Where Fine Art Architecture and Street Photography Mix

- Architecture photography or street photography - where is the line? Does street always have to be spontaneous and in motion?
Admittedly, hanging around with a tripod doesn't really scream "street photography" and my intention was clearly architecture photography.
Nevertheless, for me the image "Dazed & Confused" has a touch of street photography in an architectural composition (and it was still quite spontaneous, because to get this shot, I was running behind this confused cyclist with the tripod in hand).
Well, probably I'm going too far out on a limb here and probably better just call it fine art architectural photography. I've never been one for definitions in art anyway.
This tunnel for pedestrians and cyclists connects two parts of Zurich and was visually upgraded during a renovation with the floor painting by artists Sabina Lang and Daniel Baumann.
I was already photographing the tunnel a few years ago - when it was much less filthy. And since I like some of the old, cleaner images much better, I took the liberty of showing them in the video.
So the difference between video and 3 photographs is not because of Photoshop (I'm not using Photoshop anyways) but because of time. Just look at the corresponding parts in the video as some kind of reconstructions.
Thanks for watching!

Very cool unusual non-verbal presentation and excellent impactful images. Love your work. You deserve a large following.
Thanks alot Rolf!
We'll see how many more people bump into my channel and deem it worthy to follow :)
I've watched this video three times and each time I enjoy it more. A unique journey of composition and skill in capturing the shot. What is so fun is that we are being constantly pushed with ever more interesting shots. I'm biased though as love this stuff. This is definitely a video for someone that's lost direction and needs a hefty push or just to delight in this chap's passion for composition. Subscribed.
What a nice comment, thank you very much!
Always happy if my work can inspire or even push other people's creativity.
Cheers
super cool! thanks for the inspiration
Thank you. Always happy if I can spark some inspiration!
I learned that street photography takes just as much if not more planning than architectural photography. you will get spontaneous moments from time to time but you're kind of always setting up your scene and photo no matter what.
Although there were and are street photographers who just roam around and spontaneously shoot if they spot an interesting scene, I think you are generally right.
For my next video, I tried to do "real" street photography last weekend and I did exactly what you said: I looked for a "stage" with a pleasing composition and then waited and shot burst mode, when something happened.
To also record a video while doing street (alone), this "sit and watch your stage" approach is probably the only way anyways.
Absolutely love tunnel race. Awesome intro, great video in general.
Thank you very much!
Super
Danke!
Well done Thomas.... Very good choice of music and with the ambient sounds very exciting
Merci :)
Cool stuff Thomas, happy new year!
Thank you and same to you :)
Great video!
I am beginner in photography.
Now I understand that the most difficult in photography to choose the right image
Yes, making the right decisions is often difficult. What to photograph, how to frame it, what to showcase etc.
Having a vision in my mind helps me, as does following my gut feelings.
Thank you :)
Great work man ...!!!
Thank you :)
And happy new year!
@@thomasrhinow Same to you.
Frohes neues Jahr Thomas!
Danke Kees, das wünsche ich Dir auch!
@@thomasrhinow Danke!
Beautiful video and also great choice of music. What's the track at the beginning?
Thanks
Thank you :)
The first track is "Rogue Planet" from Kevin Hartnell's album "CC BY-SA 4.0".
The slow zoom that you are doing in this video is done in post correct? I assume it's a static shot and then in the video edit you zoom in or out? I am just starting my journey into video editing so please forgive me if this is a dumb question. Video was great.
Yes, you're right. All zooming and often panning is done in post. I sacrifice overall resolution to be able to do this without great loss of quality (film in 4k and post in 1080p), because this enables lots of creative possibilities for a lone wolf filmer.
Hello, which is the camera and optic in the photography?
Hi, it's the Canon 5DII with adapted vintage glass: Olympus OM Zuiko 18mm f/3.5 and C/Y Zeiss Planar 100mm f/2. Cheers
Hi Thomas! What brand and model is your backpack? I've been trying to find a backpack that lets me carry my tripod on top, but all I find is either lateral or center carriers, and 1 or 2 at the bottom.
Hi IBCS
It's the Lowepro Flipside 400 AW. The tripod hold is actually in the center too, but on top works quite well - depending on how much space there is to maneuver. Dense forests or crowds are tricky :)
It's a good and sturdy bag. I bought it in 2009 and it's still whole and serves me well. The only downside is, that the weight is not well redirected from shoulders to hip belt.
Cheers
@@thomasrhinow Thank you Thomas! I really excited to finally find the bag with the tripod carrier on top, guess I have to be creative as well then hehehe, Cheers.
