Stairway To Heaven Photo

Photographer’s Note

This is, again, a shot from the marsh land of Denmark. There is really isn't much to write... but see my remarks on previous photos.

This is a view of one of the many floodgates, protecting the marsh land from the north sea.

PP: Crop, USM, Levels and contrats.

Very graphical shot. The circular polarizer effects are efficient in the sky : white clouds on deep blue.
Nicely composed.

Simplified design as the clouds seem to drift across... to soon pass in front of your staircase. Powerfull photo, well done.

Very beautiful geometrical aspect of the foreground with an astonishing cloudy background. Colours are beautiful and the overall aspect is amazing by its simplicity and is symetry. Very well done !

Clean and simple composition, very nice and airy. Centering the staircase exactly was a good choice. The grass is a bit yellowish, a little Colour Balance tweaking could fix that.

Hi Jorn, and apologies been delay in looking at your submissions, but I have been on home leave back in the UK.

Top imaging, and a well presented photograph. The lines do it for me here. The steps disappearin upwards, bisected by a rail, and the bandings of the sky, grass and stonework compliment a well composed work.

Congratulations to you!

Regards,

Vic

Too bad I never took the time to comment on this one :-)

Very well spotted Jorn - I like that "smooking" staircase and I try to image the landscape upstairs - haven't been there for years - Nice work indeed.

Lovely geometrical composition with nice colors. I like the way you've captured two different cloud formations in the same picture and that the cloud on the left is so low. Nice work!

This is a nice picture in the line of the previous one I had the luck to comment in your portfolio. Your skies have a special light I would like to catch, too. Congratulations ..

Greetings Jorn,
Stariway to heaven indeed. Beautiful sky and greens.
I was thinking the horizon neednnt be dead center cuttin the pic in half. But I think this is an exception where one has to see the Stairs and the beautiful sky above.
Nice picture.TFS- Vikram
