Thank you if you would spend a little time to watch this photo and leave me a

sincere comment or a critique.

Nice composition with all those warm tones and that light so typical during the summers in the Po river valley. The spyglass-effect (the portal in the background in relation to that in foreground) works very well. I'm doubtful on the deep black that connects the two portals. I suppose you wanted it but I wonder if a more textured connection would work even better.

Compliments for the honest simplicity of this picture

Mauro, the black, detailess area between the two portals is due to Velvia's narrow dynamic range, but, as you guessed, I wanted to get this effect so I didn't take two exposures to blend in post processing... I wanted a very natural-look image and that black area doesn't give the viewer any clues to estimate the distance between the two portals: I liked this uncertainty...

Alberto.

Ciao Alberto. Trovo l'immagine raffinata sia nella ricerca della giusta luce che nella composizione. Hai incorniciato in modo elegante l'erosione del tempo e dell'abbandono.

Bravo
