A very intriguing image, magnificent treatment of light, and the ghostly figure of the child against a glimpse of a graveyard beyond. Best regards.

Perfect story and very good BW. Best regards! Joze, Slovenija

Hi Miroslav,

Thanks for sharing. I think this is a great shot. The exposure is spot-on and i'm assuming was quite difficult to achieve. It would have been so easy to make this symmetrical by placing the main door totally mid-image and I'm glad you didn't; offsetting it just slightly to the left and then showing the window and light on the wall on the far right is excellent. I love the darkness of the foreground and the way you've emphasized the floor, giving insight into the architectural space. Having people in architectural images is always a tricky proposition and you've made some excellent decisions here. I love that the little boy/girl is in the light, but only wish you had waited for him/her to take a half step more so that they are framed in the door...then again i could be wrong. The only other minor thing i would consider is cropping in just a bit on the left side; just up to covering the vertical seam in the wall.

Overall, when i look at this image, i am transported to the space and can imagine the sounds and feel the atmosphere. There are many layers of story here and it compels the viewer to study it. This is an awesome image.
