[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
This is the standard lamppost chosen by the neighbouring municipality of Melhus, to light up the four graveyards in the area.

Well, I guess it will work for other purposes too, but that’s where I photographed it…

WORKSHOP:

I include an image here, showing the light pole in its rightful location! You’ll find it if you look closely to the left hand side…

So simple and yet with such power.
without your notes there are many different interpretations possible of this image simply because the lamp is not lit. -- Fabulous!

Hello, Pablo,
A minimalistic view but interesting, though.The lampost looks like a fruit ready to fall upon ripening.

hi Pablo,

The starkness of the black is great against the sky .. the fact it is unlit is evocative ..especially with the note.

take care,

John

Hi Pablo. We will all end up under one of these one day so we might as well get used to it! Good clarity against tough sky. Miss the usual blue backdrop in your photos. TFS. Murray.

Not a bad choise I would say - would the Kirkegard also make an interesting picture? Or would that be an invasion of privacy.
When abroad we regularly see graveyards and sometimes we go and have a look - you can learn a lot from a countries culture by looking.
TFS this strong impression.

Hi Pablo,

Hello Pablo
May I add to your note: ..........and the pigeons will appreciate too!
Fine location in frame and modest coloration suits the gloomy mood of a graveyard.
Best regards.

Hello Pablo,

You have chosen an innovative motif for this post having a beautiful perspective. Enlightening the after life is the best for the dears departed. Simple but a wonderful image which is expressive. Well done my friend.

Thanks for sharing this image.

Hi Pablo,
Are they afraid that the deads will trip walking around without light ...lolll
Excellent capture and POV on the blue sky. Well done. TFS

Hi Pablo,

Simple object, but you did great persenting it with great detail and I like the composition . . Interesting picture . . .

Tfs,
Tjutjut

Many thanks for your kind words on "Fallow deer".

Hi Pablo,
A bit of a sinister title for a lightpost. But reading your note explains a lot. Looks like the ghost need some light in the dark as well. I like the simple but strong composition and he muted colors of the sky. They all fit the title and composition.
TFS,
Niek

Something different from you Pablo. Interesting semi silhouette and good colours. It is very much like our surviellance camera/lights. TFS,

Hello Pablo,
The title caught my attention, and then I noticed the little goblin hiding inside the glass of the light . . . no one else seemed to have noticed it, or I need my eyes to be checked.
Thanks for sharing,

Hi Pablo, well taken lamp post. I always like them, they are very decorative.

I also love the image in your ws. Very well captured. Nice colours and light.

Well done! Yan :)
ps: many thx for the crit on "Notre-Dame des Victoires Church" :)

Interesting minimalist compo, I like the geometry and the almost b&w tones. The whole scene has some menacing air....

TFS,

Andreea

Hi Pablo, simple and beautiful composition, great silhouette of lamp, very well done, ciao Silvio

Hi Pablo!
This time you are minimalistic. But your minimalistic capture is like a disguised door to the past - I mean the graveyard. I'm still in doubt which one I'd prefer as main and which one as ws...
Greetings and thanks for your regular visits!

Hello very impressive like the clarity of the glass good view and angle tfs cheers Shimon

Sometime you surprise me a lot! You have a nice pole But i have to admit the workshop seem to have so much more interest (for me) then the principal subject. I hope you explore the grave too. They have surely nice details!
You show it under a good angle.
I see a good potential for a flying saucer trick too ;)

Pablo

gran ideaoriginal te felicito

Nat

Hi dear Pablo;This lamp as if face,good idea,good shot....
Habema.

Looks pretty cluttered, th ecity did not want the graveyard residents to trip in the night and hurt themselves...... kidding!

Hello Pablo. True trek Lenser with stunning lens work. I am lost for words here due to the simplicity and yet so much impact of this shot. Best regards. Jusni
