stockholm by night, a photo from Uppland, Svealand

Photographer's Note

Here is another picture taken during the short stay in Stockholm.The month of May is a risky gamble for photographers especially if they deal with northern countries. Rain and cold were on the agenda. But on this occasion I was around at the blue hour and the reflections of the wete pedestrian alley were pretty. This a very popular place near Gamla Stan, I imagine it dates from the early 20th cemtury.

Izzet,
I like here the splendid golden colours and light. Perhaps you can crop a bit on the right to center the gate. The gate is tlted some degrees. Nevertheless this is a very attractive photo. My compliments.

Merhaba...
Yine harika bir gece fotoğrafı... Persfektifi ve özellikle ıslak zemindeki yansımalar harika... Sarı renk ağırlığı ortasındaki gökyüzünün koyu mavisi ise enfes... Tebrikler ve teşekkürler..

Very nice image, I like it.
There's a beautiful light, reflecting on the street and with a warm colour.
The perspection is excellent.
I've been several times in Stockolm, it's one of my favourite places!

Beautiful work, Izzet, just the way to deal with a wet evening in the city and make a beautiful photo even under these seemingly adverse conditions. I like the symmetrical framing and the deep perspective that is well supported by the arrangement of lamps and lightbulbs along the old façades. The reflections on the wet pavement are very nice as well.

Good points:
- nice symmetrical composition;
- perfect timing for taking photo, it's dark enough, but sky is not yet completely black;
- reflections from wet street makes photo very nice. Rain is useful for street nightshots;
Minor imperfections, which I have tried to adjust in the workshop:
- slightly underexposed, buildings are too dark;
- could be a bit sharper.

Altın renginde boş bir sokak ve mükemmel simetrik perspektif. Yine şahane kompozisyon.

You managed to use the bad weather in your favor, Izet, and the result is really nice. The weth floor reflects nicely the street buildings and light. I also appreciate the symmetry of this emty street shot.
regards,
Y.

Well I can see your trip to Stockholm was really worth the while. Gorgous lighting in this scene. The wetness really adds to the reflection aspect too. Very nicely done. See the workshop details posted. Thanks Izzet!

Merhaba Izzet,
You took a good advantage of the rain, as this wet ground is what makes this a special image. The blue hour, the symetrical composition and the lighting are also enhancing this lovely capture, as well as Linas's WS.
