Partially influenced by the genius works of Piet Mondrian - even though I would, of

course, never dare to claim to get even nearly close to his artistic masterpieces...

Please let me know what you think. Thanks!

Symmetrized artwork. Your feedback is much appreciated!

Thanks for stopping by. Alex

Your C&C is much appreciated.

Thanks for stopping by, Alex

Great shapes. There are some really wonderful elements in there.

But the color palette is a little too monotonous for my taste...

Hi Su,

I'm really attracted by the shape of the tower. You found a very good angle to take the picture. However, the windows and perspective distortion distract me. Hope you don't mind I heavily cropped the original ...

Best regards, Alex

Very well seen!

Personally, I would think that this picture might work equally well in b/w. Did you give this a try?

Best regards,

Alex

I agree with Christoph: Too much of post-processing for my taste, too.

On the other hand, I really like the composition. Apart from the aforementioned paintshopping, this is a great environmental portrait!

Best regards,

Alex

Gail,

first of all: Thank you for leaving a comment. Glad to see you like it.

Algorithmic art is about creating art using formulas and computers instead of a camera or a paint-brush. Algorithmic Art - at least this one - emanates from purely computational means. It usually comes along with a lot of programming effort. ;-)

Following up the idea of more organic shapes.

C&C much appreciated!

Inspiring picture! Very well seen and executed.

If I could, I would rate it a 6. :)

This is the first output of what could one day become a little series about a more

organic approach towards algoithmic art.

I'm Curious to find out what you think about it. Looking forward to your honest critiques.

:-) Thanks for you interest! Alex

Looking forward to your C&C!

Alex

Excellent image, Rick! Very appealing pattern and color. Especially like the two "suns", they kind of add more context. 7

Best regards, Alex

Happy new year everybody!

Your C&C is very much appreciated. Thanks in advance, Alex

Hi Rick,

yet simple, this is an eye-catcher. Great play with different layers (sharp / burred / totally blurred). I am especially attracted by the composition/crop. Very good work!

Happy new year 2014!

Alex

Your C&C is much appreciated.

Just discovered this in the "More Photos by Member" section. Amazing shot! I really like the composition and the blue / metallic color cast. Just like in your recent work "Card game, Havana, Cuba", I noticed that here again you used natural architecture as framing elements.

The arriving / departing blurred train turns this really nice shot into something remarkable.

Best regards,

Alex

Michael, thanks for the explanation.

Congratulations to this great street photography.

KENT:

Thanks for your kind feedback!

RICK:

Thank you for stopping by. I'm glad you like my appoach towards algorithmic art. Now looking forward to your next upload.

Excellent! Very creative and original.

Thanks for sharing,

Alex

Definitely an eye-catcher. The image has a lot of depth, the angle you chose relative to the street is perfect. Background and foreground and connected by different tones of reds, and the arc does a great framing.

Just on question: The card players seem to appear a little too sharp. Is this a montage?

Best regards,

Alex

Hi Rick,

very nice result. At first glance, it seemed to me that this picture is symmetric (rotation by 180° around the image center). However, looking closer, this turned out not to be the case. Very subtle structure! Nice colors and great detail.

Best regards,

Alex

PS: Sorry for using this as a platform, but since we obviously share interest in this kind of art; may I kindly invite you to check some of the abstracts in my portfolio?
