photoblog image Entrance of House

Entrance of House

The front of this house looked nice enough to take a picture. I especially like the reflections in the windows which give a nice idea of the surrounding buildings. This is one of the many similar entrances which are next to each other.

Taken in the place Kop van Zuid in Rotterdam.

TECH-INFO: despites the original images was fine, I gave it a little HDR treatment to get more punchy contrasts, hoping you like the result too.
I used aperture f/8.0 to get maximum constrast and sharpness of my lens, because there is not so much depth.

The hint of HDR lifts this picture Paul. I like the reflections too. For me it just lacks a true focal point. My eye isn't held in any place and I'm wandering through the image and ending up not quite satisfied.
LightningPaul: It's indeed another kind of image. Personally I like all the simple and straight-on lines and shapes a lot. Though a true focal point cannot be found. Many thanks for the comments.
I like it for all the reasons you took itwink
LightningPaul: Thank you smile
HDR conversion used well here, Paul. The reflections really lift the shot from the ordinary!
