Description
Been out due to my internet cable being damaged. Glad to be back. Here's one from the archives, for taking pictures is out of question: too much work. Thank you for commenting on my previous.

I like it very much but....I dont know why !! :)
BEAUTIFUL
like the contrast you have created in this...works very well to make an intersting capture
Striking shapes and tones in this composition.
Great contrasts in shape and color!
So glad to see your work again , The most important is to share, and you B&W artistic photoghrapic work do have a very imprtant place here in Renderosity...
Absolutely gorgeous Nikolay!
Great study of light and shadow.
Strong and deeply intriguing angle of shot. Pretty game of light and shadow.
A writer once wrote that cities have "in-between" times where everything seems dropped-in from another planet. This is one of those times. A mysterious in-between moment with a jaundiced hue, the back wall both impersonal and in reflection, and the foreground wall completely in silhouette. Cities allow such combinations, different worlds packed next to each other and forced to speak to each other; and they seem hand-made for sensitive photographers like yourself. Your treatment of the roof of the far building makes it look like there is no building, just a facade and the hint of a roof & sky...I live in the U.S. Midwest, and you get that sky right before tornadoes & thunderstorms: It's eerie. Quiet and foreboding and not quite settled, an agitating, strange & beautiful shot. Calls one back...
love the contrast in shapes,tones and lines
Beautiful Nikolay! I agree with anahata.c, I too have seen the skies with that eerie feel and tone, the difference being that its not at all frightening in this as it is in real life. I think many of your works fit the 'in-between' times as that description says. Hope you are well!
Stunning composition as always!
Love the composition. Good stuff!
I really like this one! Very well done, Clive
Beautiful lighting... :) and an excellent picture. :)
I like this work, Nikolay. Hugs. Di. xx
Thank heaven for one's archives filled with unused work! This is a wonderful study in contrasts that you have found to show us. The old against the modern, the dark against the light, the filled spaces against the empty sky. Wonderous
I love the light and shadow byplay here...there is an extreme measure of elegance to this image, brought out by its black and white nature...everything is so pared down, so "of itself" and it's quite amazing. I get the impression that this particular section of the city is interestingly layered as the building in silhouette looks a bit more "classical" than the more modern, lighter building behind. Great contrast there!
