sharp and crisp. a unique angle is presented here. i like all the pillars lining up from the front to the back. if possible i would to see the hallway in full, i.e. including the floor as well. great photo.

Salut Annie,
J'aime bien ce point de vue avec la courbe des colonnes avec toutes les textures et détails de cette architectures. Les couleurs sont excellentes. Très bien réussi.

Hello Annie
Wonderfull photo and great story. Infact I am very happy with your nice photo.. since I learned also something .. you can see it in the WS I made for you (and for myself ^__^ ) It has to do with the ''converger'' The problem we all have with photo's like this. Once I did read, there are special lenses used by architects etc. to correct this on the spot .. but oh my .. these lenses are expensive Anyway Annie..thanks for a fantastic and interesting photo. Bravo
John

la distortion ne me gêne pas... je suis bien plus attiré par les textures et les couleurs. J'aime bien ces répétitions de colonnes. Bel angle de vue aussi.

Great colours and POV.

Different!
Good rhytm, leading in the unknown.

Annie, a masterpiece, I love it, it has a surreal feel to it. I love the columns on top of each other.

Bonjour Annie, quel beau point de vue qui fait suite a l'autre photo que j'avais commentee.

J'aime beaucoup l'enfilade de colonnades et ta camera qui pointe vers le haut.

Belles couleurs au plafond qui contraste avec le gris et la texture des colonnes.

Tres joli!

Bonne journee, Yan :)

There are times Annie when we can throw any thoughts of vertical alignment away and this is one of them. Excellent POV, lovely soft muted colours and very well presented. TFS,
David
PS Many thanks for your comment on Foggy Rays

Hi Annie, Majestic! I'm amaze by the architecture of the columns. The light is so high. I wonder how they gonna light it up? Well captured!

Une perspective intéressante de cette superbe colonnade, Annie. J'aime bien ton point de vue qui nous montre vraiment l'immensité de ces colonnes. Belle lumière aussi qui les traverse. Bravo!

Pompéï, Rome good times
I have been there and remember it well. Great trip with my children
All the art civilization from the past.
No hint to the Dan Brown story?
If you have seen Rome it is a joy to read it
Good photo but I wanted it to change as well.
Looked in the WS and this is close to what I had done

i don't want to sound too repetitious, i like this shot for the symmetry and the use of light colours that potentially could have turned disastrous!

some of the areas within this photo have noise that creates a crispness level which makes it seem too surreal. the surrounding area next to the lamp, makes the ceiling look like it's glowing and i guess that should have been somewhat toned down!

overall a great shot!

A stunning, very Italianate, place and a stunning aspect. Much enjoyed, due to the content that you already know about ;)
Have you read 'Angels & Demons'? Bernini features quite a lot. When last in Rome and here, that book opened my eyes to a few things about the place.

I really like this photos for it's POV and the perspective effect. It gives me the sensation of wanting to know what's behind the end column. The light is nice, but there seems to be no distance between the end tunnel. It would give it more depth. Obviously you can only achieve this by trying to take the photo earlier or later in the day or by Photoshop.

I tied a workshop to depict what I mean.

Hello Annie
I got this POV too, however it wasn't so perfect in compo, light or graphic effect like this one of yours. This is realy a beautiful and luminous photo with excelent sharpness and colours and a powerful composition.
Have a great we
