About This photo brings together various dimensions that I like. Architecture, color, light, perspective and a feeling of 3D especially when looking outside the windows and into the city streets. Nothing fancy but for some reason I like the results.

Thilo Bayer   {K:50301} 12/5/2005
Hi Paul,

oh wow, what a color orgy! =)

I like the combination of the windows and the repeating colors on the floor. MAYBE it would be an idea just to shoot the colors on the floor as well =)

best wishes,
Thilo


Sheila Carson   {K:5924} 12/5/2005
Wow! It's beautiful Paul. There's so much great stuff to look at! Well done!


Paul's Photos   {K:34954} 12/5/2005
Thanks Thilo, we must think a like because I did take photos of the colors on the floor as well and they turned out nicely....


kike Calvo   {K:11282} 12/5/2005
Hola Paul.
Me encanta el juego que se produce entre las luces y colores del vidrio y sus reflejos en el suelo. Estoy de acuerdo contigo que esto produce una sensacion de tres dimensiones fabulosa. Un trabajo excelente.
Un saludo amigo
kike


Linda Bique   {K:73856} 12/5/2005
Paul this is bright, bold, and exciting, I love it, I can see why you were drawn to this one, the light patterns are fantastic and the geometries are wonderful too. Excellent work!!

You are very good at thsi architectural type of shot. Nice work!

Best wishes Neil


L. Gould   {K:11900} 12/5/2005
Wow! Nothing fancy--I would disagree. I love the way the light is shining through the glass and reflecting a prism on the floor. Really great lines here. :)


Endre Novak   {K:12534} 12/5/2005
Very nice effect, great clarity.
Clever shot.

Excellent architecture and light Paul!
Beautiful composition!
Congrats!
Roberto.


Rina     {K:26519} 12/7/2005
Amazing capture Paul. Nothing fancy, you say? Doubt it. The perspective adds a great sense of open space and a feeling of being pulled into the image. And the reflected colours... wow... icing on the cake.

Truly an impressive composition.
Cheers
Rina

p.s. any word on competition results...?


Angelo Villaschi   {K:49617} 12/7/2005
Nice colours, Paul.

I saved a copy of your forum thread "Usefilm Photographers Who Left", as I could easily predict it would be removed.

Perhaps that kind of action explains why some chose to stop contributing, or leave. It's happened very often, and it will continue to happen.

Regards,
Angelo.


Zeev Scharf   {K:24593} 12/7/2005
Beautiful colorful capture Paul,the lighting and colors are magnificent
Bravo my friend
Many thanks for nice remark on "Old nice bridge"
Best regards


Simone Tagliaferri   {K:28180} 12/7/2005
Bellissima. Una foto superba dai colori veramente eccezionali. Mi piace molto anche il taglio che le hai dato.


Dan Lightner   {K:12684} 12/7/2005
A kalidoscope of color , excellent.

Dan


Mark Wlaz   {K:4558} 12/7/2005
I've never seen "stained glass" used in such a modernistic piece of architecture / art ... and you did a beautiful job capturing it.
A very neat aspect of the image is the portion of the floor that is not bathed in the bright colored light, but which is in the background / far corner of the building, and is devoid of color yet the pattern of the floor stands out so vividly.
Excellent.


Alison Du Flon   {K:35642} 12/8/2005
Great composition and a wonderful and beautiful shot. Alison


Judi Liosatos   {K:34029} 12/8/2005
Incredible capture of the light spectrum across the floors. Definitely an image worth capturing.

Judi


Amna Al Shamsi   {K:20767} 12/8/2005
I like this one too, it looks really beautiful with these colors . Unusual architecture photo.

P.S why did they remove the forum post?


Manu     {K:13030} 12/8/2005
Keep them simple...like this for all the reasons you mention...well done, Paul

Cheers

Gorgeous magic light here Paul!

Danny Brannigan   {K:16126} 12/9/2005
A superb capture Paul. Well spotted and great exposure.


Dirck DuFlon   {K:35779} 12/9/2005
Pretty cool shot, Paul! It seems like that structure would be rather cold and utilitarian were it not for the playful colored light cast by the windows. Nice architectural lines - kind of 'German' feeling to me!


donato r.   {K:16361} 12/9/2005
Splendide geometrie ed eccellenti giochi cromatici!
ciao d.


