Hi Cessy.
Jolie prise de cette "fête de la musique".
Belle capture de la lumière, pas évident dans ce genre d'endroit.
Bon cadrage et bon point de vue.
Joli, bien fait
Fred

Hi Cessy, A nice indoor shot with a very nice focus and back light on the conduct. The concentrations of the musicians in the orchestra are well captured. As audience, we don’t see this angle whenever the play is in progress. A nice shot and thanks for sharing.

A beautiful and atmospheric photo from the concert hall, Cessy. Good exposure to render the subtle ambience, and a nice framing with the conductor well placed in the scene as the musicians are grouped around him.

A well composed shot, Cessy. As has been noted, this is taken from a unique perspective for the audience. The lighting is subtle but superb. Good action and a feeling of harmony. Well done.

Hi Cessy. Ahh a little dose of class for us today I see! ;) You handled the low-light wonderfully. I'm surprised they let you use a tri-pod in this setting. Instead of being chaos with a bunch of random performers you have found order in the framing. Nice shot Cessy.

Yes, it's summer and the fete de la musique was everywhere in Europe. I like how you too the picture with the orchest chief well placed. Colors are very good too in this dark place. Well done!

Hi cessy

I like the curve of the row of music sheets. Well managed interior lighting. Good graphism, selective focus & color. Bagus sekali!
