[Ligne directrice - Note] Note du photographe
Eurotower, headquarters of the European Central Bank.
It's all about the money. And about men in dark suits and grey hair.
On the left, partly behind the Eurotower, is Commerzbank Tower, 259m and 56 stories, the second tallest skyscraper in Europe.

What do you think about the small silhouette in a corner?

To fit all in picture required some planning. I backed as far across the street as possible without getting any solid obstacles in front and waited for a while so that a delivery truck left the foreground. Decided to not do any perspective correction to emphasize size.

Interesting contradictions in that place , just 200 meters towards the left you would find the underworld , those greyhaired business oxidated men looking for fresh oriental flesh in the bahnhof brothels ,drug dealers , policemen with a neonazi look alike , dust , two faces of the same world just separated by meters ...About european coin and union i don't believe in it , but it is other issue
My best regards

Hi Kari.

The view is lovely, great but I think it needs a little more contrast between the building and the sky.

Anyway, I like it.

Rgs, Oscar

Interesting POV ( what i mean is that I have a lot of pictures of these buildings and none of them from this POV ).Very good composition!!!
We have been quite close to each other last month!!! Haha!!!
Regards!!!

Hi Kari,
I like the way you've framed the bright building against the cloud-enhanced sky. I also think the people and the starry sign add to the compo. You've managed difficult lighting well.

Hi Kari
Excellent shot to the modern buildings. I like the pov and compo. The details to the euro signs is great.
Nice sharp and contrast.
Thanks for share.
PD: I want euro money, jejejeje

Well made compo Kari of this Frankfurt skyscrapers - typical for the city of this fine town. The € symbol interested placed in this compo. Good work.

Terve Kari,
Ah ah our symbol of power, where the Gods of €€€ live and decide the fate of our countries ! Good framing of this to be famous building, I like the way the € symbol lightens the darkest part of the building.
Have a nice day,
Jean-Yves

I like the silhouette in the corner. It's actually the reason I like the photo. Well done!