Margaret Sturgess   {K:49403} 12/9/2005
Wonderful mix of light, shapes and colours with excellent detail in every part of it. So well seen and perfectly taken
Margaret
Since the threads re 'losing of members' has been deleted, wondered if you knew that Neil Dolman has been kicked off the site, I think you might sometimes comment on his uploads.


D A   {K:9} 12/9/2005
The reflection of the colors from the windows throughout the scene is gorgeous.


Frits Selier   {K:455} 12/10/2005
nice play of colors


Mark Sherman   {K:15436} 12/18/2005
It has the joy of being a kid with the backdrop of the real world on the right hand side.


Hugo de Wolf   {K:184670} 12/19/2005
Hi Paul, Superb lighting effect; couldn't have created it otherwise than select the right moment to take this shot. Great composition, too. Very impressive image.

Ina Nicolae   {K:44481} 12/24/2005
Superb indoor rainbow Paul! "Nothing fancy" you say - but I think it's absolutely fancy and complex - patterns and perspective, colors and light, up close and faraway, up and down, inside and outside. Exceptional! Best regards and Season's Greetings, Ina


Mira Novianti   {K:592} 12/26/2005

Asim Roy   {K:9701} 1/3/2006
An exceptional colourful view, lovely 3D effect on the floor, love, asim


Roger Williams   {K:82213} 1/4/2006
Everytime I get a comment from you, Paul, I chase over to your portfolio hoping you will have posted another photo. I do so love your work... This was posted a month ago and it is great. But I feel deprived! Have you ever experimented with taking stereo photos? Like you, I love that sense of depth and perspective, and logically that's where one should end up. I've tried it with mixed results...


Morc Piantedos   {K:20496} 1/9/2006
a very intersting " caleindoscopal" vision. i like how you have captured this tonal gamma.
regards
marco


karen clarke   {K:18847} 1/9/2006
This is very cool, I love how the color casts across the floor adding some drama to the shot, and how it also can be on the stairs and railing. Very well composed shot, very cool~


Bea Friedli   {K:9816} 1/9/2006
wow..very cool ! I love the shapes and colors with play on the shadows ! nice eye !


Kambiz K   {K:37420} 1/25/2006
Love the composition, colours and the angle of view.


Eb Mueller   {K:22087} 2/22/2006
Of course, this a very impressive architectural endering! I can see why you would have been impressed with this scene. The colours are pastel but well saturated and the overall tonal quality is pleasant counterpoint. Dimensionality is enhanced by the large detailed foreground, the receeding stairways and metalwork and views through the glass.
Eb


Peepeye Photography   {K:91} 2/23/2006
Cool! Great colors & location.


Larry Hammond   {K:16631} 2/23/2006

Kevin H   {K:22492} 2/28/2006
Really love the lighting and darkness, really brings out those beautiful colors. I would maybe just focus on the windows and posibly include a beem. Keep up the good work.


Dan Lightner   {K:12684} 3/5/2006
Outstanding capture.

Dan


Lori Stitt   {K:74434} 3/10/2006
AWESOME....I could never pass this one up!
What a neat scene this is.
REALLY love this one, for the same reasons you mention.

Good job,
Lori :)


Irenka Daniluk   {K:8011} 3/12/2006
Fantastic festival of colours!


Gabriel Fuentes   {K:6565} 3/18/2006
Your use of chromatic light, both in the filter-like panes and as spilled light rendered on the floor, dramatically marks the slightly off-center VP (vanishing point) which locates the light source, making a complex presentation of forms appear geometrically simple. Masterful Señor Paul! I’d place this image at the end of a long hall I need people to walk through, sure that they will be alluringly attracted to it.


Paul's Photos   {K:34954} 3/19/2006
Thanks for you comment.... I am glad that you enjoy the photo. I like your idea of placing it at an end of a long hallway...


Luby Adam   {K:1306} 3/27/2006

My goodness wat a magical lights in here Paul!! Outstanding work! Gongrats,the composition fits well in this project,regards,Riny


hAmTa    {K:600} 10/1/2006
Realy nice scene and well-done picture. in my eye, softness of colours and lights on the floor is in opposite of sharpness of vertical and horizental lines (of columns, stairs and other parts of construction)and this is the thing which make it lovely and magic. specially I like to look at the colours in the bottom of the picture those seems want to cross the frame and glow on the viewr!

Be nice and happy!


Michele Carlsen   {K:122909} 11/5/2006
WoW ! First let me congratulate You on the award ! Well deserved ! Excellent point of view and also love the colors and the architecture ... Unique composition ...
