Hi Hermann, I like these old parts of cemeteries. The atmosphre is so peaceful. The white pouder is beautiful. Nice picture, Nino

Looks like a picture book, the slight covering of snow picking out the details of the very effectively, nice detail having the bike there.

Dag Hermann,
Ook in Vlaanderen wil de winter maar niet stoppen, ook deze morgen -3° Celsius en een weinig sneeuw, maar daardoor is deze foto zo mooi, excellent symmetrisch de bomen die toch de eerste tekenen van de lente laten zien, alleen de fietser heeft het blijkbaar wat moeilijker om te fietsen.
Prachtig werk Hermann.
Groeten,
John

The thumbnail doesn't show the veloist there in the center, Hermann. It is a fun surprise! The lone figure adds a lot to this image! Nice, centered and balanced composition.

Hi Hermann,
This is in sequence another amazing and splendid picture that you post at TE. The snow, the atmosphere and the place with the man and the bycicle near the center of the frame. Possible a surrealist approach bu so well taken in a great quality and creative moment viw. Nicely taken and so well composed with good light, enquadrement view and your personal touch that I like also. Congratulations and have a nice week. My best regards.

The new snow makes a pleasant effect on the cemetery indeed, Hermann, but I think at almost mid-March it's really time for the white stuff to finally make way for spring. Good symmetric compo with a nice perspective effect from the pathway grid, and a good inclusion with the bicyclist.

Hej Hermann,
Nice picture of this cemetery, the snow looks indeed very nicely. With the lighting, there's a nice, peaceful mood. The cyclist is a nice addition, good work!
Groeten,
Lars

Hi Hermann, A nice perspective view. The light snow has well decorated the small path. Nice sunny day right after the snow. Good capture of the detailed tree branches.

I love the picture, the trees look like crying trees and the man in the bicycle really adds some drama to it. Well done!

Hi Hermann, the sprinkling of snow gives it own atmospheric touch to this symmetric capture. De 'treurwilgen' do their slightly gloomy thing here. And the cyclist is an intriguing part of the composition - a nice and symbolic pause in the perspective and context. Very well seen and very good work.
Have a nice week,
Bert

This is a very successful photo. The perspective and summetry work so well as does the triangle of sky. The light highlights the tree trunks and creates interesting shadow patterns. Of course the cyclist adds an extra dimension, but the snow is the icing on the cake.

Hi Hermann - The cross at the end of the road completes the image and gives symmetri as well - I like the living element as well at a place like this - thanks for sharing.

Hallo Hermann,

I like very much the sense of perspective and the almost symmetrical composition, with that lonely biker in the middle, adding a lot to the image.

I have the intention of getting the 17-40L, and your photos have helped me forget any doubt.

Best regards and have a great week,
Carlos

Bonjour Hermann,
une photo avec de superbes couleurs et comme sur ma dernière, des arbres dont les branches se dessinent bien dans le ciel.
POV et cadrage à symétrie,; cela donne bien ici.
Un endroit apparement tranquille.
Compliments.
Daniel.

Hi Hermann

I like the superb example of diminishing linear perspective with vanishing point. Excellent sharpness & color. The cyclist adds scale & context. Good work!

The snow makes it B&W in a colorful compo. Interesting natural visual effect. It was a good idea to shot the man inside too.
