Chalkis - The Court House - Test #2 Photo

Photographer’s Note

This is the Court House of Chalkis, an impressive building who builded at the beginning of the 20th century (1909) from the very fine architect Mathaios Kamaras who builded and other fine buildings in Chalkis.

All expensives for this excellent building was from the big benefactor Andreas Syggros (statue of this great (and rich) Greek you can see behind the sign at the right side).

Bonjour Mpampis,
Couleurs géniales et grande netteté. Par contre le cadrage aurait pu inclure moins de cette route pas très jolie.
Compliments.
Daniel.

Serwus Mpampis!
Really impressive building, so in Greek style. Shown in perfect light. Sunny composition. I think car on the left is a bit disturbing, but it is in the shadow so just a little bit ;) Any weak points more.
Good work and fine note.
Very best regards,
Mat

Hi Mpampis,
Nice building and well captured poto. I like crisp light and strong contrast so typical for southern locations. Well done!

Thanks,
Marek

Bonsoir mon ami Mpampis,
Merci de nous présenter des édifices qui sont rarement vus des touristes.
J'aime ce bâtiment avec ces colonnes à chapiteau ionique et cette grande volée de marches desservant le hall. La présence des palmiers donne un charme fou à l'ensemble. Il semble que la statue du bienfaiteur a fait l'objet de graffiti !
Merci pour la note d'accompagnement.
Amitiés.
Philippe

A glassclear view of this Court House with the greens in front, a difficult subject architecture, I think you put this in all his glory wit a good lower POV looking up to it slightly in perspective. That wire you could still clone out to benefit the shot I think.
Well done Mpampis, perfect technique of colors and sharpness.

Nice courthouse. I really like the architecture, because besides the Classical Greek design it is low and that conveys a lot of elegance, especially in a building with those functions.

Nice colors and details. Cloning out the wire and avoiding the car if possible would be a good idea.

Ωωω! Εξαιρετικές λεπτομέρειες και φως. Συμφωνώ για το καλώδιο και το αυτοκίνητο. Καλό θα ήταν να τα αποφύγεις! :)

Εξαιρετικά ζωντανά χρώματα, κατάληλος φωτισμός και απίστευτη καθαρότητα!! Δεν πιστεύω να έχεις κανένα παράπονο από την D70. Τα πρώτα δείγματα είναι υπέροχα! Πάρα πολύ καλή σύνθεση!
