with a building that tall, we human look so small, aren't we? :)

> Jon said : Jan 25, 2006 16:46

このビル思い出すな~。青空のグラディエントはとてもいいですね。ただし、もうちょっと上の方さえ見えれば…って感じですが。もしかして、そのまま撮りたかったでしょうか。

very fine b&w, great POV and perspective..

> marimo said : Jan 25, 2006 18:02

Great B/W Photo. I Like it

Thanks Eric, NoWords and Marimo!
We human are so small against not only this tall building but also nature, I guess.. :-)

Jonさん、ありがとうございます!
う〜ん、歩いている人をフレームに入れようとしたら、こうなってしまいました...。

very neat like always :)

> tetsu said : Jan 25, 2006 19:17

Thanks a lot, Budi!!

Wow. The height of that building. This shot shows scale so well. Love it.

> tetsu said : Jan 25, 2006 22:46

Thanks Gavin!
The building which is the government office of Tokyo is too high, I guess. :-P

> Charlotte said : Jan 26, 2006 00:00

I love the composition and the solarized tones.

> don said : Jan 26, 2006 00:07

The tiny man against the huge building makes this a very attention-getting picture. Well done!

> tetsu said : Jan 26, 2006 00:50

Thanks Charlotte and Don!
I found a man walking and took this photo hastily. :-)

> Gary said : Jan 26, 2006 00:54

very powerful perspective, how do we avoid getting crushed when government is this big

> tetsu said : Jan 26, 2006 01:35

Thanks Gary!
When the goverment is crushed, I will be despair at first. And then I will live like primitive people as Bush said. :-P

> Mats said : Jan 26, 2006 03:10

That is one huge looking building. Almost intimidating. I can only second what already been said, great perspective.

> Paul Woolrich said : Jan 26, 2006 03:33

Wow this is a very cool shot and works very well in B&W. I have actually been to the top of this building almost 14 years ago when I was in Japan for five weeks. I was only 13 at the time but still have vivid memories of the building.

> Melanie said : Jan 26, 2006 03:34

Amazing that man can build structures so grand. How is it that I am unable to build a snow fort without it crashing in on me?

> GKP said : Jan 26, 2006 06:53

Excellent.

> armadillo44 said : Jan 26, 2006 07:26

Initially thought this photo was a negative image due to the darker sky and lighter building. Seems almost a bit surreal in that sense. Nicely done.

> John said : Jan 26, 2006 08:41

Great detail and tone, I like the scale the figure gives it. Nice shot.

> tetsu said : Jan 26, 2006 09:34

Thanks Mats, Paul, Melanie, GKP, Armadillo44 and John!

> Anne said : Jan 26, 2006 09:52

Cool photo! Great shot of the building...and i love how you scaled it!

> tetsu said : Jan 26, 2006 09:53

Thanks Anne!

> Davd said : Jan 26, 2006 10:20

I like the angle you chose for this picture. I also like how the human element depicted the scale of this large struture. well done.

> tetsu said : Jan 26, 2006 10:26

Thanks Davd!
The point of this photo is the small man, I guess.

> pooh said : Jan 26, 2006 12:21

neat detail and patterning!

> tetsu said : Jan 26, 2006 17:09

Thanks Pooh!

> ARSH said : Jan 27, 2006 05:43

Nice shot. Light is amazing ...

> Phil said : Jan 27, 2006 07:00

Stunning building, so much height. Very unlike my city hall thats for sure.

> tetsu said : Jan 27, 2006 09:40

Thanks Arsh and Phil!

> Julio said : Jan 27, 2006 10:58
