Great shot! Looks like a majestic place!

Appears to be a giant golden Buddha subtle without distracting details.

Majestic.

Carol: It is the Paramount Theater in Oakland, CA and placed on the National Historic Landmark in 1977.

Sukhmandir: Haha, you have a vivid imagination. I originally thought it looked like an "Oscar" statue, but it's actually suppose to be a waterfall.

Lina: Art deco majestic...

Nice shot of the Paramount.
It's funny, I can sort of see the abstract-Buddha thing, too :)

An abstract Buddha was my first impressions. It sure is an impressive sight, the colours and design are kinda funky...espcially when the picture is enlarged.

I first thought it was a statue.

I also thought it was some sort of art deco buddha but when I magnified it I could see the waves in front of it.

I liked the slogan underneath. "Always the best show in town."

Very intriguing post today.

Love the shot. I love abstract style photography and it is nice that many commenters see different things.
