now that's wonderful tree... it's gudge... and infrared makes it totally stunning...
wonderful

most certainly beautiful *clap*

the angle, the perspective, color, everything matches perfectly ))

Great! And also great use of infra. Full version is so wonderful, perfect for this cloudy, gray day here

I've been wondering where have you been, haven't seen you around for ages
Interesting perspective and angle.

Wow! I love everything about this one: the angle, composition, shooting height, infrared, details, colours... all fantastic! (BTW, did you mean C4000Z, not C400Z?)

Again wellcome Beautiful shot!

GREAAAAAAAT!!!!! love it. top marks!

WOW this is superbe

thanks trevorm, you're right, of course.
thank you all for your kind words.

Really nice POV.

Beautiful work Daniela!
Great details and exposure!
Carlos

wow... I'm a big fan of IR works and I'm in love with this pano... just great capture...

Wow how beatiful
I love the the infrared, looks so ethereal...and the angle is perfect.

Great +10

Your elite status is yours and well deserved. You are missed and I hope you find a way to balance that work load.
The IR works perfectly as does the composition. I'd rotate this a bit CW just to straighten the verticals. Nice work Daniela!

Great details and composition!
Florin

Beautiful panorama (it is a panorama, right?)

Beautiful capture of the whites too!

On the full version there is a "ghost" bus on the righthand side. I'd heal it together with the car on the left

It sure looks tilted.
Straightening it is probably worth a try unless your intention was to keep it this way.

The frame is not proportional to the image itself.

Hope I don't come out to harsh. Just my honest thought...

Daniela!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

One of my first friends here at GFX Man, I dropped you an email or a message on your site awhile back...glad to see your doing well.

A teacher? I guess Exams went well after all

Your 'status' is in no danger from being revoked....we would lose half our elites that way

The photo is actually above your usual...which was already fantastic, I'm just so glad to see you back I really can't put energy into commenting on the work...

i think everyone is glad with your come back! +10. you know how much i love your photos o_o i'm a total addict.

Hi Daniela. I enjoy this photo. It's very unique in composition and works well in IR.
I can imagine that many young boys have climbed this unusual tree. It calls out to be climbed.

Great work as always.

Michelle

i´m glad to see new post from you Daniela! I saw your wonderful infra pictures on your personal site maybe 2 months ago

i like your idea to make an unusual infra panorama in the park.
i´d like to ask you what kind of equipment do you have? i mean optical filter, lens and camera...
m.

... you can't believe how grateful i am for still beeing welcome around here. *hugs and thanks everybody for their kind words*

@  ThruMyEyez : i had a slight slope when using my tripod, so the whole pic was a bit tilted *blush*. i tried several rotations but found i liked the orinal "mistake" best. the tree-trunk appears vertical and gives the whole pic more dynamic.

@  moserArtist : don't worry, i'm a wisecrack myself and don't mind constructive critic - that's what i am here for. i actually feel honored that you took so much time to notice that failure! after hours of puzzleing together those 8 single pictures i simply had enough of it to blend the tram in, too. at last the parts *could* be two individual vehicles

@  maytree : my equipment hasn't changed. same as yours: olympus 4000z + cheap vanguard tripod + hoya r 72 ir filter (+ an olympus filter adpater for camera, since it isn't a DSLR). ... oh, i just read in your profile you got yourself an EOS 350 D ... congrats!

@  MsMichelleLynn : you don't have to be a young boy to enjoy that ... i did some climbing, too, when noone was looking


and finally

@  Wysiwyg : i am glad to see you, too. i made what they call a "clean cut" a year ago. in summer 2005 it seemed like there was no job on the horizon (remember, i graduated with 1,5 .. that's an A-) ... i was already registered for social welfare since i couldn't continue my job at the university after graduation (Dresden university doesn't have money to employ graduates, only cheap student assistents ;P).
mid-august i got a call. i had moved up the waiting list and suprisingly got a job offer in Leipzig (maybe you know the city ... some of the FIFA world cup games were held there). within two days i moved there and began to work.
50-60 hours a week for lousy money, but it's a job and sometimes it's even fun.

beautiful shot!!! +10
