Witaj Małgorzato,
znakomicie uchwyciłaś zarówno ogrom,jak i piękno architektury tego dworca.Bardzo ładna kolorystyka stawiająca na silny kontrast pomiędzy różnymi częściami dworca.Widziałem tez zdjęcia hali głownej tego dworca zamieszczane tutaj przez Johna(Jhm) rozniące sie zupełnie architekturą.To musi byc ciekawe połączenie.Wedlug Newsweek´a to jest podobno czwarty na liście najpiękniejszych dworców kolejowych świata.Ciekawe,które dworce zajmują pierwsze trzy miejsca?I czy na liscie znalazł się rowniez nasz Dworzec Centralny?:)
Pozdrawiam serdecznie
Krzysiek

Hi Malgorzata,
davvero particolare questa foto con POV dall'alto.
Il ponte rosso dà una notevole profondità e contrasta bene cromaticamente, con gli altri elementi compositivi.
Ottimo l'inserimento umano che dà vita alla scena e anche una maggiore idea di scala delle dimensioni globali del luogo.

TFS!
Francesco

Hello Malgorzata,
The composition is creative, with a perspective and a framing particularly well chosen. Perspective and the colors are spectacular. Excellent quality. Bravo.
Have a nice day

Hi Malgo,
Well seen and taken, good depth result, interesting with this red color and this person, well done.

Hi dear Malgorzata

Another great shot. Shocking light red is very vivid and impresive. Widefocus distortion adds the positive impact. Bravo! Thanks for your sharing with nice shot and have a good day!
Best regards,

Bonjour Malgorzata,

Un titre on ne peut plus approprié.Le trottoir rouge forme une diagonale parfaite dans l'image lui donnent une direction et de la profondeur.

Amicalement

Hi Malgorzata,

I do agree with you about the different ambiance of the railway station.. Especially the red path is so photogenic, very well seen and composed, thanks for sharing..

Regards

Selnur

sacimar (25957) 2012-06-21 8:25

Hello Malgorzata,

good image! I like the point of view you chose to create this composition, the red path and the person catch my attention, maybe I would crop the top area to focus on them...

Best regards,

Sergio

saxo042 (31790) 2012-06-21 8:48

Hi Malgorzata,
All these architectural items form together a real non-figurative work of art if you just look at the elements as such. The red bridge is perfectly placed in this artistic composition.
Kind regards
Gunnar

Nie bylem w Antwerpii, ale mam wrazenie, ze mozna tu sie zgubic w plataninie poziomow, chodnikow i przejsc, ale efekt graficzny tego chodnika jest doskonaly

Hello Malgorzata,
Very nice capture of this modern architecture with perfect pov and perfect pictorial geometry.
The red platform divides the scenery in two and creates a perfect graphism.
TFS and best regards

Hello Malgorzata, ,the red path on its own is most photogenic and by placing the figure on it it has added not only human interest but also a nice sense of scale.
Really well composed with lots of impact and of course sharp and clear.Nice photography.
Kind regards Les.

Ciao Malgo
sempre alla ricerca di cose particolari e piacevoli.
Immagine molto bella, il POV è molto indovinato e l'uomo rende il posto più "umano".
Mi sarebbe piaciuto anche un taglio più stretto, solo il ponte rosso in diagonale.
Saluti
Carlo

Hello Malgorzata,

Thnakh you for the visit on my photo of this morning.
Here,this is good presentation of modern architecture with an interesting POV. I like the lone person on the red path giving a special mood to the composition. Eye catching and well done.

Best regards

Jacques

baddori (18984) 2012-06-21 22:28

Malgo
Sicuramente la più singolare e proporzionalmente la più grande .
Molti piani ed il camminamento rosso che da prospettiva e profondità.
L'altezza le scale mobili ed l'ascensore....
Interessante luogo da visitare

Hello Malgo,

I am begining to enjoy more and more shots which use buildings and structures to create a a pleasing visual pattern. This is beautifully composed and the inclusion of the figure has really helped me to understand the scale, which is enormous!

Have a lovely w/e,
Bev :-)

eldancer1 (16938) 2012-06-23 7:41

I agree with you, I've seen several train stations including the Grand Central Station in New York and this is truly different. Only one person? Nicely captured with good lighting. Good pov and dof with nice details. Very well done, tfs.

abmdsudi (26199) 2012-06-23 22:40

Hi Malgorzata
At glance this looks like toyland to me if not because of human presence that makes lot of diff to emphisize the strength of the composition. An eye catching view indeed coupled by high contrasty colors make the shot. Many attractive elements bundled together with so much to see in excellent clarity and immense depth. Excellent shot, Congrats, TFS
Kind regards

ikeharel (37190) 2012-06-24 1:30

Not an easy task to take such a whole and inclusive pic. indoor's, in a vast modern edifice like this.
Managed well with light and the red-path in subject is amazing, Malgorzata.
Enjoy your sunday,
Ike

Ciao Malgorzata, great view of interesting station, beautiful composition with lonely man, excellent perspective, splendid light and wonderful colors, very well done, my friend, have a good Sunday, ciao Silvio

Witaj Gosiu!
Ciekawie to skomponowalas.
Ten czerwony "chodnik" robi wrazenie.
Milego popoludnia

ChrisJ (86766) 2012-06-25 9:53

Hi Malgo

A superb downward pov overlooking the red catwalk & good to include a person for scale. The red also contrasts nicely against the vertical cyan elevator in the bg. Good sharpness & excellent density & framing. The escalator top left adds a kind of symmetry. Tfs!

Cricri (86295) 2012-06-25 10:20

Hi Malgorzata
Intéressante vue de l'intérieur de la gare, surtout avec le chemin rouge belle prise avec la personne, le POV plongeant, intéressante image
Belle soirée

Hi Malgorzata,

nice capture of this railway station. Badly in Brazil we don't have pretty places like that for trains, in fact ours are very ugly! :)
But this one is wonderful. Great lines and the contrast between greed and gray.
Regards
Andre

macjake (39207) 2012-06-27 15:57

Hi Malgorzata
wow, a great photo here!
love how the red just seems to overtake the entire scene.
So smart of you to include the stand in the very bottom and having the person too.
beautiful lines!
cheers
craig

lpi (4424) 2012-07-05 5:22

Salut Malgorzata,
Ton point de vue sur cette très belle architecture est superbe.
Une composition très attractive!
Bravo!

LPi

npecanhuk (53829) 2012-07-05 16:58

Hello Malgorzata!
Very interesting, eye-catching and beautiful picture of modern interior details!
Highlights here are the chosen pov, vertical format, (superb) composition, colors and exposure!
TFS - congrats,
Cheers,
Neyvan

i9l2y1m8a8t3 (4435) 2012-07-12 7:28

Gosia, this is one stunning image. The POV, compo and the lines creates one remarkable effect as if the scene was a diorama. I love the desserted effect of this place and that single man is a very nice inclusion! Seems that this was taken from a 10-20mm lens, I think I should've bought a 17-50 instead. Anyway, thanks for sharing this one! Beautiful and impressive as always!

Take care,
matt

annjackman (13171) 2012-07-16 1:03

Hello Malgorzata,
I have just found this super image that you posted a few weeks ago. The various graphic shapes of this modern station make a striking composition. How clever you were to wait for a single person to cross the red path. The red framed sign adds balance.
Excellent capture.
Best wishes, Ann

Hanssie (9921) 2012-07-22 1:36

I was there some 10 years ago and also last year.
The Antwerp-station has been rebuilt and that's indeed, so very nice done, a wonderful station, here a modern part which is well photographed. I also like how you added the sign in the corner down there.......
