I stopped the car and leaned out of the window with my camera to capture this jaw-dropping building

Artisans hand-place 144,000 tiles to the exterior of the Universal Stella Nova Resort in Orlando, Florida.

This extremely unusual – and no-less stunning – architectural photograph was captured by Shannon Rose O'Shea. Shannon spends most of her time photographing wildlife, but when she was driving past the Universal Stella Nova Resort, she couldn't resist the photographic opportunity. She told me: "When I saw the amazing colors of the tiles, the spaceship-styled windows, the artisans working on the scaffolding and the leading lines, I knew I had to take the photo."

The problem was, Shannon was driving past in her car. Not wanting to miss the ideal light, she said: "I stopped on a very busy street with a lot of traffic and construction vehicles and shot from the open car window." Armed with her trusty Canon EOS 90D and Canon EF 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6L IS II USM, she managed to capture the moment.
