Photographer's Note
In the new Ørestad area in copenhagen, the metro line is above ground with elevated stations.
This photo is from the same standpoint as my posting from yesterday, I just turned a little to the left.
So how is this learning about the world through photography?
We experience the world in many different ways, "classic" perspectives and "Kodak-spots" is one valuable way, and going close to the matter looking at isolated instances of softness/crispness, darkness/lightness, heavy/light, round/straight, what have you, stuff that are close to the way we sense things, that's another.
I had a lesson in crispness when I studied this station (and the unususal bright winter sky) through my camera viewfinder.
I hope your senses enjoy a sharpening like mine did.

Such a good abstraction of modern architecture Torben! The triangel in the corner and the big open sky works very well. The colorscale on blue to grey with just one little sparkle of red is also great. Very well done!

See, i would have missed that too. I would have seen, blue sky and some poles. You saw a picture. :) I like the composition, the diagonal, but IMHO, a bit to much sky mabye. But i guess you have a purpose with that and have allready tried less sky when looking at it on your computer.

I like the concept and the blue color, unfortunately there were too much empty space there. I'm not suggesting to crop, i just like to see some clouds on the sky. Just My 25 Rupiahs.

Nice shot, i like this great expanse of blue to look at, and the silhouetted metro line occupying just a little of the frame. Very good, a TE shot indeed. Well done.

Oh Torben - We seams to be in our blue periode these days ;-)
Some would say theres too much blue in this shot but I seams to like it - you right - theres something special over this sky.
This photo also the solution to your riddle - Fine work

Unlike yestaerday's shot, the large sky area is very effective here. I also like that red/white sign and the diagonal lines of the railings. It is vwery well composed and captured. I like it, Torben, well done.

Wonderfull Torben.
I like the detail and composition. the blue and the metal work well. The diagonal was a good choise, too.
Well done

my turn to ask myself what i can learn about the world through TE, torben :))
well, it´s such a beautiful abstract...
you were bold in leaving this amount of sky, kind of unbalancing the triangle it would make in a more 'traditional' (if one could say so) composition.
also, i must admit i do prefer when you frame people - no matter how - in your shots.
it´s a beautiful work of art nonetheless.
