Gate of Royal Castle Photo

Photographer’s Note

Warszawa (Warsaw), Zamek Królewski (the Royal Castle). The personal offices of the king and the administrative offices of the Royal Court of Poland were located there from the 16th century until the Partitions of Poland. The Constitution of May 3, 1791, Europe's first modern codified national constitution, as well as the second-oldest national constitution in the world, was drafted here by the Four-Year Sejm. Between 1926 and World War II the palace was the seat of the Polish president, Ignacy Mościcki. After the devastation of World War II it was rebuilt and reconstructed.

This is a funny photo. I love how everyone seems to be doing something very different. The POV of the beautiful orange building is quite well done, and could stand alone as a photo, but the people make it excellent. Well done.

Sincerely,
Kate

Hello Swiatopelk,
Excellent composition full of life with interesting architecture, very nice frame, very good light management. I like your POV through this arch and the Royal castle in the BG full of sun light.
Have a nice day, Vasilis.

Hi Swiatek,
nice capture of this place. Beautiful point of view and I think it is better than the POV of those silhouetted man and boy trying to take shot. Great atmosphere. Beautiful light that provides the interior of the gate construction. Depth and colours are fine. Very well done. Tfs.
Have a nice day.

Cześć, i to mi sie podoba, że w końcu nie standardowy widok zamku, ale dziedzniec, który też jest atrakcyjny. Fajna sylwetka chlopca w szerokich gatkach. Brawo za ciekawe ujęcie.

Hi Swiatopelk: This is so well metered shot in keeping the details under the shade and yet perfectly exposed building on the outside. Fine capture with beautiful ambiance. Regards. Jusni

Ciao Swiatopelk, lovely frame by arch on a splendid castle, great light and colors, wonderful perspective, very well done, have a good week end, ciao Silvio

AKITA (5589) 2009-10-23 18:01

dear Swiatopelk,
this contrast effect between fore dark arch gate and lighted palace seen through the gate is very nice and beautiful.
of course the silhouettes of people are well located best position in it.
whole feeling is cheerful and a little mysterious,
in my feeling main subject is quiet and graceful wall lighted by reflected light from stone floor, this ambience is wonderful.
thank you,
Akihisa

Hi Swiatopelk

Good use of the fg arch as a framing device on the bg scene, with excelelnt colour sharpness & saturation. Superb shadow details & nice reflections, in the shiny fg pavement. The partial silhouettes of the 2 photographers adds interest. Tfs!

Hello,

A photo very well managed in the setting of the contrast leaving details in the shadow. Moreover there is a frame inside frame effect and the dark foreground increases the impact of the colors in background.
The people are enough separated to have a good visibility and to make a link with the reader of the photo.

Yves.
