Description reflecting connection

I took this photo during the ~Hessen devMeet in Frankfurt. Take a look at https://www.deviantart.com/view/16793424/ if you want to see me while taking this and some other shots
There are some other shots from this building available but I'm not sure about uploading them.
I've changed the contrast and the saturation but I still think, there is something missing on this shot...don't know what Hope you like it anyway!

Date: 2nd April 2005, afternoon
Location: Frankfurt, Trade Fair

incredible composition and use of the reflection and design of the architecture! I've really enjoyed looking through your entire gallery!

was passt dir denn nicht? ist doch ein schoenes detail. vielleicht haettest du es
noch staerker schraegstellen koennen, so dass eine kante vom uebergang parallel
zum bildrand waere. oder haette man dann die strassenbahn gesehen?

Ich glaub es hängt einfach mit dem Farbton zusammen. Das hat in meinen Augen eher was älteres und unruhiges.

Nice sharp angles.. The perspective is great. I don't know if you'd like this idea, but I was thinking it might look better if you cropped the top bit with the brown-ish part of the building off so it would look something like this instead...? I know it's an odd shape for a photo, but I kind of like how it elongates the bridge between the two buildings and focuses in on it, and the reflection, emphasizing the length and angularity. Just a thought. As it is, it's awesome anyways.

So sorry for my very late answer but thank you a lot for your detaild comment and your work about your idea
To your idea: It's cool but I ever want to show the complete pice of architecture I've captured. Just "parts" (means not the complete) kill the image I think.

Nah, s'okay! Absolutely, I understand. Like I said, it's completely up to you. *shrugs* We all have different opinions, and it's completely fine whichever way you want; I'm not one to be critical. Either way, it's great.

Silentwaters [2005-04-08 10:55:25 +0000 UTC]

wieder mal ein netter Winkel
auch die Farbenvielfalt kommt dem Bild bzw. dem Gebaeude zugute
kein eintoeniges GlasHaus sondern mal was anderes

Himmel reflektiert auch in diesem/dieser Uebergang(?)/VerbindungsBruecke

yop, huebscher Architektur-Shot


zum ActionShot :
is das eine Strassenbahn oder eine UBahn, die da neben euch steht
hier in Wien gibt es eine aehnliche Konstelation... also UBahn faehrt unter einem Haus(Staedtische Buecherei) durch...
koennte man, denke ich, auch einen recht netten Shot machen... vll. mach ich das ja mal und zeigs dir... aeh... ja...

toko In reply to Silentwaters [2005-04-09 14:02:45 +0000 UTC]

Yepl, ist eine Verbindungsbrücke oder dergleichen von einem dort hochführenden Aufzug/Rolltreppen/Treppen zu eben diesem abgebildeten Gebäude - gesehen wie gesagta auf dem Messegelände.

Zum devMeet Shot: Das ist eine S ... wie auch imemr, jedenfalls keine Straßen, aber auch keine U-Bahn - die verkehrt hier Regional in Frankfurt und Umgebung.

boulew [2005-04-07 19:57:17 +0000 UTC]

Beautiful work...images like this are often very stunning from a geometric standpoint. What's missing from the picture? The only thing I'm not too fond of is the color of the building...it seems very bland, but that's hardly something you can control. Excellent capture.

toko In reply to boulew [2005-04-08 09:05:38 +0000 UTC]

Thank you a lot Yep the colors isn't really there, but there wasn't much color in the reality too - but I wouldn't make it black and white.

Hab etwas am Kontrast gefeilscht, auch die Sättigung etwas höher gesetzt, ansonsten entspricht alles der Wirklichkeit.

whispersandmoans [2005-04-07 12:30:02 +0000 UTC]

Is that horizontal glass thing part of the left building? What is it? lol. The contrast between the two colours and the way that one building is horizontal and the other is vertical is what caught my eye ... that said, I like the angle too, and how it is not completely straight. Anyway, I like this picture a lot.

toko In reply to whispersandmoans [2005-04-07 12:37:31 +0000 UTC]

Thanks for the comment.

Okay I'll try to explain what you want to know, hope you can understand it, my English sucks a bit.
1.) I hold the camera skew
2.) The building goes vertical, left part of the photo (not the reflecting thing) is this building
3.) The reflecting part comes out in the front of the building ...
4.) ... and goes into another building behind/above me

toko In reply to lordofthedoomed [2005-04-07 03:16:55 +0000 UTC]

Yep, ist auch vorhanden. Bin noch am überlegen, was ich wie als ächstes und wann hochlade. Ich habe noch gut 15 mehr oder weniger sehenswerte Bilder zum einen von meinem Ausflug mit ~ Kazooma zum anderen eben vom devMeet (die Bilder überwiegen ), ich wills eben auch nicht übertreiben mit den Uploads sondern alles nach und nach bringen.

Hab ja gar nicht gedacht, dass speziell das jetzt auch so gut ankommt, aber es ist gut zu wissen, wie gesagt, da ist noch mehr Material vorhanden

Vielen Dank

bravo
