8.4 MEGAPIXEL

New York - Settembre 1989 View gallery (18 photos)

wtc 5 sent on 23 Novembre 2014 (16:08) by Roberto P. 17 comments, 4309 views.

at 63mm, 1/5 f/8.0, ISO 200, hand held. New York, United States.

L'originale è stata scattata con una Nikon FE e un obiettivo Nikkor 20mm F/3.5 AI. Quando è stata introdotta la lettura automatica degli Exif i dati relativi a fotocamera e obiettivo sono stati cambiati a favore di quelli con cui è stata effettuata la digitalizzazione. Il wide spinto ovviamente ha l'effetto di stirare la torre, mostrandola ancora più alta. Eppure è proprio grazie a tale deformazione che, tra le mie immagini, è quella che meglio rende l'idea della vertigine e del tremendo impatto visivo e volumetrico che questi immensi monoliti generavano quando gli stavi di fronte: ti trovavi davanti i 400 metri di parete senza la mediazione di scala d'un avancorpo, quale generalmente si trova all'ingresso dei mega-grattacieli. Emanavano una sensazione di titanica potenza. Sembravano destinati a durare quanto le piramidi d'Egitto... - P.S.: Gli archi a ogiva visibili sopra le aperture dell'ingresso avevano una funzione strutturale di trasferimento dei carichi, a tre a tre dai pilastri ravvicinati della facciata a quelli più grandi del pianterreno onde permettere portali d'accesso di misura adeguata. Bruno Zevi nel suo "Spazi dell'architettura moderna" (Torino, Einaudi, 1973) nel capitolo dedicato a Minoru Yamasaki (il principale architetto del complesso) aveva definito "stucchevoli (...) i goticizzanti stilemi del World Trade Center" (didascalia alla tav. 638). #Grattacieli #Pellicola #Jura #Jura87

Suggestive gallery. Evokes memories ... I have not seen directly as you but indirectly through the films that have passed on the big screen. I was impressed the king kong of '76 ... I was almost seven years and see the creature of the master Rambaldi climb with Jessica Lange on one of the two towers was the best ...

I well remember the King Kong produced by De Laurentis. I liked it less than "original" of 1933 by Merian C. Cooper and Ernest B. Schoedsack (I just consulted Wikipedia) that of the 2005 Peter Jackson. But the "pupazzone" Rambaldi and special effects "analog" were remarkable.
It seems to me that appear to climb up with Jessica on the North Tower (WTC 1) and to escape from the men with the flamethrower, he jumped on the South Tower (WTC 2) to undergo the final attack from there by helicopter Bell UH-1 Iroquois armed with heavy machine guns. But he removed the plunge can overthrow paws two or three, whose pilots tontoloni had inexplicably got too close (like tarlucchi piloting biplanes forty years earlier). In the end, he was mortally wounded, straight for 400 meters, crashingperhaps the point where I took the picture.
Thanks for the ride Raffadelsessantanove.

A photo from the air of decided ... Perspective accentuated, plant color but essential "character", an extreme vignetting which further limits the angle of shadows that design geometries geometries. I really like, beyond the iconic value it feels a little too Spiderman in look, style seen distinctly "comic strip." Compliments

I like the shadow on the left. Breaks in the lines of the composition.

The shadow I caught accidentally. At 26 years away I remember that I took this picture and then I entered the tower and I took pictures of the lobby that lie ahead in the gallery; then I took the elevator to the rooftop terrace. I have not waited for the right time to take it.
However Seeing her again known that in fact interrupts the lines acts as a "pendant" with the darker building that is barely visible on the right.

Thanks for the ride and appreciation Raffaele.

very, very beautiful, with its play of light and shadows, the majesty of a demolished building "human ignorance", a bully who does not want to pray to God as they please those who wanted to make his sensational terrible act ... ..
a day unfortunately forgettable, although we would like it all really ....
large photo ID, unique shot.
thanks for resent proposed, Roberto.
ciauuuzz Mario
