[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
The picture taken in an Ohrid church. I liked the unusual atmosphere of this scene, with three spotlights in the upper gallery.
I know that it's not sharp, but the light was extremely low (and plenty of backlighting that I tried to work on). More sharpening in my opinion spoiled the textures of the painted walls.
PP: lots of work with the light to enhance the mood, (darkened the borders and illuminated the centre), framed, resized.

**I decided to change the title of this image, the previous one being "Still waiting for Godot", inspired by the novel of Samuel Beckett, "Waiting for Godot", Godot being a person everyone is waiting for and who never appears: Godot ----> God
Im sorry for not explaining it before, hope this pic will now make more sense.***

I think you've done everything right in this picture. I would get rid of the wide black frame. There is enough interesting stuff going on in the picture, that I'd rather look at the picture than the frame. 8)

I like the atmosphere created by the colours and textures in this Marija. It's very appealing - congrats.

Wow, this is in church? Looks like set in a theatre. Nice mood on the photo, frame is a bit too heavy

I do not know who Godot might be but this is an intresting photo. And thanks also Maria for your nice
E-card ! Bye my friend..Johm

Strange indeed Marija...but you can see a small part of the beauty of the old chur. Very well captured again and I like the soft colours you choose. I made sometimes the mistake to use to bright colours...my compliments.

I like this picture very much,Marija! This is innovative,original and creative! Lovely black frame that enhances the shrpness of the central image! For me it is a nice abstract in the sense that people wonder what it is exactly! Nice shot! Michel

Hi Marija,
Very nice work. I really like what you've done with the pp. From the texture of the walls, and the way the light falls on it, I thought you had taken a picture of a painting. It's got some dark, but, nice and mysterious moods to it.
Well done.
Richard

Excellent work under extreme conditions Marija. Great PP work to enhance what must have been a lovely original. TFS
