Theater in black and white


The photo of Copenhagen's new theater in the harbour was taken on a moody day. I like it for its light and the way the heavy clouds reflects in the dark glass.

  2. I really like the sky in the windows. A bit too much black in the overall photo?

  3. Thanks for the nice comments.

    @Vogon Poet: It is a tad on the dark side, but that's what I aimed for. The theater is a very dark building (black actually), and I wanted to convey that fealing :-)

  5. Did you crop the photo a bit? Now it seems more effective and, sorry, I missed that the building itself was black...

  6. @Vogon Poet: No, it's right out of camera, so no crop and no fiddling with the lightness. And BTW criticism is always welcome. It's the only way to learn, and I'm still learning :-)

    @Julie: Thanks for the praise, and the same about your photos. Even though I haven't commented yet (I will) I've enjoyed your site. Actually I've put it on my blog list.

  7. This really works well in b+w . . . what an interesting structure and perspective you gave us. I would definitely go back there and see how the light plays on it.
