Different Approaches to Antiquity (Pantheon - Rome)

nice color and scene,regards.

 

 

I can't explain my deep feelings about this photo in English. just let you know that I love it so much. it's like a collage

I agree with Hossein about the collage aspect. The picture plane is divided in so many interesting ways: modern/ancient; animate/inanimate; colored /monochrome; shadowed and brightly illuminated - it's like a surreal stage set; it has the feeling of divergent elements carefully arranged for maximum visual effect. This ability to juxtapose seemingly unrelated elements to create a visually stimulating and thought-provoking picture is a rare talent and something you seem to do better than any other photographer I have seen on photo.net.

Sei proprio bravo Giuseppe!un'altra foto che racconta,come ormai ci hai abituato a vedere,e questa volta anche a colori(scelta piu' giusta a mio giudizio),sono pienamente daccordo con chi mi ha preceduto...salutoni...

For me this one is great because of the wall...geometry is great... It's a little bit ironic to sit near the historic monument, just reading a book... Great photo! Regards!

Everything works really well in this shot,very appealing image.

Thank you for your comments, critiques and suggestions, G.

Use of light, FOM, the effect of the colors... Very nice work.

Very intresting compo and beautiful light! Excellent street photo! regards ( janis

I really like the contrast of warm & cold colors in this photo, the warm colors in back&the colds in front ,its different & inspiring......Banafsheh

this photo is one of my favourites. I am studying Rome and its people, and in this particular occasion I explore another "difference". Differences are - imho - one of the most powerful drives in this world. I'd like to quote Ferdinand de Saussure as far as the timing of the shot is considered (in this work and the one called "Tourist Hat and Landing Pigeon"): [during a gane of chess] Anyone who has followed the whole game has not the least advantage over a passer-by who happens to look at the game at that particular moment and the value of each piece on the board depends on its relative position and not on the initial assigned importance. Thank you again for these beautiful comments, Giuseppe

Grande, semplicemente grande!...Ciaomau!
