Photographer’s Note

Spiral stairs of a firestaition tower.
Actually there were 8 spirals but I cropped the two at the bottom due to a fireengine which was parking there.

Lovely idea Yitzhak, I only wish you got it sharper, and maybe a little out of the center.
Because it reminded me of a WS I did on Olli's stairs, I tryed the same WS, just for fun... ;o)

Nice photot and like Porteplumesaid, too basd it's not sharper.. But I like it in the center of the frame. Don't move it.

Great architecture shot again. You really have beautiful and very interesting architecture in Israel – even in firestation towers...
Very well seen – and done. Well, I would crop out the half of the sky from the left.

Very good architecture shot again - I like the pattern. For me the composition works really well with the white structure in the center as it is now. Well seen and well done, Yitzhak!

I really like the crop. By cutting away that point of reference your shot turns into an interesting abstact. It would be interesting to play a mindtrick by not telling that you captured a stair and see what people come up with :-)
Good work! I do agree with Viviane and Olli about a more off-central composition...

This is very interesting. Well seen and captured. I agree that a crop opn the left might improve the shot slightly, but it is still great and I like it!

Creative, well seen and framed. Good job!And "just" a detail from a fire station!

Very nice composition of vertical and curve lines. Also the contrast between blus sky and white tower works very well.

Interesting photo Yitzhak. Nice contrast between the blue sky and the white of the structure.

The architecture in your contry is very different then here in Canada. Thanks for making us discover it.

Great picture. It's reminding me of the tower of the Olympic Stadium in Helsinki (I'm surprised Olli didn't mention it). Check some pictures here, here and here.

Like the other, I wish your picture was sharper.
Great job anyway.

This is such a simple and elegant composition. I love the clean lines. The frame is also very appropriate. Well done!

Graphic spiral cork screw, lovely blue/ white contrast and great architecture!

joseelias (367) 2003-11-17 17:45

Very interesting architecture photo! I like the contrasting colors and the complexity of the building against the plane sky. That really works!

You've also caught the sun really well because the shadows really enhance the shapes.

Lovely architecture and modern art in the same shot. Beautiful colours. Nicely framed. Well done.

femkevdh (2633) 2003-11-18 16:47

Love it! Fantastic choise of framing. The blue&white contrast works well. Indeed, interesting architecture around!

scalerman (25787) 2003-11-29 20:57

i was looking at more of your photos. you really have an eye for the geometric in life. when i become better than you at photography perhaps i can give you some advice :)

Wonderfull Yitzhak.

Your composition is great and the architecture is very nice. I like the way you take this shot, the blue and white are perfect.

Congratulation.

wow !! it's wonderful ...I'd like to know the function of these towers , 'cause we don't have them here in Iran ( or at least I didn't see )

Wonderful composition Avigur ! It´s great !
Congratulations !

bscheller (56) 2005-03-23 12:58

wow, simply stunning architecture. the photo is so surreal that it feels more like some sort of a painting than an actual piece of structure. the white colour is very beautiful in the background of the deep blue sky!

an amazing picture yitzhtak
shalom!
