study in valencia, vol.1 The Cone

Thank you for your comments and critiques!

A clean and clever composition, well seen. Often I miss a thing that conveys a sense of scale, but here this lacking is kind of nice extra, IMO. Adds interest.

Well seen, excellent shot. Congrats.

Wonderful structure and light. BR Joerg

Agree to Carsten. This is abstract enough to work better without any "scale". Tonal values of the cone are just perfect - a great contrast to dark sky. I also like the perspective and how stairs very slightly "fan" out. This can be disturbing, but again it works very well here (I guess due to long enough focal length, compressing distances between stairs).

Great photo.

Excellent!

 Beautiful work!  Compliments! ~~~~~L

 

Carsten, MY, Fernando, Jörg, Wolfgang, Linda, thank you for your comments! It was a fun and interesting study on how to take and present the cone. I spent quite a long time around the object.

Immaculate final result. Nice tones and clever presentation of the geometry. Chapeau Gunnar!

Absolutely Beautiful!

Absolutely fantastic!

Strong one

Wow... Beautiful... I think you made excellent use of the light here.. Very Nice...!!!

fabulous abstract, beautifully rendered.

Dear El, Bob K., Tatjana, Jef, Sreehari, Bob K., thank you very much for your comments. The light condition was very good for this subject - day light, very sunny, no clouds, the conditions that are usually very bad for photography:).

An interesting and very appealing shot. The b/w tones are most excellently displayed....Regards

Amazing shoot, from every point of view perfect proportion, balance.. framing, perspective of steps, tones..dark and light..location of cone.. etc..I hope other friends whom are rated this photo will permit me to add some more from architectural  point of view 7/7.. hope to see similar future works.. ragards..

Fascinating image, Gunnar. I like the contrasts, and the rich BW tones. It's fun not to know exactly what I'm looking at!

i guess i have not visited your work lately at my own peril. what a great architectural image, and as a black and white, it occupied a special place in my book. very well done.

nice simple composition, b/w works well

I had to scroll down to be sure I had not previously commented on this.  I have admired it before.  I like the spareness, the geometric designs, large and small, both complementing and contrasting each other. 

Well composed, interesting geometry.
