Helix of light Photo

Photographer’s Note

My first post.
This is a picture of the DN/Expressen building in Stockholm. The fog created a nice effect not fully visable here. This is the original picture, scaled down from 3072x2048.
Picture taken at 17:05. I will try to retake this picture later with tripod, when the conditions are right again.

All comments wellcome, don't be afraid to give me some bad reviews.

This is an amazing first shot, Johan.
I like the spiral stairs with that special lights. It's almost a b/w photo, with intersting spots of yellow and red. I like it very much.
And welcome to TE. Keep on!

Very good first posting, Johan. The geometrical shapes are quite absorbing here. The horizontal dashes of light almost look like a morse code. It's good you took the picture all the way to the top of the building without cropping that red light. Maybe another interesting version would be to take this at dusk, when the sky is turning dark, but is not yet totally black. Anyway, very well done!

Lovely shot.
You could perhaps correct the converging verticals and straighten up the tower to do it justice.

Hej Johan, kul att du kom! And your first entry is very well done. I like the almost B&W with just a few stains of color. I think you could crop the right side a bit, the empty space is a little too big.

Kind of fascinating...

If I allow myself a remark, I would have framed the tower slightly more on the right, putting the helix at 2/3 from the left...
