Javarzay castle (2)

Another view of this castle (see previous). I have made a black &

white version from the colour original and turned it in this golden

tone. Thank you for your ratings and comments.

Perfect colors!

Very nice color tones and very good exposure.

Henri, I like the perspective and tonal quality, but my favorite is the color version of this castle.

J'aime beaucoup les tonalit鳠que vous avez donné au chateau. C'est passionant de voir a quel point ils sont differents vos chateauforts et les notres!

I believe that the tonality has been a success. Regards.

Ooooh! I love this, Henri! It's really what I loved so much about my wanderings in France back in 2005. The castles are gorgeous. And this one is no exception. Stuff that fairy tales are made of! Great treatment to this shot, too. Nice sky and wonderful perspective. I love it!!

I like the light...the gold treatment is nicely done...I enjoy the vision through the arch with the forest and a piece of sky...congrats.

Beautiful work, Henri. Great lightings and colors. Best regards.

I like the stark black and gold tones here which go with the uncompromising straight-on view.

Thank you all for your ratings and kind comments. I have to correct a mistake : the treatment was not from the black & white version but from the colour version (you can see a bit of green in the garden through the arch).

It's a very good treatment, give the idea of a very ancient building (as it is!)

 

Did you never try to correct the perspectve in postprocessing? the building with ultrawideangles seem allways to fall backward.

Thank you Fabio. Yes, I have think to correct the perspective, but I have think that it could be better to keep the sensation of (outburst ?... run ?...) toward the sky that gives the true perspective. Furthermore, the correction would not be perfect because the central roof would be hiden by the window, which is normal from this low view point but not from a central view point which would be induced by the frontal perspective. I hope you understand what I mean. Regards, Henri

You're right about the roof, probably it would became innatural.

 

Thanks for sharing your pictures and your toughts about them. Fabio

Beautifully toned composition. Regards Anthony

Magnificent photo , well done Henry
