Karina Brys   {K:16541} 11/4/2005
Impressive!


Roberto Carli   {K:13689} 11/4/2005
I see it just a bit underexposed in foreground,but may be my monitor settings.This kind of picture isn't easy to expose in right way,i think you have made a very good job in framing and compositie!!!!
Best.


Jeanette Hägglund   {K:59796} 11/4/2005
Golden floating blocks ---- as it seems, ice surreal effect you got here Thilo!

Stefan Engström   {K:24473} 11/4/2005
Great time to photograph these. Certainly capture what seems to me must be the essence of this piece. Did you bracket the aperture? A little deeper dof might've been nice too.


Photobrazil da Silva   {K:945} 11/4/2005
a very beautiful image


metoni .   {K:23320} 11/4/2005

Yahya El Hosafy   {K:8366} 11/4/2005
wonderfull scene.
very nice angle.
well done.


Luke Luther   {K:14549} 11/5/2005
great abstract, Thilo...the TN does not really give away the whole image. I like the gold reflecting light.


Todd Miller   {K:16461} 11/5/2005
silence all over the place....that could be a good title as well. lovely shot, the somber mood is expressed well here. nicely done Thilo.


Linda Bique   {K:73856} 11/5/2005
A deeply sad time in history Thilo and a wonderful remembrance. The golden coffins/blocks almost seem to be floating in the air, great layering effect adding depth. The repeating shapes and form make a very nice abstract, very nicely done...Linda


Erik Neldner   {K:10896} 11/5/2005
yeah t,
nicely captured. i was at this place when under construction. can't wait to back to berlin for so many reasons......
cheers,
e


Andre Denis   {K:55471} 11/5/2005
Wonderful perspective for a sombre subject matter. A very well presented image Thilo.

Beautiful as well as powerful....

Hi Thilo! Gold and black ... always a dramatic and elegant combination. Very nice simplicity here, makes a very beautiful abstract with excellent light!


Roberto Arcari Farinetti   {K:176790} 11/5/2005

Hi Thilo,
very nice capture with beautiful light and minimal composition.. inclusion of a human element might be nice and helpful to get an idea of the scale ..
cheers
Baki


karen clarke   {K:18847} 11/6/2005
Very nice, I like the golden colors and the fact that it looks like they are floating in space. Great abstract~


Burak Tanriover   {K:16604} 11/6/2005
Hello Thilo,
very nice work,
the lighting is very beautiful.
I like also the composition.
Best wishes,
Burak


Ameed El-Ghoul   {K:42023} 11/6/2005
Thilo, this capture for sure has your signeture my dear, very well seen and captured, I like to the maximum, another super 7, cheers my friend,


Gertrud Gozner   {K:14222} 11/7/2005
I like the golden reflections... great abstract, Thilo! G.


Thilo Bayer   {K:50301} 11/7/2005
Hi Luis,

thanks for the kind comment. It's even more flattering if you live in Berlin.

best wishes,
Thilo


Thilo Bayer   {K:50301} 11/7/2005
Hi Roberto,

the image is heavily underexposed by intention =)

I wanted to reduce the image to 2 dimensions.

Thx for the comment,
Thilo


Thilo Bayer   {K:50301} 11/7/2005
Hi Stefan,

unfortunately, I didn't realize the real potential of the scene. So yes: DOF is something to improve.

thanks for the honest feedback,
Thilo


Thilo Bayer   {K:50301} 11/7/2005
Hi Luke,

I'm not sure what you mean with TN ;-)

best wishes, Thilo


Thilo Bayer   {K:50301} 11/7/2005
Hi Todd,

thanks for the great alternative title... a bit more "peaceful" than my version =)

Thilo


Thilo Bayer   {K:50301} 11/7/2005
Hi Linda,

you managed to nail down my own impression =)

I underexposed the image to get just 2 dimensions.

Thilo


Thilo Bayer   {K:50301} 11/7/2005
Hi Baki,

there are some pictures of this place to come where humans are included =)

Thx, Thilo


Thilo Bayer   {K:50301} 11/7/2005
Hi Ameed,

thx a lot for the kind words my friend.

best wishes,
Thilo

Paul's Photos   {K:34954} 11/7/2005
like the geometric shapes, good lighting and tones.. nicely done


Patrick Jacobson   {K:29151} 11/8/2005
I like it.. might want to crop it abit earlier as there is shadows destroying the perfect pattern. Without those shadows it would be impossible to say if it was manufactured/fabricated or shoot on scene! =)

Regards,

Patrick J


CorrieLynn Jacobsen   {K:9882} 11/8/2005
I really like the heavy shadows in this, seems to suit the perpose behind the monument.
I would love to see this museum one day, i envy all your travels!


Carlheinz Bayer   {K:14220} 11/8/2005
The golden glow works great here.

Thanks for the recent comment, Thilo.

This pic is kinda representative of why I haven't been around so much: UF is a bit dead to me. I don't appreciate how the content (and money) providers are treated.

My friend Kevin Collier has been unceremoniously kicked out recently.

Back to the subject, though: this is a nice picture, making great use of the backlighting to highlight and enhance the contrast.

Nice job.
