Casa Mila Gracia Photo

Photographer’s Note

Another classical picture depicting Casa Mila, as taken from the elegant boulevard, Passeig De Gracia, and where I also included the street lamps.
I wanted to recreate the atmosphere of what Barcelona was in those years at the beginning of the 20th century, when people were really concerned to create art and artistic designs.

Your choice of silhouette is very elegant, and is well positioned in relation to the background.

Merhaba Izzet,
great picture that shows what is called 'Modernisme' in Barcelona. Good use of circular polarizer. So the building seems to have an extra-light.
Selamlar,
Roland

Merhaba Izzet.
About your last pictures... how to say... I am sure about the photo.
I mean that, of course, is a correct work with a good contrasted and saturated colours. The composition is good and combine the street lamps of Passeig de Gràcia with the Gaudi's work.
But I miss something. Perhaps the clear sky or the light don't allow a more interesting view.

Regards.

Merhaba Izzet Bey,

ondeki sokak lambasi ve agaca ragmen arkada Gaudi'nin muzip tebessumu kendini oldukca hissettiriyor.

tebrikler,
Hakan

Hi Izzet. Yes, classical in a way, but also "classy" and elegant. Good use of the foreground wrought-iron lamp and the tree silhouette to frame the famous building, and nice time of day to benefit from the warming sunlight. Just arrived at Kyoto, best regards.

Nice shot of the ornate light standard. This is really from a different era, and unfortunately, it doesn't look like we are going back in that direction any time soon. Tha angle looking up at the sky makes the curve look like it is reaching to the sky. Excellent!

Salut Izzet,
Est ce celle ci la troisieme de la serie dont tu m'as parle l'autre jour ?
Si oui alors personnellement je reste sur mon choix de la deuxieme "Two chimneys" pour exposer, comme je te l'ai deja dit elle est tres bien encadree et puis surtout sa force reside dans sa simplicite, ce qui permet au plus grand nombre de la lire facilement et de l'apprecier, a mon avis.
Ca ne veut pas dire que celle ci est mauvaise, l'idee du point de vue bas pour avoir ce beau lampadaire qui s'eleve au dessus de la maison et contraste en noir sur le blanc est interessante, mais comme il s'agit d'un choix alors je vote tout de suite et sans hesitation pour la deuxieme.
Bonne journee,
Jean-Yves

Hola Izzet

Esta foto me ha llamado la atención porque parece que tenemos el mismo punto de vista. Te explico hace tiempo colgue una foto similar a esta pero con un plano más abierto. Esta composición más cerrada es todo un acierto.
Saludos y hasta pronto.
Sergio

Great compo Izzet!
Very original inclusion of the streetlamp and good use of polarizar, with more colour intensity.
Good job!
Rgds,
