King Frederick Church Photo

Photographer’s Note

One of the interesting area in Copenhagen is the Amalienborg Square. From the square"s colonnade, you can observe the residence of the Queen of Denmark. They call it the Amalienborg Palace. It has 4 identical structures with fanciful curved spatial forms and elaborate ornamentation. Only one is open for viewing by the public. You may visit the King Frederick Church (the locals call it ?Marmorkirke?), walk towards the bay water or walk towards Fredercksholms Kanal and street where all the restaurants seem to be. It is a very nice place to visit on summer.

Nice picture, Andre. But you posted it wrong. This is Copenhagen, the capitol of Denmark, NOT of Norway;)

Hi Andre!
Was there a couple of weeks ago, also very nice in the winter :)
Took a pic of this place also, check it out here if interested.

Those green tones of the dome, remember them very well. The composition is nice here, but the foreground needs something to fill it, a bit empty just like that. So, my suggestion for it is to crop the bottom till the people standing on the right.

regards,
anton

Nice point of view and perspective. This has the feel of those drawings of ideal Renaissance cities from that time period. The perspective leads us right to the dome which dominates the scene way back there. It really seems huge in its setting which is what makes this really impressive. The quality perhaps could be worked on. Did you use fill flash in photoshop on this. It seems a little washed out. I do like the uniformity of the lighting, though, adding to that drawing like feel, especially with these flat facades on the right. Well seen.
