About Subject background: You see the "Hacke'sche Höfe" in Berlin, a famous court full of restaurants and craftsmen. My D70 was lying on the floor. And my Photoshop did some tweaks ;-)

Sorry for the lack of activity these days. I was some days off for Berlin and brought some pictures with me. My friends tribute tour is not over yet (in fact, there are some very important people missing!), but I have to take a mild break for creativity reasons.

I will comment on your pictures very soon. Just 136 left =)

You are going to affect my neck too if I keep looking at this much longer...


Paul Royer   {K:1824} 11/3/2005
Thilo This is a great shot with a wide angle lens. The blue sky compliments the colours in the buildings. Fantastic idea and great work.

Regards

Paul

hey there! this is off the charts amazing. the trapazoidal shape is stunning and the tonal complements between the sky and building work really well together. your creative break seems to be paying off tremendously. a perfect 7777777

Todd Miller   {K:16464} 11/3/2005
excellent shot thilo...my favorite neckbreaker thus far! love everything, the geometry, the wide angle (of course) and the tones. great work putting the camera on the ground...nobody else would think of that.


Andre Denis   {K:55922} 11/3/2005
Hi Thilo,
Welcome back! It's funny how you can pick out certain people's photos without looking at the names below. This one has the "Thilo" signiture all over it. It is a really powerful vertigo inducing shot!
Looking forward to seeing more.
Andre


Petal Wijnen   {K:47829} 11/3/2005

Linda Bique   {K:73877} 11/3/2005
Hi Thilo, glad to see you back, I missed you...this is definitely a neckbreaker, very well taken, great perspective, wonderful colors, I like the blue of the sky reflected in the buildings and the negative space...a perfect dof with nice details...well done..bet it would be great in black and white too...Linda

Many thanks for commenting on "Moody river iR"
You are so right regarding the long exposure affecting the sharpness in the trees 13 Sec.
in those situations I will have to shot at much higher Iso,that one was at 200
My very best regards


Roberto Arcari Farinetti   {K:177201} 11/4/2005
wooww thilo.. a marvelous point of view and original idea.. i like it so much the colors and contrsìast!!

YESSS! Definitely GREAT neckbreaking stuff ... love the angle, the colours! Congrats, Thilo!


Tony Diana   {K:13396} 11/4/2005
Magnífica composición


Sven Burkhard   {K:3477} 11/4/2005
Wircklich schöne und Interessante Komposition! "Look up..." vielleicht sollte man das öffters machen! ;)

Schöne Farben und tolles Licht. Ich mag die Stimmung die das Licht gibt. Dass Goldene glänzen der Mauern und der strahlend schöne Blaue Himmel passen gut zusammen.

Beste Wünsche, Sven


kouichi     {K:-640} 11/4/2005
pentagonal blue sky is beautiful.
very nice perspective.
i like sigma!


Mark Beltran   {K:32612} 11/4/2005
It doesn't have that Photoshop look to it, which to me is difficult not to achieve. The illusion is very effective. Beautifully done.


Maria Luisa Vial   {K:36017} 11/4/2005
Wonderful composition and wonderful perspective... Love the colors and details... Great architectural shot... The sky as always is ownderful... Very well exposed... The reflections of the sky in the windows look really great...

Cheers,

MaLuisa

Fadel J   {K:13584} 11/6/2005
Great vision and fantastic perspective Thilo, with beautiful exposure and colors as always!


Carsten Ranke   {K:14453} 11/6/2005
Breathtaking ! Very imaginative shot and perfect PS work (composite for compensation of dynamic range, and perspective tweak, I guess)

Cheers
Carsten


Ameed El-Ghoul   {K:42188} 11/6/2005

Dizzying composition. It seems ready to collapse. Nice colors too! Regards, Claude


Thilo Bayer   {K:50301} 11/9/2005
Hallo Sven,

danke für die freundlichen Worte und die konstruktive Kritik. Es hilft zumindest manchmal, mit einem Weitwinkel nach oben zu schauen. Dann kommt wirklich "alles Gute von oben". =)

Grüße, Thilo


Thilo Bayer   {K:50301} 11/9/2005
