3rd anniversary in TE !, a photo from Lisboa, South

Photographer's Note

Hi dear TE friends

Today is my 3th anniversary in TE !

I'm glad, because I learned much with the critiques and workshops !

Thanks to all !

The East Station is situated at a distance of 5 km from the heart of the old city of Lisbon and was designed by Spanish architect Santiago Calatrava.

The work was completed in 1998 at the time of the World Exhibition held in the Portuguese capital, which was involved in a project aimed at re-qualifying and up-grading the city's structures on a grand scale.
The station constitutes a node for interchanges on various levels between different means of transport: rail, buses, underground and taxis.

The entrances on both the east and west sides make the building an important connecting element in the urban fabric, capable of joining together two parts of the city that were previously separated from one another by the railway, and of linking the metropolitan area with the outskirts.
Requirements in terms of ease of access have been met by creating a large car park, while the presence of public and shopping areas links the various functions to one another forming an attractive element of quality.
Calatrava's architecture overlaps the urban fabric slightly, fitting into it perfectly while forming at the same time a strong characterising element.
It rather resembles a large insect with a skeleton-like appearance that has landed near the river, structured in the form of elegant, slim shapes.

The high quality of the technology applied to processing and using steel, cement and glass has given rise to an exceptional work of art featuring lightness and elegance.
The building was at once able to find its own active role in the local area, gradually becoming a mark that the city is unable to do without and from which it could hardly think of separating in future. The station has become a public area, not only to be passed through but also for aggregating and meeting.
Santiago Calatrava has devised a project that has proved capable of interpreting the modular structures of the shelters, the frames and the coverings into innovative design.
According to his own statements, the shapes draw their inspiration from the observation of plants and animals and from their relations with the local context, seen not as a static shape but as a moving and evolving body, in which something is always happening. Technical experience and the persuasion of the importance of following and respecting the nature of materials (Natura mater et magistra) saw to it that the cement was treated as a soft and malleable material and that the steel was bent into fluid and spontaneous shapes.
The language of geometry and that of the structure have been bonded by patient and personal research study.
The plan forms are organised rhythmically and evoke an abstract portrayal of the organic world.

The frames, like trees, support transparent glass roofing that provides both shelter from the weather and a scenic view over the EXPO area.
At night the internal lighting makes the building even more permeable, making it even more fascinating by enhancing its lightness. Text by Laura Pul

Ol� Aires!
Primeiramente, parab閚s pelo seu 3� ano aqui no TE!
Depois, como estive em Portugal em 2004 e, em Lisboa, andei muito de metr� para conhecer a cidade, al閙 disso, fiquei alguns dias na casa de uma prima minha em Rio Maior e viajava quase todos os dias de trem ou 鬾ibus para a capital, fiquei 韓timo dessa esta玢o que acho lind韘sima!
Um prazer enorme rev�-la nesta sua foto muito bem tirada, com o trem em movimento, na "hora azul", ressaltando com as luzes artificiais a interessante e bela arquitetura do lugar!
Parab閚s mais uma vez, um grande abra鏾 e um 髏imo fds!

Ol� Aires.
Especialmente esta velocidade e hora com um POV experiente e sabedor.
Reparo que deves ter disparados umas tantas vezes pois a fotografia � irrepreens韛el ...
Fico a pensar que a melhoria da 300 para 400 ser� muito mais dif韈il de alcan鏰r do que da 200 para tricent閟ima.
Um grande abra鏾
Rui

FPSintra (47) 2008-08-17 3:04

Parab閚s Aires,

Uma fotografia bem escolhida para se autopresentear e nos deliciar, tirada numa quase noite de Lua Cheia em que viria acontecer um eclipse lunar, 16 Agosto 2008.

A compara玢o com a outra fotografia Oriente 2006 � a melhor prova de como cresceu. Gostei muito da luz e dos constrastes conseguidos. A particularidade da transpar阯cia do "comboio" torna a fotografia m醙ica.

Congratulations on your third anniversary. Excellent shot. I love the sharp geometry of the architecture contrasted with the smooth lines from the moving train. The blue hour sky makes a wonderful background for the illuminated lines of the station roof.

Hi Aires,
Congratulations on your 3rd TE-anniversary! A great milestone! And it is a beautiful and very successful photo to celebrate it with. You captured the speed of the moving train so well and also in such great light conditions. I also like a lot to see the impressive roof construction of the railway station as well as the colour contrast between the dark blue of the sky and the golden hues of the station. Thanks a lot for sharing!
Regards,
Lars

Hi Aires,
congratulations for 3 years on TE, hope to see many more of your excellent shots my friend! This one is just great, perfect handling of the exposure, 3sec. was just perfect to catch the movement of the train and you still have this transperancy effect, which allows us to look through the train. Wonderful colors, the blue hour is the icing on the cake!

Greetings from Canada

Ol� Aires,
for your third birthday my congratulations, I hope you have some guests to celebrate. But with a view at the amount of critiques a huge number. Dynamic view on the train and station and a clear proof that only speed is needed to make some things transparent like trains. :-) Simple dual colour, but very attractive by the construction.

Parab閚s, atrasados, pelo 3� anivers醨io, ... reparei que vem a� a 300� foto!! Relativamente a esta, gosto muito da "blue hour" e do movimento do comboio a passar.

Hi Aires,
Very nicely composed and nicely shot with good light control, nice colors, and details. The blue of the sky and the blur of the moving train look wonderful.
Best regards. Salvator.

Hello Aires,

Belated congratulations on this milestone. This image is excellent. The exposure was just perfect to catch the ghostly effect of the train. Good warm tones and angle to capture the details of this impressive station. Nice work Aires :-)

Hi Aires,

Hi Aires,
What a perfect picture with your third anniversary on TE. I really hope TE will stand for another three year and will improve their service, for that is rather disappointing after it got a new owner.
This kind of amazing pictures needs a good platform to be presented to the world.

Groet Rob

I am not so sure, but I think I have seen a simmilar shot in your gallery a long time ago.
This is the beauty of the long exposure, the smooth and silk shades of the running train.
I like the effects which need to be reproduced by me too.

TFS Aires,

Rajeev

Bonjour Aires,
Cette photo est d'une tr鑣 grande beaut� et met cette architecture unique bien en valeur. La bonne id閑 c'est le train qui traverse la gare, cela dynamise et embellit la composition.
Amicalement
Jacques
