T&V XX

yes, I know, over sharpened, but I'm a dumb with PS, sorry.

I always find the right degree of sharpening a tough one, so don't sweat it too much.

 

I find this extremely sensual. It has both masculinity and femininity (whatever those are!) and gives me a sense of connection. You've captured it gracefully and done a great job of visualizing it.

...there is no over sharpening whatsoever, on the contrary, it should be sharp as it is. Nevertheless it is a great picture in any regard! By the way, if it was over sharpened after the framing there would have been something like white stroke, so called hello effect in my place! There is no hello effect neither in the picture (by the edges of the object) nor near the frames!

My word to you .. I saw this in thumbnail and I said Carlos .. now that is quite remarkable for just a few stones ..

 

 

and remarkable it is indeed .. what vision and what extaordinary control of aperture and contrast, but it's not so much the technicity that is impressing as the ability to see the evident, which in fact is not evident at all.

I think what Carlos is referring to, and what I notice, is the sort of shiny, pin-prick texture that is more a digital relic than what was actually the texture of the surface of this object. It does stand out a bit as unharmonious with the organic quality of the image, but the image still works quite effectively.

Well, I mean something like that Fred, but this little shining dots are really the surface texture, but excessively oversharpened, a phenomena observed after being uploaded (consequence of compression to jpeg and size reduction, or...? who knows ??).

 

So, yesterday was too late night and I was tired enough as to fix it. I must work on the original TIFF full size file, because when I apply the "noise reduction" on the small jpeg file the result is a complete disaster.

 

Anyway, I like it too, but in order to avoid confusions (slow down ego...) I should say that this building (a church indeed) is a sensual, evocative, warm, hospitable and mysterious shape done with extraordinary artistic sensibility, then, imho the real merit is for the designer-constructor. What a piece of art.

 

Thanks a lot to all of you for your time and comments

Very interesting and unique , Excellent work

Thanks, Carlos. I understand :)

Carlos, I came to this one several times. there is something very " humanistic" in the form, especially what looks like a part of a human leg ( man/woman leg). I think that the crop you have taken from the general building is the right one, even I'm curious and would like to see the full building. as it looks a very special architecture.

The light, texture , and B/W tones are completing the whole. beautifil work( no problem with sharpening on my monitor).

Superb architecture, all of them.

Cheers.
