Justice and St. Nicholas' Church, a photo from Hessen, West

Photographer's Note

Frankfurt am Main, on a sunny day in November. Before me I see Justice, right next to the Old Church of St. Nicholas (Middle Ages).

This is beautiful. The depth and sharpness of the statue of the Justizia is so very crucial and significant to the photograph. Moreover - you got the light right. This bronze actuall dominated the photograph. Much more than the bright and vibrant St. Nicholas' Church. The tower of the church does however balance the composition - technically.
The timber framed "Fachwerk" houses beside the church, with deep crimson framing has been facinatingly captured.
Just have to appreciate the dotted birds in between the statue and the tower. It does add liveliness to the photograph. The light blue sky in the background made it even more prominent.
Thanks for sharing.

Hello Wolfgang,
I much prefer the colour version here. The image is very well composed making an interesting juxtaposition between the ornate statue and the sober lines of the church tower. Top class technical presentation.

Bonjour Wolfgang,

J'aime beaucoup ce point de vue, la très belle contre plongée qui nous donne la statue sous un très bel angle et sous une lumière exceptionnelle.

Amicalement

Serge

Hi Wolfgang,
Yes just after I have submitted my photo from this square I noticed yours and I got ashamed that I have repeated the subject and that my photo is so much worse. The thing which I envy you here the most is actually the weather and light. Everything is so vivid so colorful and attractive in your photo whereas I have kind of washed out version.
Great work!
