  What lens did you use? Try it with an ultra-wide angle.

  A good suggestion from randomway there,
  if only to show the tops of the trusses-

  Its maybe one of those pictures that sounds like a good idea while you’re going there,
  but doesn’t quite live up to expectations when you get there-

  It would make a great background-
  if there was a single point of interest at any level,
  the shot would be transformed,
  and the confusion of structure and shadow could be turned to advantage.

  Interesting picture,
  and good to see it at this scale-
