Silhouette of The Grand Master Photo

Photographer’s Note

This was shot inside the Palace of the Prince Grand Master in Rhodos, Greece. I thought the contrast between the old statue and the modern lightbulbs was special. I deliberatly darken the statue so we can only see the silhouette thus enhancing the contrast and mystery.

I don't remember exactly what was that statue, so if anybody can help me, I'd be glad to know about it and update that note.

Tech : shot in RAW, curves, darken statue, sharpen, framed.

Hi Alexandre,
This is a nice and moody shot, great color (yellow and black only - perhaps sephia would work as well)and the sillouet works nicely here. To me, would have been nice if the bulbs would have been fire, but he.
Great shot,
TFS
Etienne
