1891 Basilica

I shot this today on a cloudy midday in Manila. This is the facade of the Basilica of San Sebastian, the only all-steel basilica in the world.

was there any kind of filter on these? The trim looks pink to me.

Just a UV filter.

So is the building actually green with pink trim or are my eyes just messing with me?

I love the angle you got in these shots. Makes me feel so dwarfed by the building.

It was newly painted in green. No pink trim. Thanks. This is a tourist spot in my country. The entire church is made of steel.
