Hi...... This is a fragment of a monument in the Havana necropolis,(graveyard).It is was commemorated for the firemen who fell in a great fire in that city in 1890. The photo was taken out of a bus window with lots of glare and reflection so it called for PP work...... this is a composite..........Thanks for peeking in Roman:0)

P.S. I thought I might add the original in the workshop for anyone who is interested ...

Very interesting story and a dramatic image---the sky is so forebidding and fits the stone statue well---well seen and well worked on----Lynne

hi roman, your a wizard with this PP work, this is a great pic to look at, this would be the dramatic light and skies i was looking for with my lighthouse pics i have posted previously-maybe i should have cheated and done something like this! but i guess i dont really know how to do this though (lol!), great job and nice work!

How strange this looks Roman, so not what you expect to see in Cuba of all places, more in Italy or Greece - the PP work works great in combination with this huge statue - very attractive job - strange atmosphere!

You rescued it well with P-Shop! Looks grecian or roman ! The statue looks like he is high in the heavenly skies talking to all his people below.
nice colour and lighting! Look forward to more Cuba.

Hi Roman,
Good work that we would say a scene of an old movie :) I like the colors behind which gives a dramatic side to the photograph. Excellent job my friend with a perfect point of view.

Hi Roman,I prefer this one rather than the original,being that it is a commemoration for fallen firemen your choice of sky is more than perfect & the warm filter tops it off.Great detail & sharpness from inside a bus & taken through its window.

Ron

just like the ancient times. =) lovely mood Roman. looks really grand. very good PP work.
base idea is super!

Hello Roman

That wonderful vision
I adore these sculptures, and reading your text, for it being a shot of a bus window, it is very well!
The colors, details and the dramatic clouds in this sky,
it is fantastic!
Congratulations for the beautiful work!

Hello Romy,
A good composite - the monument looks more dramatic with the sunset in the background. Great idea and a captivating composition.
Well done, congrats!
