Sagrada Familia in its church Photo

Photographer’s Note

In the long note of my last post I didn't mention what is the translation of Sagrada Familia, although it is likely that it is obvious even for those who don't know a single Spanish word: Holy Family. Here you have a detail of the Eastern facade of the famous church depicting the Holy Family. Maybe I should have waited for Christmas to include it in maloutim's Christmas Nativities theme.

• WS#1: Another, wider, view.

• WS#1: View of the East facade.

Location of the POV (latitude, longitude): 41.4039,2.17477

Hello José,

A marvelous detail shot of the sandstone carvings, from that landmark day on 3 August 2008. The dark interior makes a very good contrast. For a hand-held shot, it is exceptionally sharp. The note also is highly informative.

Warm regards,

Bulent

So good exposure having fantastic details and colour!

The PoV enhanced the performance and the light management worked well!

Interesting is also the architecture!
The two WS are useful for better understanding of the whole work and surely well captured!

Warm regards,
Athanasios.

Ciao Jose,
un grandissimo close-up!
Mi piace tutto in quest'immagine, il POV è perfetto così come il taglio che hai dato, ottima la gestione della luce e dell'esposizione che esalta la bellezza dei dettagli e lo sharpness.
Un lavoro davvero magnifico!
Un caro abbraccio

Olá José,
impressionante mesmo a quantidade e qualidade dos detalhes desse trabalho, obras de artista mesmo. A qualidade de sua captura ficou ótima também. Belo trabalho.
Parabéns e Abraço

Olá José,
A Sagrada Família é extraordinária na sua totalidade e vista por fora. Mas os seus pormenores são também dignos de apreciação, eventualmente mais que o conjunto.
Nesta foto não gosto muito do cantinho azul; ou deixavas aparecer mais, ou então nada. Assim, acho que prefiro o WS1.
Cumprimentos,
F.

Superb detail, colour variations, sharpness, and cropping of this beautiful detail do justice to this fantastic building.
Thanks,

Bonjour José,

On a jamais fini de faire le tour de la superbe architecture de cette imposante église, il y a tellement de détails comme celui que tu nous présentes ici. Belle qualité de l'image, j'aime bien les tons chauds de la photo qui donnent une certaine douceur à cette scène religieuse. Jolie et intéressante photo tout comme tes WS, merci José.

Avec toutes mes amitiés et une très bonne journée,

Jean-Charles

Best regards,

Jose, great shot, I think there can never be too many of this masterpiece on the web. It is many years since i was here but the shots are a great reminder that these sorts of talent still exist on the planet and that perfection comes very slowly.

Olá José,
Gostei de todas as três fotos. O pequeno triângulo de céu não me incomoda, acho até que dá mais noção espacial. A qualidade das imagens, como de costume, é excelente. Parabéns!

Bonjour Jose!
Un point de vue inhabituel de la nativité prise de coté, avec un zoom qui a très bien fonctionné!
L'or de la pierre est aussi très bien adapté! A quel moment de la journée as-tu pris la photo?
Je me suis permise d'ajouter la photo au thème: "Christmas nativities"; après tout, on n'en est pas si loin, et les longues nuits de tempête nous font bien penser à cette fête de la lumière dont nous manquons un peu ces jours-ci!
Merci du partage!
Bien amicalement.
Marie Louise.

Salut José
Un détail intéressant de cette cathédrale inachevée.
La qualité de la netteté est saisissante
L'image en WS1 méritait aussi d'être publiée en image principale.
Amitiés
