Het is een ruizige foto, en dat is zonde. Om heel eerlijk te zijn ben ik ook niet echt weg van de compositie. Een gebouw als deze biedt wel veel mogelijkheden, blijf hiermee experimenteren.

Dank je voor het commentaar, Tamara. Het gruizige zie ik niet zo, misschien is mijn monitor vergevingsgezinder? De compositie is een kwestie van smaak denk ik. Ik vond de bolling van het gebouw en het schip wel mooi bij elkaar passen. Misschien moet ik links er nog een stukje afsnijden, tot aan de rand van het gebouw.

Hoi Jan Willem,
Ik heb een gloednieuwe mooie monitor, dus de ruis is wel degelijk aanwezig. :)
Als ik ook naar je andere werk kijk, zou ik je in het algemeen als tip willen geven wat minder je foto's te bewerken. Zoek eerder naar goede belichting, mooie composities en naar wat jij en je camera kunnen.
Groetjes!
Tamara

j'aime bien le rendue, c'est très chouette.

Haha, I have to admit that I don't really speak French, so I had to use a web translation service to understand that. :) Merci beaucoup, meditant! :)

sehr sehr geil! großartig...

Amazing picture... for me looks like picture from movie Good Bye, Lenin!

Danke euch! Thank you!

Thanks Scott. I use Photomatix Pro 3.0, three photos (-1, 0, +1).

By the way:
Camera: Canon PowerShot G7
Shutter Speed: 1/250 second
F Number: F/4.0
Focal Length: 7 mm

Great HDR, just the right amount without going over the top!

superbe, et j'aime l'homme tout en bas au centre de ta photo, cela donne une grande dimension a ta photo.

Beautiful city scape. Another example that dark skies make much more interesting pictures that stark blue spotless skies. I like the extra light on the center of the square.

Wow! Stunning! Looks like a meteorite entering the eart. Wich city is this? Is is taken in the early moring or in the evening?

I agree with Jon, love how nature leads into the city, looks like a very interesting city! good job!

Very nice landscape/cityscape!! I agree that the Topic placement seems odd, but lovely image anyway. You might consider place this in Skyscapes too.

good shot, nice color and light and interesting contrast between the new and old part of the town

Very nice. Like the way you use the trees as foreground and then lead us into the city. Great sky.

Si es mi comentario el que no entiende trataré de explicarme:
¿podía haber quitado los taburetes antes de hacer la fotografia? ¿Porqué no lo hizo? Creo que no fué casualidad. A eso me refiero. Pensó que con ellos la fotografía ganaría, como así es. Saludos de nuevo.

ups. Juanantonio, I'm affraid that i dont understand a word from this now... (English or German would be better)

Well, Dénes, I think I can understand what juanantonio tells you : you cleverly made this shot. As a matter of fact, he says that others could have taken off the seats in order to shoot only the view on the city, but you did not, and finally this is why your pic is interesting. :)

ahh... it's clear now.
thanx for the translation Martine.

Wonderfully original!
Love this!

@ Sonoma and turkana: thanks for the comments. We had a storm moving out at the end of the day and the sun broke through just enough to give this light.

This is a beautiful photo. Everything about it is just beautiful.

what city it's about? I think you'd used too higher iso value. You have no picture idea, no objective, I don't know for what to look. thanks. vic

This shot has an engaging composition with the top cut off building to the right and the bottom cut off the building to the left. Exposure here seems to work well capturing good detail in the cloud and not blowing the reflections.

Jeff,

This is a very interesting composition! Love the light and subject matter as well. You have a winner with this one.

Best,
Jon

Excellent contrast of colours, just a terrific shot!! Keep the shutter clicken :)

Andy

no puedo por menos de sonreir cuando he visto el topic en el que has puesto esta foto :)

I love the colors, especially the blues.

Beautiful.. The clarity and the colors are gorgeous. Very nice job!!

very nicely controlled exposure. it looks like you really waited for the right time to take this.

This is gorgeous. Nice job with the colors and composition. Very pleasing to the eye!

Awesome, night shot!
