Description While I'm browsing through the images from last vacation to compile a photobook there are several shots which are not really special but I like them very much for personal reasons. Maybe you too. This is one of them.

is this possibly right across the street form a marriott? maybe infront of an indian resturant?

I have no idea, really. It's been two years ago and I'm not good in remembering street-names. Sorry.

I usually don't go for sun flares, but I think this one really works, the backlighting of the buildings and street is cool

I think this is amazing.
It's like the song.."I left my heart in san francisco" except I really did. hah. We moved from there to connecticut 5 years ago, and I'll never stop missing it.
Great job

Naja, außer vielleicht Frankfurt würde die Wahl da auch eng werden. Aber fahren wir nicht alle nach USA, um genau diese Clisches von Wolkenkratzerschluchten erfüllt zu bekommen?

Mike-a-delic In reply to sputnikpixel [2006-08-01 23:06:02 +0000 UTC]

Nö, ich will auch noch ganz viele andere Klischees erfüllt bekommen, nicht nur das mit den Wolkenkratzern
Mit FFM besteht allerdings wohl keine Verwechselungsgefahr, da 1. die Hochhäuser dort in nicht in diesem Stil und 2. nicht in der Nähe von solchen (für San Fran typischen) Hügeln gebaut sind. In FFM ist die Hochhausumgebung flach soweit ich mich erinnere.

Mike-a-delic In reply to sputnikpixel [2006-08-02 08:24:31 +0000 UTC]

LOL, wieso nicht? Neidisch dass es in Berlin kein Hochhausviertel gibt? Berlin ist auch ohne Hochhäuser schön (zumindest wenn man mal 'ne Woche da war [klingt komisch, iss aber so...war mal 4 tage in B und fand's schrecklich. Hab dann 7 wochen dort gewohnt und fand's geil]), nur Frankfurt am Main (FFM) wäre ohne seine Hochhäuser nix besonderes.

I was surprised too by the steepness in some places, stairs instead of pavements.

I like the red lights in this image and that large spark of sun.
Would be a good photojournalist piece.

Thanks. The red lights are very important in this scene in my opinion since the red's the only real strong color here and it adds some icing on the cake.

Checker2k3 [2006-01-06 20:37:43 +0000 UTC]

I like the picture, but I think the sun is a little bit too hard in this picture, so I mean it´s a bit over-radiated, but it´s okay.

sputnikpixel In reply to Checker2k3 [2006-01-08 01:13:49 +0000 UTC]

Yes you're right. The sky is overexposed but in my own opinion it's quite good this way. I like how it seems the white light breaks out and engulfs the scenery. Thanks for the critique.

thejcgerm [2006-01-06 18:55:54 +0000 UTC]

I remember someone in my photo class had a picture of that same hill (or maybe not, because those hills all look exactly the same), and darn it if what I suggested their picture look like doesn't looks exactly like your picture.
