Eaten by light Photo

Photographer’s Note

A window of Belem tower, near Lisbon. I love it when an “incorrect” exposition brings back an interesting result :-)

Good result in a difficult light-situation. I like this kind of picture. Wath you could do is to tilt the camera a bit better... so the windowpane is paralell to the picture edge. And I wish you captured more of the feet and floor. But then again you would loose those intereting rooflines. In this places a 20-35 mm is wonderful... ;)

It does give interesting results, a sort of dreamy quality to the picture, the roof adds interest to the top of the picture, if it had been any darker then cropping might have been better.

Foto interessante em particular pela forma como a luz distorce a posição do corpo pondo-o numa forma pouco natural.

Coloquei uma proposta no Workshop para explorar alternativas.
***************
Interesting photo mainly because the unatural position of the body created by the strong light.

I've posted a version on the workshop to explore alternatives.

Beautiful picture. It looks like a dream. Reminds me (why ?) of some Madredeus songs, it possesses the same intensity. I love it. I also have started a theme ("Irruption of light") where I put it.
