (UTC)
