Golden hour in Hamburg, a photo from Hamburg, West

Photographer's Note

This weekend the weather in England is back to the usual low so I am back to my German archives. I have previously shared a very different photo from the very same point of view here:
https://www.trekearth.com/viewphotos.php?l=7&p=1402752
I just realised that I have never showed here a photo of St Michael’s church. It is considered to be the most iconic church in Hamburg. Its copper Baroque tower is 132 meters high. An interesting fact: the composer and pianist Johannes Brahms was baptized on May 26, 1833 in this church.

Czesc Mariusz!
Twoja ulubiona pora chociaz niebo nie takie jak lubisz.
Ciekawy fragment miasta, wieza z zegarem robi wrazenie.
Przyjemny kadr, super kolorki i swiatlo.
Jest klimacik.
Milego wieczoru i pieknej niedzieli.
Krzysztof

Hello Mariusz,
A beautiful view of Hamburg with the tower very well placed in the middle in between the houses. The illuminations are wonderful and very well captured, the warm colours are very attractive.

Hi Mariusz
Somewhere I was meant to visit in the middle of last year. Sometime!
A good appropriate title with that golden light on the water and buildings.
cheers
Ian

Hello Mariusz,

A lovely silky reflection in the motion blurred water, with good sharpness and warm colors, that contrast well with the cooler blue sky tones. Tfs!

Hello Mariusz,

Pre-digital, this is a well taken shot, showing your awareness of compposition and a desire to include the warmth of the f/g and their associated reflections.
The gap between the f/g buildings allows the tower of St. Michael's to make a strong appearance.

My warm regards,
Bev :-)

Hello Mariusz,
You found a very good point of view to present the tower of St. Michael’s Church in between other buildings and with a canal or a river in the foreground.
Something in the foreground is confusing me. We see a lot of people sitting on tables and this looks like a terrace on the street but I can't find out to which building this terrace belongs. Also, these tables don't seem to be at the street level. Below that level we can also look into an illuminated room where no one is and this room then seems to look out on the water.
The photo has very attractive colours and colour contrasts.
Best regards, Paul

mariusz

the colors of the compo with these golden hues added a special beauty where the tower and these façades are the main subjects. excellent sample of local architecture.

take care
