Passenger train station terminal building, Durango City, Durango, Mexico

This historic terminal building has been completely renovated and restored while keeping as many of the original fixtures and doors as possible.
I happened to have taken these pictures on a very bright sunny day and although I was inside you can see how bright it was. Any CC is greatly appreciated as the small size of the lofty Lobby made it difficult to capture the entire ceiling in a good shot, and I am curios what everyone thinks of the composition and colors. All these pictures are straight out of the camera without any PP

When you take picture of architectural structures we must try to minimize perspective distortion to compete in line with what you want to photograph.

For example you go on the centre and take a whole picture of the ceiling.

If the wide angle of your camera is not large enough it's better to make many more individual shots instead only one with a more angled shot.

Note:
The perspective distorsion can be reduced using a photoeditor but it's a pain and also the result is affected from a loss of final quality.

I am not sure I completely understand what you’re trying to say.
