Erik,
Great composition...a little sad...like the decisive moment of dead....but a wonderful work. Congratulation!

Salut Erik.
Une image qui montre tout la détresse qui habite ces lieux.
Les couleurs sombres sont parfaitement adaptées à l’image.
Bonne soirée.

Hi Erik,

This is a very nice but simple composition the rose in the fg adds to this beautifully shot but sad scene. The low pov is excellent good colours and sharp details the framing is very good.

Regards
Jon

Even with a wide-angle lens you had to get down on your knees for this one. I like a photographer who lowers his perspective to make the shot.

The only thing I have to harp on is the cropped tombstone in the foreground. Aside from that this is a wonderful composition.

How do you do? Erik,

It is an articulated composition of the picture with a deep artistic sense. I think the originative composition and the unconventional placement of the object are very good, the low point of view and the wonderful depth is also good. I really love every piece of your well composed picture.

Many thank you for the sharing and greeting,
Eungbong

Buena foto, con una composicion y perspectiva escelente, con la flor de primer plano y el enfoque de abajo hacia arriba, mis felicitaciones.

Good picture, with an excellent composition and perspective, with the flower of foreground and bottom-up approach, my congratulations.

I was about to leap into a "what to do differently" and realised that I'd be overlooking the important thing - which is, I think this is a great shot. Subject, light, POV, DOF, post treatment - it is great work and deserves to be recognised as such.

Having said that, I would change a couple of things. One is the frame, I think it's too complex for the subject. The other is the headstone that "disappears" from the top of the frame. I would have either tried to include its cross within the frame, or clone out the base of the cross so that it ended just below the edge of the shot.

I like.

Hi Erik,
I like the low POV of this shot, really suits it. I also spotted the tombstone to the left disappearing out of the frame so I like what Rew has done with his workshop. The sky adds a nice effect with it's interesting cloud coverage. I think the tarnished rose and small patch of grass in the FG are key features of this scene. Everything looks sharp and well exposed. A fine job.

TFS,
Scott.

Potverdriedubbeltjes. Nu is Rew me alweer voor, ik zag deze gisteren al en had toen iets moeten schrijven, dan zou het nog origineel zijn :-§
Maar goed, de man heeft gelijk: het is een prachtfoto, op dat afgekapt kruis na. Wegclonen lijkt me de eenvoudigste optie, van positie veranderen niet mogelijk door o.a. de roos en de "beperking" van een groothoekconvertor.
De belichting is perfect, Erik. Het geheel is een beetje onderbelicht, en da's subliem voor onderwerpen zoals dit.
Mooi werk, nothing less. Chapeau en tfs

Jaaa kerel ... ik wou terug beginnen om m'n mening te spuien op TL
" Ok " indien je zo'n foto's post ... :-)
Dit zijn de foto's waarvan ik hou !
Op zich vind ik dit een prachtige foto, niet alleen technisch, maar zeker
het " buikgevoel " !
Prachtige compo !.

Geen " but " ? Neen maar ...
Misschien B/W ?
Indien je blijft kiezen voor kleur zou ik de intensiteit van de lucht aanpakken :
misschien wat meer contrast, zeker de zone rond 13 en 14u
Dit is maar om eventueel net dat stapje verder te gaan Erik !

Groetjes
Jan
