About Subject background: MOMA, a stairway down, and a man studying the paintings... and me, shooting the moment. =)

The distance to the scene and the thin format makes this image look like a dollhouse for me. And hey: We all live in a dollhouse, being watched the whole day from bosses, colleagues, friends and partners... =)

PS concept: worked on the reflections, strong cropping to create a special look (that fits well to the stairs). typical adjustment layers.

As always: honest feedback highly appreciated

Hi Neil,

thanks a lot for the comment critics. the idea to crop at the yellow part is probably the best idea to overcome the differences in framing. will keep that idea in mind.

Hi STefan,

I would love to have more symmetry in the framing, too. unfortunately, the architects decided to make weird things in the upper area (which I had to cut off).

thanks for the honest feedback.

Hi Thilo, i like this one of yours, in fact i think this is one of your best :) The cropping works really well and the lighting is great. The small differences betwenn the stairs - perfect. I might have tried to crop a little of the top, so it starts where the yellow banding is, but thats just my opinion. Thanks for your comment and best wishes also for 2005
Neil

Nice one Thilo!
The extreme crop really works for this one. The energy is interesting with the human subject placed in the upper third of the frame, gazing up and to the left. The cool part is that there is so much "empty space" underneath him. Herein lies the tension. NICE!!

Magnificent natural framing and a superb capture Thilo - the perspective is very good.

Very well seen and also a good decisive moment :-)

Best wishes,

Great shot Thilo... Love the cropping... I think you created here a very geometric composition... and very appealing to the eyes... D

Definetely museums are in most cases a piece of art in themselves... and yes, I agree with you since we live in a dollhouse...

Cheers,

MaLuisa

I love how modern art museums are themselves works of art - very fertile photo grounds with great potential. You realized it very well here. Only nit would be a more complete framing (on top). The warm light is very inviting and it offsets the otherwise slightly clinical sense of that austere staircase.

I like it. It doesn't appear at first glance that the stairs do not match up. Interesting how you found art in someone looking at art. =)

Hi Hugo,

thanks a lot for the inspiring and encouraging feedback. In fact, I love to shoot in museums. maybe it's the atmosphere, maybe the art environment that makes one "arty" =)

take care,
thilo

Hi Thilo, Very creative shot, and very ingenious. I completely agree. Big brother is watching. While I type this, someone might even be watching over my sholder without me noticing it....;)

Very clean shot, and a perfect presentation. The centered, static layout of the composition is IMO the only possible solution, and it works perfect in creating the mondernist approach to shape and form. I can see how it appeals to you; as it's minimalistic, following the design philosophy of the Ulm Hochschule für Gestaltung and the influence Diter Rams had on Braun design for exactly half a century.

Absolutely a great shot. Clean, simple and effective.

Cheers,

Hugo
