Dear Greg,

Your constructive critique is certainly appreciated. You drew my attention to some elements of the image I hadn't thought of as significant, and yet it turns out they can be distracting! It happens all too often that the author of a photo doesn't (or is unable to) play the role of an unbiased assessor of his/her own work. The image above is clearly the case of such visual impression omissions committed by the author before publishing the photo ;)

Thanks again and regards

Tomasz

Shot in the gardens of the University of Warsaw Library.

Analog photography: Rollei RPX 100 developed in home-made FX-37.

Thank you for viewing the image, all comments appreciated.

Thank you very much, gentlemen, for your kind words, very rewarding and encouraging.

Best regards,

Tomasz

Ditto what previous critique Authors wrote... I love such b&w rendering of the world. A true masterpiece in monochrome. I've always had problems converting my digital images to b&w, that's why I shoot on film whenever I want good black and white picture. 

Congrats and regards,

Tomasz

Analog photography. 35 mm Ilford Pan100 cropped to make a square.

Please view the larger image. All comments welcome and appreciated.

Yes, it must have been a beautiful morning, and your picture certainly does justice to the extraordinary view. A wonderful image, sheer delight to look at...

Congrats and regards,

Tomasz

Tony, Andres - thank you very much for your kind comments. I had really good light in the scene captured, and both highlights and shadows were bound to fit in the film's useful dynamic scale. 

35mm Kodak TX400 in action.

All comments / critiques welcome.

Plenty of detail in both highlights and shadows. That's what I can see, at least...

Thank you for sharing. Regards,

Tomasz

What an elegant representative of the feline family!... And your photo does justice to its natural beauty.

Tomasz

Nowadays I shoot mostly in b&w, but still appreciate good colour work. This photo is a perfect example...

Pozdrawiam serdecznie,

Pictures of the aurora borealis have always impressed me. This one is no exception...

B&W image of superb quality. I love the lavish shades of grey.

Congrats and regards,

Tomasz

The sky was just crazy!...  ;) But what the nature offers is one thing, and what the photographer can do with it to create a fabulous image is another.  The photo above is a proof.

Congrats and regards,

Tomasz

Lovely!... A really beautiful image, doing justice to both the nature's colours and human work. The bridge with its reflection forms an almost perfect circle.

Great job. Congrats and regards,

Tomasz

Great composition, fine b&w work.

Congrats and regards,

Tomasz

Your photo conveys the mood very nicely; you can almost feel the cold.

Well done.

Regards, Tomasz

In my very humble opinion, the subject would gain the expression you're after when lit by direct sunlight revealing its texture and all the 3D-like features. Any chance you can return to that location at a different time of the day? Sure enough, a more suitable film and development can help increase the overall contrast of the scene, but the statue sunlit would be a delight to view.

Just my 2c...

Regards, Tomasz

Fantastic tonal range. As b&w is my favourite, I truly enjoy viewing this picture.

Regards,

Tomasz

It certainly does look cool and is well worth sharing. I personally love this kind of photography.

Krzyztopor Castle ruins at Ujazd, Poland. Analog photography.

Thank you very much for your time taken to view and (hopefully)

comment on the picture.

Hello,

Being a great analog photography fan myself, I really like what you're doing... For me it's like reviving old sentiments. Many years ago I had a FED, too, besides, a couple of Zeniths, a Zorki, a 35 mm and 5 1/4 sq. Kiev, and so on... ;)

The middle gray tones are particularly nicely reproduced in this photo.

Regards,

Tomasz

Nice! A solitary tree plus great sky in a beautifully composed photo.

Congrats and regards,

Tomasz
