[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Yesterday blue, today green! :-)
This picture was taken with my old camera, a very simple and also bad one. So it happened often there was something wrong with the pictures. Like this one. As you can see in the WS I uploaded as well, this picture was completely overexposed, absolutely useless, but not for TL. I’ve just played with the colours, made a negative of it, and here the result:
Copenhagen in Green.

Just tried to make something nice out of something bad. ;-)
The picture was taken from the tower of Vor Frelsers Kirke (Church of Our Saviour) in the part of Copenhagen called Christianshavn.
If you know Copenhagen: the tower on the right is Christiansborg Slot, the little tower in the middle is Rådhustårnet, the fierce yellow building in the middle is Den sorte Diamant and the tower on the right is Christianskirke.

I hope you like this little experimental shot.

Strange, unsual but so good effect in green. I like it so much. Good contrasts betweent green and black.

TL est la liberté d'expression et permet de sortir des règles classiques qui étaient d'usage en argentique bien que ... Le numérique nous donne beaucoup plus de possibilités ( pour les gens qui ne faisaient pas de la chambre noir, B&W et couleur ) de création.
Ta photo est intéressante par son jeu de lumière et le contraste.

TL is the freedom of expression and makes it possible to leave the traditional rules which were of use into silver although... The numerical one gives us much more possibilities (for people which did not make a darkroom, B&W and color) of creation. Your photograph is interesting by its play of light and contrast. JP

Basicaly its a good one on the basis from a hight Copenhagen view.
I like it for basis colors and lines. The only thoing that disturbs me (just a little is te black sky up the frame, I am quite sure it would be better whith a tight crop to the last colored elemet.
I like it

Un efecto muy curioso. Las posibilidades de la fotografía digital son enormes. Me gusta la tonalidad fría que elegiste para este experimento. Bravo

A very peculiar effect. The possibilities of the digital photography are enormous. I like the cold tonality that you chose for this experiment. Bravo

Good effect, Lars. This is the way I often saw the old city when I had had too much to drink in my youth. Impressive work on the original - and a very belated welcome to TL.

afschuwelijk mooi Lars.. weet niet anders hoe ik dit vgifgroene, maar toch overweldigende monster moet noemen
