Pinakothek der Moderne #2

I meant to include this crop. I think it's the subject.

The photo looks funny after cropping. It destroyed a perfect photo.

The purpose of the crop was to draw attention to the important part of the image. Some want to cut this part out. Please read the comments. (I like the shadows and reflections in your shot.)

10/10.....This is a fantastic image!!! But..could i seggest a litte cut..is only my personal taste!!!

I wish I could have given you a 10/10. Anyway, I love this photo. Kudos!

Fantastic! I don't think anyone could browse past this picture without taking a closer look. Very striking composition.

Great composition! Very well balanced (especially with the reflection). Great tones and simply amazing perspective.

A decisive moment in which camera and man agree resulting in a perfect timing. I don't feel there is anything staged about this image but the confidence of been able to achieve a perfect framing at the right moment.

All the elements work wonderfully well in this image as it was composed at the drawing desk.

You are a good image maker. Keep up with the good work.

Is good to have intuition, isn't it?

I am humbled whenever I see something that demands a second or third look to fully appreciate. Though I wish the two men in the picture were more dissociated from each other (perhaps absorbed in the art rather than each other's companionship), I really admire the use of reflection and light.

Excellent!

The sweep of this image is breathtaking! I don't think I've seen a more lyrical photo. A masterpiece.

One of my favorate photographs on this web site.

This is certainly one of my favorite images. Wow!

just awsome.

just awsome.

I love this. It's very appealing.

Delightful...

superb composition - although i feel you should allow an equal distance between the top and bottom of the nearest picture frame - so recrop, however, this is a minor problem. Compliments on a beautiful and excellently timed photograph.

Wish my work was this consistant !

Extraordinarily good composition: everything is just perfectly placed. This is really most impressive.

It's a picture with many intended and unintended messages and details. It has been well captured, since it is very easy that such scenes decompose once the subjects realise that they have been photographed. Lukar has been very quick. I don't think he could bring all the details under his control, he must have focused basically on the curved wall perspective, the two watchers and the reflections in the glass, which is quite complicated. Consider that the two persons behave independently and that speed is a key element.

One of my criteria is "would I expose it enlarged on a wall?" the answer in this case is absolutely: yes!
