Photographer’s Note

Dunbrody Abbey is a Cistercian monastery in county Wexford, Ireland. The cross-shaped church was built in the 13th century, and the tower was added in the 15th century. With a length of 59m the church is one of the longest in Ireland. The visitor centre is run by the current Marquess of Donegall and has one of only two full sized hedge mazes in Ireland - wiki

Hello Lukasz
Like the POV here, looks like you have to beat your way through the field to reach the castle. The clouds look superb with the hues of blue. Castle and tree well positioned, like the colours and sharpness. Well done

hello Lukasz,
The low POV really makes for a dramatic composition. The grasses then lead the eye up to the ruins.
great clouds and colours.

Your very low pov emphasize a monastery in the vastness of rice fields, even with the low light your foreground accentuates the overall picture as your subject stands our perfectly. Nice shot.

Great photo Lukasz! That stormy sky is so good and it's a great match for the medieval feeling of the abbey. I like your compo with the giant barley field, but I wouldn't mind seeing a version with a great sky above that abbey. I think you exaggerated a bit on the unsharp mask, but that's just my taste.

Hi Lukasz. You are definitely demonstrating a unique style with your daring compositions and dramatic use of colour and light. Bringing us so close to the wheat maturing in summer was a master stroke, especially when over it we see the fine stone structure and above it all the splendid sky.Thoughtfully put together. Regards. Klaudio.
