Wow, c'est presqu'un effet surreel! On dirait une scene d'un reve, surtout avec la perspective du chateau. La personne a la droite donne un gout particulier a la photo.. une ame perdue!
-
Love the textures that are emphasized by the subtle lighting.. looking forward to seeing more of your work! ... and welcome! :-) -
Wow Jim, I love the moody feel of this image! Well done!!
-
LOL! Fabulous. -
Wow, Jacques... c'est interessant ton affaire! Et puis bien sur que je ne me fache pas, voyons! :-) OK, will write in english so everybody understands. You make a good point about the minimalism. Indeed, that is precisely what I like about this photo. I suppose there are different ways to look at it. Ken, the only thing I would change about your version is to crop a bit more tightly so that the railings on the left aren't left "hanging" - seems too unfinished. Jacques, I do like your crop although the image is rendered more into an abstract that way - although it does work! How about this as a compromise? (See attached version) Boy, I never thought this image would create such debate - I like this! :-)Sam, sounds like you would've wanted more contrast. I kind of like it this way - but it's a matter of taste ultimately.
P.S. Jacques, j'attends avec patience la photo du chien ;-) Tu es si gentil de ne pas m'avoir oublie!

Yes, more experimenting! I cropped the candle because the emphasis was more on the seashells.. thanks for stopping by! :) -
Such a nice reflection Guido! Well done!! I would perhaps crop a little more off the top (just enough to not see the buildings in each corner) to put more emphasis on the reflections and simplify the number of things the eye can look at.
-
I keep coming back to this image. I agree all the droplets should be in sharp focus. The reflections made me laugh. Well done! -
Tony, thank you! Martin, I'll experiment with that idea.. thanks :) Richard, yes... I mentioned in the technical details that the stripes were due to jpg compression. Can't get around it unless I drastically reduce the size of the image.
-
Michele, I agree with you too. I also like the arches, too bad about the cars.
-
Thanks to Ken for his idea of converting this to B&W. Please let me
know what you think!
-
Sam & Linda - thank you! You have helped me to see even more into this photograph. It's great having all these extra pair of eyes :-) -
You were right.. it's by far the cleanest version of them all - what I like is how it emphasizes the architecture and so the eye is not detracted to looking at other stuff. Thank you again.. really!
-
Not taken personally at all, I welcome well-meant critiques and suggestions for improvement! Thank you - and I have listened to both you and Ken -> Please see B&W version here :-) -
LOL... OK Ken, I hear you :))
..and thank you for the suggestion. This is why we need a 2nd pair of eyes! ;-)
-
I remember being there and people were lining up with their cameras to each have a shot of this! LOL (I got one too) It's really quite something to see this in real life - the photo doesn't quite do it justice although you've done a great job. I especially like the hues in your version.
-
Terrific lines and good angle. I like the contrast between the ochre yellow and the violet sky. Nice work as usual.
-
Excellent colors and textures! Composition is great too. Quite lovely Angel :) -
This is my favorite of the 3. I especially like the gold hands and the way you've set up the lighting to highlight them. This works. The only part that prevents this from being perfect to my eyes is the section of leaves between her hands. The combination of blur, lighting and many leaves is a bit busy to me. That's really the only nit and I realize it's a personal preference. The image almost has a Christmas feel to it for me perhaps because of the gold. Planning on any angel shots for Christmas? ;-) -
Belles lumieres de Noel! La seule chose qui m'embete un peu c'est le drapeau rouge a droite.. As-tu essaye de prendre celle-ci avec la couronne en plein milieu? Simplement par curiosite..
-
UNbelievable!!! This is absolutely brilliant and extremely well done. I'm really impressed with your attention to detail!! My only question would be why choose apples/oranges in the fruit bowl instead of bananas? Just curious.. The abacus is a nice touch...lol
This is a 7/7 without question! Congratulations.

Oh, this one I like too.. colors are great. I want to keep moving the bottle slightly to the right however so that the shadow delineation on the wall falls smack in the center down the bottle and close the gap a little between the bottle and its shadow. Personal taste I guess.. -
Lovely bright colors and I like the overall composition except for the bottom portion which seems a little busy to my eye (especially all those cars) so I took the liberty of offering a slightly different cropped alternative. Hope you don't mind! Let me know what you think?
-
Ken.. am I hearing you right? OK... I tried it. It's not bad actually..a different feel for sure. I think both versions have their merits. What do you think?
