About Subject background: Third in line of my proofs why my neck is out of order these days =)

This time, you see the Flatiron in low light. Unfortunately, the great building has a lot of adverts these days.

PS concept: BW conversion with the channel mixer, mild work on levels.

Great WA shot, good choice on the B&W, lots of interesting lines and detail, superb lighting. Excellent work.

although suffering from converging verticals it works in this image, great!


George Black   {K:101993} 8/17/2005
Good composition. The short lens does it again! great angles and the layers of bold signs are just right. The tonality and composition do create a sort of somber statement that is surprising--and effective.

All the best,
--George

Hi Thilo! I like how the lamp with signs and the building are almost colliding in the air :) Nice light & tones!

I've been standing on exactly this corner many of times looking at the amazing Flatiron Building.....I've never seen it like this though...almost anorectic...the wonder of a wide angle.....another great shot and great angle from THE city

These buildings are great old designs. There is one on a corner in Cambridge (Boston) that I took some shots of in twilight. (Didn't work out so well)
There is also a nice one of these here in Toronto.
Great shot, just a little off kilter, intentionally I'm sure.

Wonderful consolidation and amazing verticals, excellent!


Todd Miller   {K:16464} 8/17/2005
love the tones and 14mm here...great perspective, hope your neck isn't too sore-i'd say it's worth it though!

Excellent wide angle capture Thilo with great composition, it came out dramatically with the conversion to B&W, I like it allot,
very well done,
Regards,


Mark Beltran   {K:32612} 8/18/2005
If you could bring a recliner along, this would be the view. I really like this wide angle.


Kiarang Alaei   {K:49007} 8/18/2005
Interesting and different street shot, with a very good decisive moment and nice perspective...Awesome!


Hugo de Wolf   {K:185017} 8/18/2005
Hi Thilo, when did you take this one? When I was in NYC in Feb, this building was completely covered, and surrounded by scaffolding. Loe the perspective as well as the toning. It emphasises the eiht very well. Good shot!

Cheers,

Hugo


Thilo Bayer   {K:50301} 8/18/2005
Hi Hugo,

it was around Xmas. A good friend of mine was there in June and showed me pics where the whole building looks like an add.

I have some older shots which I will post - Flatiron completely nude =)

that's a neckbreaker alright! cool shot Thilo. I did not go see the flatiron building when I was there... excuse for another trip. :)


Lori Stitt   {K:74437} 8/19/2005
EXCELLENT!

I expect to see this one with an award!
Lori :)

Hi Thilo,einmal mehr "New York wie ich es sehe"...fabelhaft und sehr individuell.
LG,Ursula


Roberto Arcari Farinetti   {K:179570} 8/20/2005
ohhhhhhhhhhh.. excellent the perspective to lines that converge! an optimal contrast with the sky and the parts to earth! moreover the "trust and the blow of the flash effect" have created one beautiful formulation of the result!
have a wonderful week end

ich mag die aufgezeigte Möglichkeit des Fisheye Dinge aus Ihrem Größenverhältnis zu reissen und neu zu ordnen...

kommt gut in b&w
