"Seven" a shopping gallery on Duesseldorf's famous Koenigsallee (KOE). Prices are high on the Koe ... but it's one of the better places in our area.

Quite good perspective, and being a shopping centre, very well shown, the lights, the floors, the different architecture, the shops, the signs, the people....uf! All what makes a shopping gallery. Maybe just the colours are a bit too saturated

Wonderful colors and angles and Great POv, I like it

A splash of colors and light. I would crop it on top, just below the "seven". Thus, it will even be stronger abstractly. JMHO.

Great shot, very special effect, lights design and colors. AAA+++

Hi Nino
nice and futuristic picture. Well here you can really buy everything I think. Here you can buy things from all over the world without going anywhere... and this scares me a lot.

Amused picture. Intense and varied colors, although I believe that the vertical is a little twisted. Good job.

It looks like straship ! I didn't know UFO's lands in Germany.
A good dof and a great composition.

nice idea all those neons light are interesting but I think it would have been better if we could have seen the floor or even better if you had taken the picture from the next floor.

Hi Nino,
Wow! What an architectural delight! Your POV moreover really captures all the dynamic action of these twisting shapes and interesting curves. This could be on a movie set as one moves steadily into the blue vortex in mid-frame. A rather captivating shot. Very skilfully rendered and a fine eye to envisage the POV. This is great work.

Beautiful lights and shapes! This is great photography, when you can take an ordinary scene and create something beautiful from it. Bravo!

Hi Nino - interesting and futuristic, a wonderful busy composition, I like the lights and colours, it looks like a nice place to waste money on overpriced products.

Hello Nino
very futuristic looking shopping complex ... I like these kind of european architecture ... whereas in North america the emphasis is mostly in making it big, in europe the emphasis is on making it compact I think ... tfs .. sarju

I must believe this is a very photogenetic place, like John you captured almost the same view but here more contrasted and saturated enforcing all these curves and round forms, nicely done.

This is a cool looking Mall.I love the interior design and awesome colors.Blue neon lights looks nice.Nice pov,sharpness,focus and colors.TFS

Wow Nino, this is great. I like it so much!
Everything is perfect here.
Such a living in the starship.
Cheers!

Good capture of this futuristic-looking architecture, Nino, reminiscent of a spaceship in a way. The converging v-shapes offer a good perspective effect, and you managed a well-balanced exposure to render the colors and artificial lights. Nice shot.

Hi Nino,
Great composition, like a futuristic vision. Wonderful colours. Good DOF.
Greetings,
Leonor

Simply lovely a great perspective!! well done bala

very nice shot here, it looks futuristic from the thumbnail, very good details and nice lighting, well done

Very fine angle you found for this motif - The blue light gives a lovely effect which adds extra to the image - Thanks for a fine job.

A great architectural shot fom a good POV, Nino, but would be better rotated slightly CCW. Good exposure. The blue fluoro lightrs make this very interesting. Cheers . . . David

Hi Nino;

Great shot! I really like the variety of shadows/ highlights you have here. Accented by the neon lights with the sharp lines makes for a great shot!

Cheers!

What a big shopping mall...I never liked these places, but this photo obliges me to think again. The lights are very well captured. Great idea to shoot this, as the architecture is quite different from what most people are used to seeing.
Cheers
Louis

Hi Nino, this is a very futuristing design, it looks like something from science fiction. I like the colours. lights and angular curves.

Hello Nino,
What a very good choice of POV, and the light is perfect, did u use a tripod?
Very impressive shot,
Regards,
Luciana

GREAT COMPOSITION IT LOOKS LIKE A SOME MORDEN ART THANKS FOR SHARING

Ciao Nino,

I am slso very fond of this kind of pictures, shopping malls , nice shapes and challenging lights. You managed perfectly here,
Many thanks - Izzet

Nino, Great neon-gothic cathedral. Vulgar and beautiful all at the same time. Busy compo - but it works and the people give it some scale. Very 'Blade Runner"! Well done. Auf Wiedersehen, Paul.

Nino,
Nice shoot.

But my frank opinion..
It gives little impression of PP..Please comment..
Any way, Wonderful post ..Thanks for sharing..

I like the way the neon light "pops". just the feeling that it's just a little bit wider would have been better. Hmm...wonder how the original looks like? :)

a good achitecture here, a bit dizzy to see those, like a labyrinth :-)

good catch anyway
TFS.

like a scene from back to the future...excellent!

Impressive indeed, thanks for sharing

Regards,

Hizbul

Hi Nino,
WOW!!! nice compo here! you hv captured the angled structure of this shopping gallery v.well! I like the " sevens" in the corner~ very interesting!

You have so many beautiful photos. Very interesting architecture. The sharpness is amazing. The exposure and composition is stunning. TFS.

Amazing! Very good Photo! congratulationes! Lili

Ciao Nino.,

Hi Nino,
just love this. Can't fault it. It's like the inside of an Alien spaceship, not that I have ever been in one, you know what I mean, like from a film. The blue lines work really well here. Fantastic.
Will be back.
Regards,
Mark

Hi Nino, i have just discovered that i haven't comment this one!!!

A LIKE A GOOD GERMAN ARCHITECTURE. EVERYTHING IS NECESSARY AND IN GOOD EDOITION. NICE SHOT.

i ve discovered your gallery too late i think... i am amazed with most of what i ve seen in there, congrats nino... this is one of the most striking ones i think... the architect must have been a very talented one too but the way you show the place from the striking point of view with a very good light control makes me take my hat off for you...

all the best

Hi Nino,

few days ago I was walking on Koenigsallee - great place! But I was there only about half of hour, so wasn't inside any of shopping centres:( That way I like your shot so much! Great composition, wonderful colours and great sharpness,

greetings,

mikeo
