Generations

Photo Information

Frankfurt is the city in Germany with the highest number of modern, tall buildings but you also find some bank buildings in the inner city that are 100-200 years old - depending where you stand, you have a chance to get them both on one picture

This is a really nice shot, Axel. I like the contrast of the old and the new building that was pictured by the colours too: warmer old and colder new.

Wonderful contrast between old and new. I remember these buildings when I was in Frankfurt a few years ago for Achema.Is this photo another example of HDR? Which software do you use: Photoshop or Photomatix?

I love this shot Axel, the contrast between the two periods, this really shows the loving care, attention and skill of the old craftsmen compared to modern buildings

Lovely shot, I agree with all the above comments, the pedantic side of me says perhaps the perspective on the new building could do with straightening a bit?
