  1. "Frankfurt - Bankfurt," nag the critics. At least Frankfurt has a considerable number of skyscrapers for Germany. A small section in cool B&W: Frankfurt skyline Commerzbank Tower Main Tower Westhafen Tower Fair Tower German Bank Best regards, Uli
  2. ... so, get off the sofa and get out! Best regards, Uli
  3. Regarding my general idea of the photo, please see my answer to Dieter Schaefer. On the two focal points. My idea was that they should stand opposite each other and thus create a connection. Obviously, I didn't succeed very well. Thanks for your comments. All the best, Uli
  4. Yes, the halos are too strong, I have to work on that. I didn't want it to be a classic image. Overall, I wanted two things: 1. In general: To create a rather graphically austere, almost hard image. 2. Specifically: Since Berlin is neither beautiful nor charming - but very interesting - , to create a contradictory, dramatic image. Best regards, Uli
  5. The River Spree with the TV Tower in Berlin (Germany) I'm just trying my hand at, well, rather experimental SW images. Best regards, Uli
  6. The wings of the Metropol Parasol swing lightly over the old market square in Seville, Spain. Since 2011, the world's largest wooden construction has been protecting people from the Andalusian sun on the Plaza de la Encarnacion. The "mushrooms of Seville", as the inhabitants also call them, are the new landmark of the capital of Andalusia. In the medieval city centre, they offer an archaeology museum, a market hall, bars and restaurants as well as a sweeping view from the skywalk at a height of 26 metres. With its extensive umbrella-like structures, the roof provides shade for the Plaza de la Encarnacion With around 3500 wooden segments, the German architectural team J. Mayer H. from Berlin has created an organic structure Architecture cannot be pigeonholed, it wants to be explored, discovered, conquered. Skywalk over the roofs of Seville The setting sun conjures up a play of light and shadow, beautiful to watch from the terrace with a drink. Best regards, Uli
  7. The baguette saleswoman All the best, Uli
  8. Butterfly More precisely, a 1955 SNR (Société Nouvelle de Radiophonie, Paris) 55 "Excelsior" also called "Papillon" (butterfly) because of its design. All the best, Uli

    MONDAY !

    MONDAY 1 All the best, Uli
  10. Oh, sorry, I have now posted part 3 and conclusion. About 30 per cent of my pictures are series. But mostly only two to four shots. The Bologna series is rather the exception. All the best, Uli
  11. Part 3 and end Culinary heaven Tortellini in all variations Chef Connoisseur Infinite gourmet spaces La Dolce Vita All the best, Uli
  12. "Seriously?" ponder... Cooking demonstration in the marketplace in Alba, Italy. All the best, Uli
  13. Yes, much clearer. The criticism helps me to see my pictures with a different view. I am usually so "deep in the picture" that I lack the idea that you could also see it differently. Best regards, Uli
  14. Re "flooded with light." Yes, you are right. I wasn't careful enough in the description. I wanted to express that the building appears filigree, hm, almost "without weight", But there is no "flooded" light This criticism helps. I have to make sure in the future that the description hits the subject more accurately. Best regards, Uli
  15. La Dolce Vita in Bologna – Part 2 The alley is the market Man is choosy overflowing The friendly one excellent fish Down to earth All the best, Uli
  16. Hello Mike, I think I misunderstood you (I translated it wrong). I thought you were missing people in relation to the station. After re-reading, I understand your criticism to mean that the shots are too conventional. Hm, yes, they are rather documentary. Whereas I was hoping to portray the lightness of the construction. You'd rather have unusual images that deviate from the standard? Best regards, Uli
  17. La Dolce Vita in Bologna. The capital of Emilia-Romagna is considered the culinary center of Italy. In Italy it is therefore also called "la Grasse, "the fat one. In the center of Bologna, magnificent buildings dominate the cityscape. Here the Palazzo del Podestà at the central Piazza Maggiore. In hot or rainy weather, the city is easy to explore thanks to Bologna’s portici. Some 40 kilometers of covered porticoes invite visitors to stroll. Red brick dominates Bologna’s historic center. The reflections bathe the alleys in saturated red light. It is therefore also called „La Rossa“, the red one. Second part follows All the Best, Uli
  18. Yes, absolutely right. The whole thing only works as an image-text combination. If you just take the picture, there's nothing in there that shows "freedom from the pandemic." I should have communicated that somehow. I'm just too close to that. I sometimes make explicit image-text combinations that, at least for me, create a third context. This newness has nothing to do with the images directly. Hm, I have a project that works exactly like this. I can post it here as a trial. But it will take a while... Really thanks for the considerations that the photo must be seen as it a picture-text-combination. I had instinctively assumed that was clear. But that was just my (inside) view. Sorry. Best regards, Uli
  19. You are right, I overlocked the corner. Yes, specially behind the group of people. I can reduce the light . It was a cold day in october in Bologna (Italy) and the light flooded unfiltered almost horizontally through the city. The center is built of red bricks and this shined deep red in the sun. Thank you for your accurate and detailed advice, it helps a lot! Ah, and it is exactly the symbolism as you understood it. All the best, Uli
  20. Towards the post-pandemic era All the best, Uli
  21. Thanks, Ah, your photo was taken during the GDR era. There it looks a little different today. All the best, Uli
  22. Hi, I am an amateur photographer from Berlin (Germany) and I am interested in travel, art and architecture. All the best, Uli
  23. Anyone arriving in Berlin by train is greeted by a glass main station. The roof and side walls of the central station are glazed, allowing daylight to flow unhindered through the building. Thanks to the light construction, the visitor has a view in all directions. They can watch the arriving trains on the ground floor from the 5th platform. Long-distance and regional trains as well as underground and suburban trains arrive at the station on several superimposed levels. The individual levels are connected by an open architecture with lots of glass, escalators and lifts. Designed by the architect Meinhard von Gerkan, the main station was completed in 2006. Today, around 300,000 travellers use it every day. Main entrance to Berlin main station Canopy at the main entrance Levels of Berlin Main Station View from the main entrance, on the left the Reichstag dome, on the right the Chancellor's Office Glass dome of Berlin Main Station Top level Middle levels of Berlin Central Station ICE train arrives Berlin main station All the best, Uli
