jennifercatron 9 Posted February 29, 2004 Im one of those people that just hates a road or a path leading straight front and center.. it gives the viewer tunnel vision and doesn't really allow them to absorb the entire piece. Link to comment
peter_apostol 0 Posted February 29, 2004 Wonderful! The light, the haze the lines, the framing. Very original. Link to comment
ken_thalheimer 3,739 Posted February 29, 2004 I have to diagree with Jennifer on this. I like this a lot and feel it works very well. The haze there or did you add it? Link to comment
cristina_fumi 0 Posted February 29, 2004 i disagree with Jennifer too: hier the center /low perspective works very well, added to the fog gives a chill down the spine because of its theatrical atmosphere. VERY GOOD! Link to comment
charodiez 0 Posted March 1, 2004 I also think that rules are made to be broken. I love the centered tunnel, in fact it´s what makes this shot so interesting (+ the foggy mood) Link to comment
bogdan_harjoc 0 Posted March 1, 2004 Losing the centered view would also lose the symmetry, which is essential here. Link to comment
jimmcnitt 0 Posted March 2, 2004 A centered composition with strong lines leading to the vanishing point can be extremely effective, especially, as is the case here, the horizon line is located on one of the thirds. The main danger of such compositions is that they feel static and too balanced -- hardly a problem in this scene with the light filtering the superstructure creating enough atmosphereic drama for three photos! --jim Link to comment
terrybutler 0 Posted June 7, 2004 Wonderful lighting, a terrific photograph, I can't find fault with this. Link to comment
Guest Guest Posted November 14, 2004 6/7 I like this vey much, but I feel it is just a bit off center as there is more space on the left side of the railroad tracks than on the right. Link to comment
janc 0 Posted August 18, 2008 nice composition and color tones, I like how fog helps depth, you have got a great steel cathedral. Cheers! Link to comment
dave_redmann 0 Posted February 25, 2010 Very nicely done. Photographing a through-truss can be tough, for lots of issues of light and geometry and placement of individual members, but I like this. The central view does not bother me at all, and in fact is better than the alternatives. You can't get too far off center because of the narrow space between the two trusses, and to me, just a little off-center is worse than straight on. I like the quality of the light--was there some fog or mist? Link to comment
