roofs of milano - from the duomo

Bella composizione mi piace lo schiacciamento dei piani.

Gianluigi

I like it .... but I would crop it to make the church a symmetric frame.

thanks, gianluigi and Francesco. you see, francesco, i have many versions, the one you ask and also differents point of wiew. i add you an other one, i am not sure wich is better. ciao, thanks

Hello Andrea, this is again a strong shot of your kind. I did not see the author before and thought Andrea? and yes...

Also your second post on that - perfect how you got the lamp and the man and their shadows.

The lit lamp in the dark is the focus for my eyes..

Ciao Axel

Oh wow! Amazing composition! Atmosphere is fantastic...

i prefer the elaborate shadows of the spires which, together with the lighted lamp, symmetrically frame the glorious pinnacles; also better i think to omit altogether the larger spire from the composition if we cannot see the Madonnina atop it. so many ways to compose this awesome building, Andrea. keep shuttering... ;-} dp

Interesting composition! And the interesting angles and lines!

Andrea, by chance I found this: http://www.umbertoverdoliva.it/

You may know him, if not... reminds me a lot to your shots.

Ciao Axel

al solito un ottimo taglio e un ottimo BN ! (BN sta anche per Buon Natale !!!)

thanks everybody, i'm proud of this photo becouse i soffers a lot of vertigo (if my english is not correct, i mean thay if i am near a vertical dimension, i feel bad....)

Ah...The photos from Milano -- and it does look cold indeed. A very nice perspective, and definitely not for a vertigo prone person;-) These are two very nice captures of the same perspective. I personally prefer your " B " version(without the spires), because of its cleaner lined composition and the nice shadows at the bottom. The lantern is ideally positioned. (one tiny nitpick -- it's a pity that the people on the right aren't a little bit more clearly depicted..) Greetings from a (very) snowy & cold France, M

Very strong and original image again from you, Andrea! I like the use of architectural details for this scene. Great control of light and excellent tonality and contrast despite difficult light conditions. Version B is very good too, just perhaps bright area is too bright, but composition is better in my opinion.

Andrea, admirable perspective and tonal contrast.

Very nice capture,Andrea!

Best regards(Bobby).
