Kozolec Reloaded Photo

Photographer’s Note

I couldn't resist to post one more "Kozolec", during my trip to Slovenia I really fell in love with these hayracks because they add character to the beautiful slovenian alpine landscape and also offer superb photo opportunities.
This one can be found a few kilometers up the valley after Studor and opens the view to the next village.

Un festival de couleurs tendres et une composition aux petits oignons et à ras de terre lui donnent un petit côté graphique qui me plaît particulièrement bien.
Le fait d'avoir gardé un important avant-plan d'herbe fait pas mal pour la réussite de l'image.
Bravo Jean-Yves !

Salut Jean Yves

Good use of diminishing linear perspective from left to right. It is unusual & refreshing to see it used on a horizontal plane. Tres bon!

Simple, joliment teinté, dans des couleurs qui finissent par t'appartenir. Le sujet est très interessant et le plan extrèment bien composé.
Bravo
Jean Michel

Salut Jean-Yves,
Cette photo est pour moi l'occasion de découvrir tes "posts" récents de Slovénie et de très belles images. J'aime bien tes vues du lac de Bled que j'ai pu visiter il y a une dizaine d'années... mais c'était au mois de février et l'ambiance était un peu plus fraîche!
J'ai donc appris ce qu'est un Kozolec et c'est vrai que ça rajoute un p'tit quelque chose au paysage. Une belle composition, toute simple avec de belles couleurs.
Amitiés
Brigitte

Hi Jean Yves, this is a very simple picture but very lovely, the front with straw and in the depth the splendid church tower, the dark part against the blue sky is very nice contrast. Excellent composition.
Nicely done!

Nice photo Jean Yves, well composed and with nice perspective. I like how you have positioned the straw holder with the church and the hills behind, it gives depth to the picture. The colours are very nice and vivid. Well done!

Very good way to include the hayrack into your composition, Jean Yves. It makes a good foreground interest, and the way in which the rural Slovenian landscape opens up to the side and behind makes for a truly delightful viewing. The well-saturated natural colors are wonderful to watch. Well done.

C'est certain qu'il ont du charme ces Kozolec et c'est agréable de voir cette photo prise avec la lumière de septembre maintenant. Très bel angle de vue pour mettre en valeur le sujet principal. Bravo, Jean Yves!

Hi Jean! No matter how many Kozolec pics you post, they're all beautiful! The angles in which you shot your Kozolec series is really great, plus the sharpness and colors (especially on those wonderful landscapes as background) really are wonderful to look at! Great series!

A very pleasant composition Jean Yves with excellent light and framing! Very well done!

HI JY, I was tempted by your gorgeous bride, but the intersting POV and simplicity of this shot really caught my eye. The image is really sharp, colours well-saturated and I don;t know how you managed to do what you did with the angles, but it's excellent. Congrats, Lisa.
