(4 x 4) + 1 lady Photo

Photographer’s Note

Hello dears,

Today another photo from Germany and a daily life scene from Hannover. Hope you like it;)

-----------------------------------------------------

Hanover or Hannover(i), on the river Leine, is the capital of the federal state of Lower Saxony (Niedersachsen), Germany and was once by personal union the family seat of the Hanoverian Kings of Great Britain, in their dignities as the dukes of Brunswick-Lüneburg (which title was later called the Elector of Hanover at the end of the historical period known as Early Modern Europe). After the Napoleonic Wars ended, the Electorate was enlarged and made into the capital of the Kingdom of Hanover.

In addition to being the capital of Lower Saxony, Hanover was the capital of the administrative area Regierungsbezirk Hannover (Hanover region) until Lower Saxony's administrative regions were disbanded at the beginning of 2005. It is, however, still part of the Hanover district (Region Hannover), which is a municipal body made up from the former district and city of Hanover.

With a population of 522,944 the city is a major center of northern Germany, known for hosting annual commercial expositions such as the Hanover Fair and the CeBIT. Every year Hanover hosts the Schützenfest Hannover, the world's largest Marksmen's Fun Fair, and the Oktoberfest Hannover, which is the second largest Oktoberfest in the world. In 2000, Hanover hosted the world fair Expo 2000. The Hanover fairground, due to numerous extensions especially for the Expo 2000, is the largest in the world. Hanover also has regional importance because of its universities and medical school, its international airport, and its large zoo. The city is also a major crossing point of railway lines and highways (Autobahnen), connecting European main lines in east-west-direction (Berlin - Ruhr area) and north-south-direction (Hamburg - Munich et al.).

Hi Mik,
Very good capture; a daily life scene, where many hundreds of people pass every day, but only a "good photographers eye" has noticed it !
Great compo with perfect and nice graphism. Nice notes as well.
TFS and best regards

Witka!
Fajny kwadratowy kadr a w nim kwadraty i nie tylko.
Rewelka odbicie w szybach a szczegolnie ptaki.
Element na pierwszym planie moze byc ...
Pozdrawiam
Krzysztof

Hej mik, Fajny geometryczny kadr. Podobaja mi sie fruwające ptaszki, to chyba odbicia. Konbitka w tym kolorowym płaszczu dobrze sie wpasowała. ale chodnik to taki jak u nas dawniej były i tez w nienajlepszym stanie.
pozdrawiam

Witam ,
fajnie fajnie, kwadratowo, prosto, symetrycznie, przydalaby sie jeszcze druga identyczna Pani idaca w przeciwna strone :)
Ptaki rzeczywiscie "daja kopa",
a co do chodniczka - to ja lubie te stare rowniez kwadratowe plyty, przypomniaja mi stary chodnik przed moim domem a co za tym idzie i dziecinstwo i resoraki ktore posuwaly po tym chodniku...
POZDRAWIAM

Elegancja Francja ;))
Znakomicie wypatrzone 4x4, ptaki i lady też.
Inspiruje. Mnie zainspirowało ku klasycznej biało-czarnej wersji, którą pozwalam sobie pokazać w w-sie.
Pozdrawiam T.

Dobry strzal, jest czlowieczek w damskim wydaniu na tle tej kwadratowej witryny. Jest na co popatrzec w odbiciach i wewnatrz budynku.Dobre informacje i dokument z Hanoweru.

Ciao Mikeo, beutiful urban view with fantastic reflections of flying birds, very well done, ciao Silvio

judesta (992) 2009-03-20 15:37

Hi Mik
My particular attention was drawn to the reflection of the birds in the windows of the building you have so brilliantly captured. Great composition.
Cheers
Jude

Hello Mik,

One photograph, three different point view, this is very nice.
Great reflections, also the stair gives a very nice composition.
The lady is the real eye catcher .
Very well composed, lovely captured, also excellent prensentation. TFS.

Have a nice weekend,
John

Witaj Mik,
Interesting capture, that denotes a great sense of observation and opportunity. It's a fine mix of graphics and "daily life", with the flying birds adding life and motion.
Regards, José.

Hi friends,
good title in reference to the large windows and its good geometry, with the presence of the lady in foreground and a good game of reflections and transparences in the windows.
I wonder if the birds that are seen in the windows and that look like a reflection, they are a few decorative elements inside the building.
Well seen, and well done.
Best regards,
Josep

Geometria i ¶wiat³o. Jak siê okazuje, kwadrat wystêpuje w tym kadrze wielokrotnie. Przeszklony ci±g komunikacyjny ¶wietnie ³apie ¶wiat³a i o¿ywia ca³o¶æ. £adnie umieszczona w kadrze szklana ¶ciana. Postaæ przechodnia dynamizuje kadr.
Pozdrawiam,
Jurek

Jak siê fotka wczytuje (na s³abszym sprzêcie) :)
To wygl±da jak obraz z "Ptaków" Hitchcock'a :D
Mo¿na by powiedzieæ 3 in 1 :)
A chodnik wygl±da jakby falowa³ :)
