Hi Ray,
you're way too nice to me. =) Thanks for your thoughtful reply. In fact, a lot of people here move around, some of them are at Facebook now which is nice because I find a lot of old friends there.
Usefilm hasn't changed since I stopped my regular postings. The site is slow, and the problems stay the same. I will check some of your pictures, rest assured.
Take care, Thilo

wow!!!! you're an excellent photographer....i read your thoughts on another one of your portraits (the flat iron building) i dont have 1/8 of your talent, although i also felt that the greatest thing about this site is that; strangers, an friends, view an take the time to give constructive criticism an praise. my talents don't allow me much in the way of criticism to other artist as yet, because i'm still trying to learn my passion, but i praise the portraits i like.......BUT my problem is from the other artist talented as yourself (in my position have an obligation to criticise an praise the hopeful an eager, aspiring future of the art form.) there are alot of people who are self taught (my self included) who use this site to help hone their skills by great artist like you an others. i've posted pictures an very little attention in regards to criticism...so i became a donor an just about the same reaction so i'm no longer a donor(falling out of love so to speak) but i still post from time to time hoping that participation would change it hasn't so i might just move on as well.....although i'm certain i wouldnt be missed like some one with your talent. (this is not me fishing for undue attention but on the other hand is it not what this site was fore in the first place!) my regards to you, as i've already said, great work in whatever you decide i hope our paths will cross again one day.....best wishes ray t. riley.

I like it as it is Thilo, Not sure if rule of third or any other rule is static, this is photography which the rule is .. there is no rules :0) I like the wide angle effect in here, Can't be any better IMHO, Very well done, Regards,

WOW, Thilo! That is absolutely amazing! I do love the vertical orientation of that one. Plus the RoT is perfect! Wow, what a fantastic shot. Great B&W conversion too. It achieves what I imagined about this shot. It's a favorite for sure. Thanks for sharing. ~ Warmest regards, Rocky

Hi Rocky,
thanks for the even more in-depth thoughts - really appreciate that.
http://www.usefilm.com/Image.asp?ID=1036326
here is another version of this image, this time low angle, vertical. You will find the rules of 3rd. I thought it would be a good idea to do a color version as well after publishing this one.
Thanks for your comments on my portfolio. Will check yours soon.
Thilo

Hi Thilo, I can totally relate to this. Yes, it is always a dilemma deciding how to crop when so many elements in an image are working so well. The sky, the road, the shadows are all fantastic. Trying to improve the composition after-the-fact can sometimes be very challenging (if not impossible). The time to do it, of course, is at the time of capture. Even then, it may not have been possible to keep all the elements in the shot. Did you shoot several shots of this? Maybe some from different angles? I wonder how a lower angle would have looked. If it were my shot, I would have probably left this one alone as well. The horizon is above center which is just enough away from "dead" center to keep it "alive." Plus there is great movement in the subjects and the converging lines. The more I look at this image the more I love it. It was just tugging at me to mention how the "crash-point" is nearly dead center. However, I love it when a shot is brilliant in spite of the rules. This one is. Your portfolio is excellent and this shot adds to it very well. ~ Warmest regards, Rocky

Hi Rocky,
thanks for the feedback! I know that this image doesn't follow any traditional rules, but I don't want to lose shadow parts or sky here. =)

Terrific shot. About the only thing I would pick is that I'd like the rightmost figure to be separated from the trees.

Great shot, Thilo. Love the perspective and silhouetting of the people. It works that the focus is nearly dead center but I think I might have cropped it to move the subjects a little higher in the shot (rule of 3rds). Very dramamtic sky which adds to the beauty of this shot too. Really excellent work. ~ Warmest regards, Rocky

One of your very best, Thilo ... hope this doesn´t symbolize that you´re leaving for good. Anyway, the future looks bright ;-) Impressive work!

they have turned their back on their goal, mission accomplished perhaps. Lavish colour!
