Untitled

This is quite a shot because it seems to highlight ephemeral reality - here, there, gone - against a background of that which endures, in this case symbolized by the cathedral interior. The transitory, the relatively stable, the timeless - that's the essence of the picture for me. The muted colors work well together and put the emphasis where it belongs, on the rolling, sea of people flowing through the abiding, silent columns.

The surroundings seem grand and staid, a perfect stage for your statement. I like that you've captured just a few slices of human experience as something more permanent: the connection of the couple, the affection of parents. When all is said and done, the busyness and frenetic energy of life doesn't mean much and evaporates. What remains are those connections and affections.

Excellent shot with slow shutter speed technique. 7/7

Well done!

lovely work Alex!

Too much Photoshop, sorry. This ain't street photography,

it's not photoshopped, but I'll take that as a compliment!

regarding street photography or not, well I suppose its just a question of opinion.

 

thanks everybody for your comments!

Very nice.

Excellent! You used the motion of people, perfectly.

It looks great Alex. You got the exposure spot on. I think the two more static people in the fg is a nice touch.

 

Gary.

Ces't Formidable.!
