About Subject background: Traffic lights, hanging loose, a bit off-centered, no support from the sides, just fragile connections between them, fighting against nature. Might be a metaphor for our lives ;-)

PS concept: puuh =) Grain reduction, IR filtering, toning change, special blur filtering, worked on the contrast levels to get the traffic lights as bold as possible.

As always: Honest comments are highly appreciated.

Hi Ursula,

ich bemühe mich immer, aus dem "normalen" zu schöpfen. zu mehr habe ich leider oft nicht die zeit, urlaub ist nur 2x im jahr und viiieeeelll zu kurz =)

LG,
Thilo

Hi Hugo,

you're right with the boldness here. to be honest, I underexposed this image a bit and the pentax grain is too heavy to get more details in here. so I went for the very bold solution.

I'm glad that I now have the D70 =)

take care,
thilo

You caught me, Patrick ;-)

problem is that the Pentax is too grainy for these kind of special FX. and the pentax is one of the best low-grain compact cameras out there. one of the reasons I switch to the D70. =)

good eye on this, was a pain in the neck for me.

take care,
Thilo

such a simple photo but it is dramatic with the clouds and the contrast.. very nice abstract.

Just shows that there is something to see everywhere.. great capture..

Omar Rifaat   {K:10141} 11/6/2004
Very nice composition. I love the sky. Looks like the traffic lights are trying to tell the clouds to stop and go. For me its a metaphor about man's obsession with control vs nature's freedom . . .

Hi Thilo, Excellent sky, and i do like the cool blueis grey tone. Works well. The silhouettes of the traffic light would work very well, but I think in this case, the lack of contrast in them renders them a bit flat, which doesn't quite fit with the theme, I believe.... Other than that, a quite impressive skyscape.

Cheers,

Hugo

Excellent - and very original - work Thilo! When the sky does not offer enough light, we have to turn to artificial sources ;-) Great combination, compo and a very beautiful sky!
