[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
this building is originally in an (imho) offensive tone of pink + black.
as usually, power wires are everywhere.
2001 is its # at Faria Lima Avenue, and also the name of a big store located just beside the pink one.
cropped, switched to b&w,
comments welcome.


hope you like it.

A great composition. The lines, the clouds, the contrat, the bulidind, all makes a wonderful imake. I like this 2001 at the bottom. Very very well seen, captured and processed. Isabel

The b&w surely conceals however "offensive" it may look in color, Isabel ;-) Fine geometry all over the place, I like the upward-looking angle and the "2001" sign at the bottom. The clouds and sky look great; perhaps keeping them in color and desaturating everything around to b&w would also have been an interesting alternative. Well captured.

This one, I really like. The composition with all the wires is very interesting. You see, you can be inspired!! The great thing is having the 2001 as a base.

Really nice "stripes" composition. I like your combination with black lines and curves of building. B/W version is very impressive. Well done, Isabele...

Isabel, another great picture. The wires make it look as if the picture had been cut and reassembled. Excellent use of B/W medium. Super Job !

A very nice picture, and excellent use of black and white, I like it a lot.

Perfect composition and almost very well exposed picture; I wish the side of the tower was bit less dark so the wire would be a bit more visible.
Well done anyway and thanks for sharing.

You hope, and i like very mutch.
O B&W colabora para dramatizar a imagem. O corte em diagonal da fiacao quebra o linear da foto.
Mais uma vez parabens.

Great geometrical abstract. I only have doubts about that black triangle at the top, and would try other crop as shown in WS.

The use of B&W is appropriate here 100%
Well seen and captured, Isabelle.

Tres belle image de Melle Isabel qui aprés "magnum" récemment témoigne à nouveau de la qualité trés acéréeet originale de son regard !

The lines dividing the image and the lines on the building work well together. A very striking shot. Good use of B&W, well done.

I like it very much Isabelle! well used B&W and the diagonal composition is very strong and also made stronger by the striped pattern overlay from the cables. Very very well done!

This is a wonderfull composition with these lines Isabel. Your choise of angel is really nice and the cloud to the right finsihes the composition in a great way.

Pink and black! - yuck - good job that you did a B/W.
The different lines works great together in this composition, I especially like how the numbers "2001" are done with a line raster. Oh - and the dark upper left corner is good too.

Adorei esta composição. Todas estas linhas estão perfeitas.

Parabéns

A very interesting composition, Isabel. Most people have to clone wires out of their photos, but you have cleverly used them to create a beautifully unique composition. Very well seen.

Just noticed this. not much to add, but I like the waya the power lines cut across it.

Great graphic shot. I like the variety of wires' thickness and distances between them set against evenly striped building. The small loop on one of the wires nicely catches the eye and '2001' sign is great inclusion too. You did right with B&W (hmm..rhyme! :))
