Absolutly marvellous picture ! The non-film gives all details with great precision and the frame is perfect. (sorry for my bad english : I'm french)

Thanks Lou, but it's not 'non-film' - I don't know how that got there. I've tried to change this in 'Fuji-Sensia', but this is just added to it, instead of replacing it. Actually it's a colorslide scanned with a Minolta scanner

I would like it even better if the light in the foreground wasn't so bright, but the exposure of the interior is great, and I love the contrast of light and dark, together with the shadows from the columns.

I'm viewing this on my laptop and the ceiling looks pitch black. I hope that's what it looks like in the actual photo too. That makes it look like you're looking into a box. As if these are just windows into another world from a dark empty place. Very very nice!

Theo, you have some really original and beautiful photo's in your folders. This is one of them. The exposure has been very good on this one.

Wow, it took me a very long time to figure out this one!! I think I'm right in what I deducted.. This is a hallway and that is natural light in a courtyard. Maybe some figured it out right away, but not me! It looks like an independent structure with lighting inside. It wasn't until I really examined the dark patterns above that I realized it is a ceiling and thus.. a hallway. Regardless.. Very wonderful result.

I really like the idea and composition. The exposure of shadows is just fine, but it really is a shame that the highlights in the foreground are blown out. Are you sure there is no detail in the film? In that case adjusting the scanning parameters might give you a better picture. Anyway, this is realy nice

This stunning picture, fantastically exposed and composed, is not a hallway. It's the second floor of a Monastery's Cloister spectacularly shot taken advantage of natural light.

Theo is a great photographer who, apart from his technical skills, has anothet fundamental skill for photographers: patience for the right moment (no toursts and the approppriate light)

Excellent work on the exposure and composition here, Theo. I have been there, too, and took this shot. But I did not handle the exposure so well as you did. Best wishes. Peter
