The Aqueduct of Shadows Photo

Photographer’s Note

Second view of the series introducing the "Aqueduc de la Vanne" near Pont-sur-Yonne.
I tried to capture the aqueduct and shadow in the frame, but it was not easy. The ideal spot would have been in the air (from a hot air ballon for example).
NB : the focus isn't perfect cause i shoot with a my broken 28-105mm.

Excellente composition Frédéric, bonne maitrise de lumières et de composition géométrique.
L'incurvation du champ permet à l'ombre projettée de dessiner une jolie courbe.
La lumière latérale donne une bonne profondeur qui donne un bel effet 3D.
Dommage pour l'objectif cassé, mais le léger flou n'est pas dérangeant.

Superb picture. I like more of this second perspective. The levels and contrast are perfect. Congratulations.

Bonsoir Frederic;
Belle lumiere à nouveau, avec un bon rendu des contrastes.
Les lignes dessinées donnent un aspect graphique à la composition.
Bien vu.

Frederic,
Fantastic colours and effects from the shadows, light and different shapes. I'm amazed - how do you even get the clouds to line up so beautifully for you?
Regards,
MvS

Love the hard contrast and the full saturation here, Frederic. It provides this excellent graphic picture with a very decisive punch. Great job!

Even with broken lens this shot is excellent. I like the shadows on the green fields. Great shot.

This picture show a perfect little "world". The composition with the building, the shadow, the hills and the sky are perfect. The colours are fantastic. With one word: "excellent". It goes to my favourits.

Il y a de très belles géométries dans cette photo, entre lignes droites et courbes... La luminosité est également sublime, mais ce qui est le plus fort c'est cette parfaite diagonale entre le viaduc et son ombre.

Ta galerie est vraiment très intéressante. Il y a d'excellentes photos. Bravo Fred !

Stunning Frederic! The repeating arches with their long shadows falling on lushly green fields beneath a dramatic sky... who could ask for more? Beautifully composed and presented. I'm happy to come across your work once again. You were among the small group of members when I first arrived, who delighted me with their work. You still do. Keep them coming!
