Lines Squares & Rectangles in Toulouse

Another artistic impression of the conevntio centre n Toulouse (France). The strong squares and rectangles in this view inviting me to take some shots. Hope you like it.

PP work:
Adjusted brightness and contrast, some minor increasement of saturation, perspective crop to straighten the vertical lines. Cropped sharpened, add frame and text.

Hi Hans,

Interesting capture and great reflections! Nice overall composition and I like this small person as a scale between buildings and humans... :] Well done & TFS :]

Greetings from Poland,

Hiya Hansie

A superb capture here, good sharpness and detail with excellent lines and shapes. I notice you took great care to get the image exactly straight too which is essential in this style of shot.

TFS kind regards Smurfie

Hi Hans,
Nice composition and perpective with great reflections on the building, Nice idea and details ,
Excellent POV and frame..very well done.
Michel

Hi Hans,

It's a symbol of modern city, by having more glasses and metal on their building . . more straight than curve or round . .
You show us different perspective of seeing thing . . through the reflection . .
I like the angle you capture it . .

Tfs,
Tjutjut

:-)) will be back this afternoon

hi Hans

From your posts, you have a good observation of urban subjects as well as landscapes. This urban pattern and graphism creates a nice photo for looking at the architecture in terms of lines, squares, rectangles in 2-D but giving a 3-D effect.

Nice work.

TFS, bill

Hello Hans,

Excellent reflection, look like mirror! :D now you make me have the urge to go downtown and find some building with glass windows like this to take photos...:P Excellent composition and pov, look like modern art! :D


Cheers,
Sweety

Excellent composition! Greatly seen reflections! Please excuse me for daring...it seems to me that the image needs a bit more contrast, as now it is too bright in comparison to the frame. It's just my humble opinion, other than that it's absolutely perfect!

p.s. posted a ws. hope you won't feel offended. it would've been the least of my intentions to offend you.

Best regards,
Diana

Hallo Hans,
Met mijn laatste "post" (snow on wood) heb ik mij zitten afvragen of mijn zwarte frame niet wat overdreven was en de aandacht van de foto wegtrok. Bij deze foto hier vind ik dat eerlijk gezegd wel het geval. Deze "lines, squares and rectangles" hebben IMO meer (adem)ruimte nodig om ten volle tot hun recht te komen. Of hoe de wisselwerking beeld/frame van invloed kan zijn op de indruk die een foto nalaat.
Uiteraard mijn hoogstpersoonlijke mening, die je niet hoeft te delen ;o).
TFS & groeten,
Erik

Héél goed gezien Hans !
Doet me ook wat denken aan een spiegelpaleis :-)

De kleuren hadden voor mij nog iets intenser gemogen.

Hi Hansie :)

The eye of the master :o) Very well seen, nice reflections and very artistic and graphic picture ! Originality and excellent frame, congrats my dear :)

Goed gezien, het is een mooie compositie geworden. Het kan iets meer contrast gebruiken, in de WS heb ik er een poging toe gewaagd.

Groet,
Pedro
