Hello Wolfgang,
I appreciate very much the black and white treatment here, it works extremely well for this great composition. I like the juxtaposition and balance between the three central 'characters'. An excellent range of tones and very good clarity, complete a fine image well worth seeing.

Dear Wolfgang,
well seen, I like this pieces of daily life, with a mix of different people, posters, each of them doing their own business...I wish you had redressed a bit the perspective, the inclusion of that tube makes for some graphics too, and your b/w is very nicely contrasted.

TFS
Beste Grüsse

Well done, Wolfgang.
You created a splendid and modern compostion here.
The use of black and white was a good idea.
Excellent B&W tones and perfectly captured from a very original point of view.
Regards,
Eddie

Hallo Wolfgang,
ich wäre auch gerne ab Mittwoch unschuldig, wie geht das ? ;-)
Sehr reizvolle SchwarzWeiß Darstellung, aber auch die Farbversion gefällt mir. Die gute Umsetzung passt mit den vielen Kontrasten und die voneinander "entwandten" (im Gegensatz zu zugewandt) Menschen sehr stimmig in der Wirkung.
Lieben Gruss, Ulf

Hi Wolfgang,

That is what I call street photography!
And yes, the black and white does it! I might perhaps have cut it off above the 'pro sieben' to give it a horizontal layout. The top doesn't add that much to me. But the whole compo with the three persons all in their own world surely works for me!

Have a good weekend,
Dennis

Hallo Wolfgang,
You forgot to put it in another category: "Decisive moment". I used to chase for this kind of street snapshots and I know how rare it is to get a catchy image. You have to be very observative to notice the situations, you have to be quick because just a head turn may make the image completely uninteresting, very often the surrounding elements ruin the compo. Here everything is just right. The looks of persons play an interesting game, producing a kind of tension that is enhanced by the absence of any clue to what they may be thinking of, and the image is also very interesting graphically. I like how that tube above gives depth to a mostly flat image with much compressed planes.
I guess that the colour version is also very achieved, but certainly this is the kind of image that is expected to be more effective in B&W, because it reminds some classics of the mid 20th century and the absence of colours makes the 'moody' aspects stand out, without any interference of colours that tend to put emphasis on the graphical aspects.
Regards, José.
