TECHNICAL PERFECTION ...!!!

The successful capture of her movement Dimitri and the perfect light treatment are among the main assets of your image. It is a professional internal shot indeed. ………………..PS : Many thanks for your kind comment about my POW photo.

The dancing child and beautiful architecture are wonderfully captured. Good lighting, great colors and clarity. The wire does not ruin your fine image in my mind. Regards, ~~~~~~~~~~Linda

 

 

Thanks.

You observed in your original posting that you didn't care for the line across the window arch. That didn't bother me, as it's quite common in these old buildings, but the tilt is a little uncomfortable, particularly with weighty masonry. I'm glad to see you corrected it and improved the blacks somewhat. Here's a version without the line:

Charles thank you very much indeed for taking the time to not only making a comment but also to do the work that you did. Your version is excellent (croppinng a little on the right makes an improvement too) and this sort of rare communication justifies the existence of PN. I appreciate it and this is the language we should all be talking!.

The title is right,...for a wonderful capture!...Ciaomau!

I like this image , the lighting, composition and the moment is superbly taken, thank you for sharing it and wishing you all of the best my friend.

A wonderful capture which reflects joy of a little girl.. well done.. congrats.. OB

brilliant capture, congrats and regards.

Very very good composition and light. I prefer the original. compliments -koushik

Well Ray I suppose it depends on the calibration of the monitor. I know that what I see on the screen I print. A little crop on the right certainly helps and the abcsence of the line is a fine job but looking at it again

perhaps a tighter crop could be another version. Another one for the drawing board..-:)

A brilliant image and I prefer the revised version without the line. I think you used fill flash and if that is the case, I think it was an excellent choice. With her hands extended to the rear, it almost looks like an angel's wing (*_*). I also find the the little patch of blue on the ground works nicely with the orange in the image. Well done and congrats.

Hi Toni, yes I did use a litle fill in flash and during pp I also had the idea of a little angel I wanted her to appear a little bit unreal in this 1500 year old building. The arch competes with the girl though and is difficult to decide which is the main subject especially when looking at a monitor and you are too close to it. You know I am very glad you are looking at technical details which are all important to an image. I appreciate your input Toni.

Dimitris, the little girl and the arch don't compete; they complement. The contrast is antiquity versus modernism, youth versus age, motion versus stasis, and the parallel is the child's concentration on her play and religious states of mind, such as rapture. The slight tilt generated by your off-axis perspective suggests what is happening in the child's internal world. She seems to have become a Sufi at a very early age. ;-)

that is very hard condition to take,but you have made it very well here...congrats. regards.
