Fascinating structure you picture in the story section. One guess it could be a celing, but don't know what kind. :-)

It is part of the Siambr (debating chamber) in the Senedd (pronounced Sen-eth) - it is Welsh for Parliament/Senate, which isn't exactly what it is in legal terms.

It is the Welsh Assembly building where our elected Assembly Members hold their public debates and committee meetings. It is gorgeous. Iconic piece of architecture and also very eco friendly. Superb design. I am thinking of doing a diary on it but time doesn't permit right now. Here is another shot of the upper level from the public part of the building.

I didn't say figuring I had an unfair advantage.

Any idiot can face a crisis - it's day to day living that wears you out.

Looks really like a great building. I would welcome a diary, when ever it fits your schedule. :-)

I'll take more of my own photos at some point soon. I've been commissioned to take photos of an event there in a couple of weeks so I can get some night time shots too. Then I ought to have enough for a diary!
