    Super photo – the leaning tree and lamp post next to a straight rail complete the movement in the image – really like it. Thanks for posting it 😉

  2. November 30, 2011

    Love so much this picture !

  3. November 30, 2011

    Those buildings are so neat looking. Question… is that garbage strewn about the ground?

  4. November 30, 2011

    Beautiful picture. Great job Remis. you pictured everything so perfect. Hats off to you!

  5. November 30, 2011

    So evocative — the picture makes me cold just looking at it!

    🙂

  6. November 30, 2011

    wow

  7. November 30, 2011

    Wow…I love the juxtaposition between the beautiful buildings and the garbage strewn about the streets. Very interesting.

    Congratulations on being Freshly Pressed. This is amazing photograph. Thank you, with my love, nia

    Beautiful photography with a sense of despair. I like the shades of gray and how they play off each other. Nice work!

  10. November 30, 2011

    This is such a beautiful and artistic shot. Thanks for sharing and congrats on being freshly pressed!

    Quite pretty!

  13. November 30, 2011

    Brrrrrrrrr…Gives me a chill. Absolutely beautiful photograph – you’ve captured the blustery day perfectly, even down to camera angle, how it changes the perception of the lampost and the tree – it’s as if they too are being blown by the wind. ‘So powerful’ as Red Toenails says. Love it! Congratulations on being freshly pressed, I’ll definitely be taking a look at the rest of your art.

    I influenced by your photo. maybe this photo is an image of my inside. where is this city?

    • November 30, 2011

      This is Ålesund, a city in Norway actually.

    While I hate the trash on the street due to my recycling nature, it kind of makes the picture wonderful.

    Great photo, so colourful!!

  24. November 30, 2011

    Great picture. That empty take-out box is so depressing.

  25. November 30, 2011

    The winter evening settles down
    With the smell of steaks in passageways.
    Six o clock.
    The burnt out ends of smoky days.
    And now a gusty shower wraps
    The grimy scraps
    of withered leaves about your feet
    and newspapers from vacant lots
    the showers beat
    on broken blinds and chimney pots
    and at the corner of the street
    a lonely lonely cab-horse steams and stamps
    and then the lighting of the lamps.

    T. S . ELIOT.

    He wrote it.
    You photographed it.

    Quite breathtaking. I actually shivered! I’ve always thought that rainy days should be photographed in black and white, so of course I approve of your approach. I like your composition: the angle is intriguing, and the garbage contrasts nicely with the elegant buildings.

    Congratulations on being freshly pressed!

  27. December 1, 2011

    I love the movement you have captured in this shot.
    Quite brilliant.
    🙂

  28. December 1, 2011

    I absolutely LOVE black and white photo’s. They add a sense of mystery to certain pictures. The angle in which it was taken is amazing. The picture shows different types of architecture with the buildings. My first thought was, “This picture is absolutely stunning!” Congratulations, because sometimes a great picture like this takes a while to photograph (the right setting and atmosphere at the right time).

    Thank you for sharing!

    Really tallented, the wet stone really works in the black and white. Great stuff. Check out our blog.

  31. December 1, 2011

    You are great and this picture is amazing!!! That’s actually what I’m doing for my imaging for the web project.
    I really and truly enjoy this photo. (:

  32. December 1, 2011

    Did you actually line up the picture and take many versions of it before choosing this one, or was it a shot you just happened upon?

    It’s quite moving and viscerally connected.

    • December 1, 2011

      It was a “happened upon” shot, freehand and wandering around to find motives.

  34. December 1, 2011

    Great angle. I love it in B&W too.

  35. December 1, 2011

    Amazing pic!

    i love this photo!

    i don’t see this scenery often because it’s always nice and sunny here in our country…this is refreshing for me.

    will be looking around your blog now…great shot! it looks windy and cold despite the fact that the photo is not even moving at all.

  39. December 1, 2011

    Each piece of paper is like a reminder of the homeless strewn about… a gift. a vision. a presence. a present. Lovely eye God has gifted you.

  40. December 1, 2011

    Nice shot… makes me want to stay inside where it’s warm and not so blustery! Great composition! Congrats on being Freshly Pressed!

  50. December 1, 2011

    This is wonderful! Where did you take it?

  51. December 1, 2011

    Great photo! I love that it’s black and white. Reminds me of winter here in Paris.
    (Congrats on being freshly pressed!)

  52. December 1, 2011

    Beautiful photography, Remi – for me, your work captures the essence of Norway and fills me up with nostalgia. I lived and studied in Norway for a semester and treasure some beautiful memories.

  53. December 1, 2011

    I can see your passion in your work. Good Work!

    Tough it is so rainy and dark it is magical.

  55. December 1, 2011

    Wow. This is powerful. Well done.

  56. December 1, 2011

    Love the angle of the lampposts and the tree, good choice to do the shot from low down, it adds to the sense on perspective. Good timing as well – this wouldn’t be half as good without wet pavements.

  57. December 1, 2011

    NICE AND AMAZING …YOUR PHOTOS ITS COOL MAN

  78. December 2, 2011

    Most people would write that off as a miserable day – its time I got my camera out and did some serious work again. Although i do use one of my images on my blog.
