Santiago Bernabéu Station

The Santiago Bernabéu is a football stadium in Madrid, Spain. It is the home of Real Madrid. Work on the grounds started on October 27, 1944. Originally called Estadio Chamartín after Madrid's previous stadium, it was inaugurated in December 1947. Real Madrid officially adopted the present name, Estadio Santiago Bernabéu, on January 4, 1955 in honor of the club president Santiago Bernabéu.

The capacity has changed frequently, peaking at 120,000 after a 1953 expansion. Since then there have been a number of reductions due to modernisations (the last standing places went away in 1998/99 in response to UEFA regulations which forbids standing at matches in the UEFA competition), countered to some extent by expansions. The last change was an increase of about five thousand to a capacity of 80,354, effected in 2003. A plan to add a retractable roof has been announced.

Really lovely treatment for a compelling composition. I agree there needs to be a very small crop on the left.

I like the brightness, but it does need the crop that was mentioned previously. Would have been nice to see more of a story within the pic.

Hi, Canis Major, Well Body
It depends on ones point of view.In my Opinion Its not Opulent, Because "Opulent , Possessing or exhibiting great wealth; affluent.rich and superior in quality"
Im not Superior, Its just a Picture.
Let's me Explained to you, flickr is a community of people with common interests..."PICTURES, Art, Expresion etc..." Just Pictures.
