Estadio Santiago Bernabeu, Real Madrid.

Brilliant.. keep us posted.... upon first look - I thought it was a cruise ship being put together...
Keep well Andy... Cheers from - Dj.. UK.

Thanks Dave! I see what you mean about ship construction!
Stay safe!!!

Architects Joy, everybody else's point of view.

Are you an architect or everyone else Maurice???

Looks wonderful in the sunshine. All systems go !

Well, it seemed to be slow progress at the time, but what do I know; I'm no construction engineer!!!
Thank you,.Jean!

Incredible scenery, well taken

Many thanks, Leon!

Superbe !!!

Thank you,.Boro!!

Una construcción gigantesca que la fotografiaste con mucho detalle a pesar de su dificultad

Gracias, Jose Manuel, por tu amable comentario!

Superbe..Ça va être bientôt fini.... Bon dimanche.

Thank you, Malik!

And it has to be stable even though it is incomplete. Amazing view.

Many thanks, Ronald. I think it isn't due for completion until 2022. In the meantime, Real Madrid are having to play their home games at their training ground. This is OK as they can't have crowds of fans anyway!!!

look like space lab --schitterend andy

Yes, I agree, thank you, Fred!

I like the way you took it, many lines crossing in al directions but not messy at the same time ++++++++

Yes, thank you, Isabel. One metre either side and it would indeed have looked messy!!!

Like a modern sculpture!

Yes, I agree; thank you,.Gudrun!

Work in progress; well composed Andy.
Enjoy your Sunday.

Thank you, Jaap!

Congratiolations for yesterday, Andy ! The end of the crisis ?

Sorry??? ... AHH!! You mean the football result last night??? Well, much better yes!!! Thank you, Ulrich!

Great photo Andy, plenty to look at when enlarged fully.
Have a good week.
Regards Peter

Thank you, Peter!

Espectacular imagem, Andy!!

Thank you, Judite!

It doesn't look as chaotic as the first few shots you took Andy................it reminds me of a giant Meccano set!

Thanks, Keith!
I never had meccano as a child. Far too expensive.

Great Image Andy don't know what it is but is a big construction super Image.
Regards TOZ

Thank you!
Sorry Gordon. I explained it with the many other photos I've uploaded of it this past year. I forget there are always new people to my gallery!
Real Madrid (a rather famous association football club!) are putting a retractible roof on their iconic stadium, the Estadio Santiago Bernabeu, in the middle of Madrid. I used to live nearby so took many shots of its progress. I moved away from there recently but have a backlog of shots.

So very impressive, Andy !!! SPECTACULAR !! Have a great Sunday !!

Les grands moyens ici, grand chantier et belle image !**************

Wer zahlt denn das?!

The owner of the club, one Señor Florentino Perez owns one of the biggest construction companies in Spain.

This is always quite interesting...
the president has a construction company and the money comes from different banks.
I already had the fear that the city "once again" is asked to pay.
Honestly, as an Italian I know from my own countrymen how much one can be attached to soccer. It's not much different in Spain. But if my club has over 600 million euros in debt and now still a stadium for over 500 million should / will finance. In the end, it's the fans who spend a lot of money on a ticket and then see their club empty-handed. That in European soccer no one intervenes there explains the business section of our newspapers us not, but that it is a sum that never comes to zero, probably everyone knows ... but no one cares.

There have been many shady dealings in football for as long as there has been money in the game.

Well, I know far more than I am prepared to write here, Katja, as I have no wish to be sued by Sr Florentino!!!

Amazing how it all comes together, just a giant meccano set !! I spent hours playing with that, there are still meccano groups

As I mentioned to Keith, Peter, I feel bitterly resentful that meccano was just too expensive for me and my siblings. It's probably why none of us ever went near the sciences! What a great loss to the world of British industrial innovation! :o)

Hala Madrid¡¡¡

Thank you, Mario!

Now that is composition. Lots to see but never confusing.

A kind compliment, John. Many thanks!

Many different system are together here!!
And you have done such a wonderful picture with them!
Great composition,Andy!!

Best wishes
Füsun

Outstanding shot, Andy!

Many thanks, * ઇઉ *!

An interesting construction scene, Andy.

Well taken Andy. Keep us posted.

George,
Rosa,
Thank you, both!

Some great angles in there!

Thank you, Denis!

Impresionante, nunca pensé que era el Bernabéu parece eso un chip Yard no un stadium, probablemente lo está remodelando, para cuando podamos volver a visitarlo, magnífica captura, saludos cordiales Salud

Thank you, Rebeca. I have posted many of these last year and they are in an album here: www.ipernity.com/doc/2247598/album/1279798
The idea seems to be to put a roof on it and make it look ridiculous!!!

Oh well, it is looking nice and smart
