Smoke - 01

Smoke - 01Last weekend I was at the natural museum of Stübing. I've often been there with my parents when I was a child but it has been a many years since my last visit. So my parents and my brother with family gathered once again to walk through that wonderful little village. Stübing is a collection of old farmhouses from centuries ago that have been moved from there original location to this place and have been reassembled. Walking along the path there is like finding yourself way back in the past.Here you can see a "Rauchkuchl" of one of the old farmhouses. It's the kitchen and there was a fire lit in the fireplace to roast some potatoes for the visitors. The chimney wsn't working properly and there was smoke every. It wasn't easy to stay in there for several minutes. While setting up my tripod tears ran down my cheek - it wasn't easy. I took several shots of the light falling through the windows. Three of them were particularly nice and I want to share them with you. Whenever you are in Styria/Austria, go and visit that place.FULL VIEW - WHAT ELSE ...--------------------------------------------------------------------------------Location: StübingDate: September 30th, 2007Light Conditions: Sunny--------------------------------------------------------------------------------Camera: Canon EOS 5DLens: Canon EF 17-40mm f/4L USMFocal Length: 25 mmFlash: --Flash Mode: --Shutter Speed: 3.2 secAperture: 11.0ISO: 100Panorama: --Tonemapping: --Tripod: Manfrotto 055 PROBTripod Head: Benro KB-1 Ball HeadFilters:- Hoya Pro1 Digital Circular Polarizer Slim--------------------------------------------------------------------------------This description was created by a little tool called PhotoInfo.

The place is called "St�bing". It's a little artificial village that shows just old farmhouses. It's located near Graz in Styria/Austria/Europe.

I love this photo. Composition and color are wonderful and eye-catching. What I love is the juxtaposition of these ancient worn wood floors with the sharp immediate sunlight: we get to peak in at the ancient while the modern world goes on sharply outside.

I'm new here and was casually viewing several pages of new photos; this one stopped me and inspired me to write. Thanks.

Hi,

 

I like your composition, but the blueness of the light seems unnatural. Did it appear like that?

The light might not have been that blue - I can't remember. One thing that happens here is that the light inside is very warm. Everything in there is made from wood and so all the reflected light is quite yellow. Compared to that, the daylight coming from the outside definitely feels very cold.

I kept the light that blue to enhance the warm/cold color contrast a little. Thanks for mentioning it.
