Sunset

Clean, almost surgical work, Franz, with just the few branches at the bottom as interested spectators. Really like that gradations of light in the window.

Jack, thank you for your kind comment. BR, Franz

Hi Franz,

 

minimalist, but very effective. This is the least conspicuous sunset photo I have seen ever, I like the understatement. Very well done Franz! Kind regards, Vincent

Vincent, I'm glad that you like it. Best regards, Franz

Fully agree to 'almost surgical work' - I have a predilection for strict geometries and reflections (or other means of showing things indirectly). The 1/4-closed shades are the key element here: they are the "almost" that adds just the right amount of 'dust' to the surgical cleanliness that makes this an interesting composition - and that metaphorically echoes the setting sun.

Jetzt hab' ich aber vor Verlegenheit einen roten Kopf bekommen ;o). Bei dem Bild mit dem Radfahrer habe ich einen Link bei beigefügt, in dem man Gursky's Änderungen bei Rhein II sehen kann.

Wollfgang, thank you for your kind comment. Best regards, Franz

I admire the simplicity, through which you accomplished complexity and a powerful image. This is, IMHO and over half a century of Photography being my passion, what I would call "classic", in the sense that it is along the trends of the 60s and 70s. It stopped me in my tracks to actually "see" it for a long while. Congratulations. DG

Daniel, thank you for your wonderful comment. Best regards, Franz
