Wan Xiang International Plaza
Shanghai
We were commissioned by the
architect Christoph Ingenhoven to photograph one of his projects, the
Shimao International Plaza, a 52-storey, 318.88-metre building in the
centre of Shanghai on Nanjing Road. It is one of the tallest buildings
in the world.
After
arriving we look as usual for suitable perspectives and vantage points
to best present the building in question. High-quality lenses with a
large image circle are an essential requirement if we are to obtain
interesting and unusual views of the building.
We work exclusively with
Schneider XL
lenses and like using extreme wide
angles to create the perspective we have chosen. This is the only way
to show the building in its entirety from close up. Especially – as in
this case – when you are photographing a very tall building, wide angle
lenses with a large image circle are extremely important.
Shimao International Plaza, Shanghai
The
Shimao International Plaza stands right in the centre of Shanghai,
surrounded by small, lively streets and traditional architecture.
Vantage points that provide good perspectives are hard to find and
often make great demands of the photographer and the equipment. With
Schneider lenses it is possible to react appropriately to the situation
in question and achieve optimal results.
