200th, What lies beyond? Photo

Photographer’s Note

For my 200th post, something different.

One of my favourite photo's is "The Clouds Locker" , posted by Fredon (Frederic David). The very original composition inspired me to take this photo. When I was in the same region in July, I was planning to go and look for the little building myself, but, by chance, I found another one (same aqueduct, but about 20 km away from frederic's picture, and not as beautiful :-(). You can see what it really looks like in the WS.
I stumbled into this one when one of my friends landed his glider in a field a few hundred meters from the aquaduct. So I went back the next day, and took this picture. A little hommage to Frederic's great idea. Hope you like it.

ta note m'a fait découvrir une extraodinaire photo de Frédéric ! merci
ta photo en revanche me laise un peu dubitative... bien réalisée certes mais avec une telle perfection au cadrage pile en face du bâtiment et un paysage si peu original que j'avoue être un peu déçue après la photo de référence pleine d'originalité et d'humour. excuse pour la franchise mais c'est ainsi...

Hi Wolf
Congratulations on your 200 photos.
I like your low perspective and how you've got the grass and builduing so sharp. You've respective the rule of thirds well and the clouds in the sky seem to add lots of depth.
Regards
Nikki

A very odd structure - like a portal to another dimension. Probably due to the angle you chose - good, low POV. Colors and light please me as well.
cheers,
Cristian

I'm discovering your gallery with that milestone, and it seems to be a rich one...
This minimalism and this grapshim are simply ok and produce impact. What else could we ask for ? That's a composition. A good one.

PS : after the 200th, you'll find so many things...

Iedereen heeft zowat zijn favorite foto groep, deze is mooi, eenvoudig maar zeker goed van kwaliteit.
Ook de samenstelling is mooi.

Good idea and well made photo Wolf. A fine solution - a door leading where?
Good use of the format shot from the right low pov and cropped to the pano format.
Using the front avoiding the side panels for sure the best choice.

Boeiende foto, Wolf. Eenvoudig qua compositie, maar de wisselwerking met de alomtegenwoordige lucht geeft een interessante dynamiek aan het geheel. Alsof het ééndimensionele gebouwtje op je afgestormd komt... En hier werkt het diepblauwe van de lucht bovenaan (dankzij je filter, maar waar ik doorgaans minder fan van ben) écht goed mee aan het creëren van die indruk.
Knap werk!
TFS & groetjes,
Erik

Hi Wolf!
Thanx for the dedicace ;-)
This shot is a great one too. It makes me strange to see a spot that i know but shot by another photographer!
Nice job :-)
