Amongst The Holy People

This is one of the picture I have taken recently at the Kaona

monastery's church, dedicated to the St. Archangel Michael, handheld

with high ISO and natural lighting. The orthodox Kaona monastery dates

back to the XIV century and has some of the most beautiful fresco

paintings I've ever seen. This is a view on the wooden iconostasis

with the altar apse's Holy Mother composition. The richness in colors

and details of the ancient Byzantine fresco painting style, using the

plant pigments for their coloring, makes each visitor absolutely

delighted.

 

Thank you for your constructive comments and critiques.

Excellent exposure and composition Sreten. You have captured a complex scene very well; a delight in composition and colour: Very well done. Regards, Tony.

Congratulations on a well taken photo - the dynamic range is remarkable and the colors beautifully rendered. Did you use a soft fill-in flash?

The frescos remind me of something similar at the Kykkos Monastery in Cyprus.

Cheers, RickDB
