About This picture was made during a night shot session with Calle & Chrissie near Times Square. I worked some time on the original color image and made some changes to format, detail and colors (obviously). If you wish I may upload the original one ;-)

Comments are appreciated a lot.

Hi Ursula,

das Problem ist, dass bei der Reklame rechts einfach zu viele Details fehlen. Selbst mit PS-Tricks holt man da nicht so viel raus. Deshalb habe ich es geopfert. Außerdem wollte ich das quadratische Format erreichen, dazu musste eine der Reklamen über die Klinge springen ;-)

Danke und Grüße, Thilo

Dear Paul,

No tripod in this scene. Times Square is heavy lighted even in the very night so that one can shoot without any tripod ;-)

Thx for your comment, Thilo

Dear Thilo,
only now lokking to the UF friends comment I discovered the original shot...
In brief: what you did is simpy special!!!
I only appreciate both version becasue as in color as in B/W are simply amazing
At last I agree completely with you (to show all the entire process to share our skills in photography each other to grow professionally)
I suggest it (don't upload the original) to mantain pure its magic feel...but it was an opinion not based on real facts.
You dimostrated the contrary and I appreciated it!!
My best compliments
Thilo and sorry for my bad typed english.
I'm trying to improve it (too) by using this wonderful site!
All the Best
Paolo

Dear Paolo,

thanks for the kind comments. As for the original picture: Hard to determine what's better. I know that some of the photographers here don't want to upload the original picture, just the final results counts. I am one of those guys who like to show the original material if someone asks for it =)

cheers, thilo

Hi Uwe,

beim King habe ich mir besondere Mühe gegeben ;-) ich wollte das Kinn so plastisch wie möglich haben, und habe deshalb 3x den bereich maskiert und als eben multipliziert =) freut mich, dass dir das King Kinn aufgefallen ist ;-)

Dear Hugo,

thanks for the in-depth comment. You mentioned a lot of things that attracted you. THAT was one of the main problems for me with that picture. I thought that it actually has too many details to watch. I'm glad that you and the other guys liked it anyway. cheers, thilo

Ahmet Baki Kocaballi   {K:13618} 6/14/2004
Hi Thilo,
a really great capture. Moving cabs, strong background and effect of smoke constitute a great atmosphere and composition,I also liked the b&w conversion.

...na da kann ich mich den vorrednern bezüglich der güte dieses bildes doch nur uneingeschränkt anschließen. wirklich sehr gelungen. hugo hat die sehenswertendetails ja schon sehr gut aufgezählt, wobei das kinn vom king auch ein besonderes highlight des bildes zu sein scheint. solche bilder kann man wohl auch nur in new york machen....

Hugo de Wolf Hugo de Wolf   {K:185110} 6/13/2004
Hi Thilo, Awesome shot. Definately one for my favourites (again) The atmosphere is superb. IMO, that's mainly due to the following elements:

The moving cab in front, the cool blue tone, the billboards and, of course, the smoke. Thut the graphic composition is also aided by the text on the fascades, and the angle of the lens, which seems to be approximately the same angle as the human eye, which makes the image look very natural. Great shot.

My attention is attracted to the transition of the smoke colour and transparency over the Mama Mia poster. Very subtle detail, as it manages to keep the viewers attentio perfectly.

Outstanding shot!

Cheers,

Hugo

Dear Gayle & Kristina, I tried a lot with this picture and finally got the idea to change the toning to blue. I think this fits well with the mood of the scene. The advertisings showed up with more contrast when converting to grey scale and back to RGB.

Credits go out to Pedro who gave me the appropriate hints how to do this. Thanks mate!
