Photographer’s Note

Costa verde.

The vault Santa Cristina, revealed with the public in 1839 per Prosper Mérimée, and classified in 1890

In the years which followed the fall of Pisa to the profit of Genoa in 1284, the construction of Romance churches slows down. But Gênois bring the art of the fresco. The influence of Masters like Nicolo Corso, more known in Italy than in its native island, or of Antone Simone di Calvi (which one can admire very beautiful tryptique of 1505 in Sant' Albanu in Balagne), is felt everywhere. Demons hagards and saints amazed with the stiff gestures, of which the open large eyes point out their invaluable colours the vaults of the mountain.

San-Christina-of-Valle-di-Campoloro discovers, with the gleam of its narrow doors, of the unsuspected treasures, corroded by the time, but whose glare did not lose anything of its naive freshness.

Fantastic silouhette, and the way the cross intersects the center of the sun is truly impressive.
Best regards,

Salut Hassan. Beautiful framing with the silhouette of the old church against the sun - I like a lot the bright area behind the cross at the top. The tobacco filter works great on this one to give a moody and dramatic sky for the scene. Well captured.

Salut Hassan
Papagolf est injoignable pour l'intant dans sa résidence d'été.
La composition est appréciable; ambiance très dramatique; la silhouette est bien cadrée en rapport avec l'arriere-plan, mais elle mêrite aussi une autre photo avec le soleil latéral.

Salut Hassan,
Super la silhouette de cette chapelle qui se détache contre le ciel dégradé. J'aime ta composition avec le soleil placé juste derrière la croix. J'aurais peut être juste fait un peu de PP pour redresser les verticales car ça penche un peu, mais rien de bien grave.
Amicalement, Brigitte

Se ve muy bien sólo la sombra de ese edificio con el cielo de colores oscuros y dramáticos detrás. Buena composición.
