Photographer’s Note

This picture was taken at the Oklahoma City Bombing Memorial. This person was sitting looking across the water where the building used to be and probably thinking why? What made this guy did what he did? It just doesn't make sense to us. I feel sorry for all the families that lost somebody that day.
I hope all this pictures help to remind their love ones. I'll keep posting more of the series next week.
I hope you are liking them.
Thanks

At first lance, I was going to suggest making this into a portrait format, but I now like the wide blue space on the right. I like how the image is split into a mutlitude of colours - the green steps, the blue, water, and the colour of the building. Oh, and the placing of the man is very good as well.

Hola Daniel,

Otra vez aquí, después de más tiempo de lo que yo querría. ¿Cómo va todo? Esta foto es preciosa, la composición es estupenda,me gusta el reflejo en el agua y esa sensación geométrica que transmite. El pensador le da toque humano y ayuda a centrar el interés. Bien captada la soledad y la calma... Bella imagen!

Un saludo,
Angel.

this photo is the one I like best from you series of shots from the Oklahoma City Bombing Memorial, I find it perfectly describes what your note says - why on earth somebody would want to do anything like that? well-composed shot, I particularly like the several straight angles pointing towards the lone figure of the man. very well seen and presented.
best,
Kristine

Hi Daniel,
This is a very beautiful capture of a rather thoughtful moment. The reflections are great and the composition, with the person in the corner, is amazing.

Hola Daniel

Una escenario apropiado para la disipación y reflexión, tal como lo expresa graficamente el sujeto.
La composición resalta enormemente en el basto juego de secuencias horizontales, frente a unos reflejos maravillosos en el agua, a la cual le das un toque amplio de trascendencia.
Felicidades

John

Hi Daniel,
nice atmosphere on your image. I like his attitude and the surounding. Very nice reflections on the surface of the water. Nice colours, Nino.

Merline (6574) 2008-01-25 4:32

Hi Daniel,
thank you for visiting my gallery. I do find this one very good. It's subject is a difficult one. I like very much the graphic composition, straight lines, a lot of space for the water and the lovely color reflections. The inclusion of the pensive person is impeccable.

TFS
