Trinity College Photo

Photographer’s Note

Another view of inside the impressive Trinity College in Cambridge.

Fortunatelly for us, the weather was sunny in that moment and I could take this picture before the rain that, a fews minutes later, felt...

I hope you like it!

Probably, if you has seen the film "Charriots of Fire" you recognize this place... :P

Ola Oscar,

This is a fabulous image of the great Trinity College of Cambridge, where Isaac Newt studied, and subsequently taught. You captured the weather perfectly. The light and colors for the scene could not have been better. I spent a long time at Oxford, but in my field (theoretical physics), Cambridge is the most important institution in the world. And, you are right, the scene of the sprint between the two students in "Chariots of Fire" of fire took place around the courtyard, the largest among all the colleges of Oxford and Cambridge.

I see that you live in Barcelona. I was there briefly last August. It is a magnificent city!

Warm regards,

Bulent

Hola oscar

The warm, yellow, ochre colours, of the impressive sandstone building, contrast well, against the blue sky. Excellent sharpness & framing. Tfs!

Hola Oscar
Sunny Scotland ? RU kidding ? Still it helps delivering good light onto this facade, it could also have been nice to try a pano here.

Mala... muy mala.

Pero siempre podría ser peor... pero por suerte tú no apareces en la foto.

Hola Oscar, great shot of this iconic university. You have brought us the grand old architecture beautifully. The image is so sharp and well-exposed. Thanks for the Note too, I never realised Chariots of Fire was filmed there. Great job, Lisa.

Hi Oscar.
Very good architectural shot, not oversharpened and allowing the magnificent building to combine beautifully with the clouds. They certainly look like rain clouds. Good inclusion of the human figures in this scene, surrounded by the great space of the courtyard. Excellent shot.
Regards,
Andrew

Hola Oscar.
Típica arquitectura Inglesa, sobria y majestuosa. Muy interesante tu nota sobre el film Charriots of Fire, no sabia se había filmado ahí. Una foto grande, grande como tu dices.
Un fuerte abrazo mi amigo.

Hola OScar,

Recien llego de Londres, y ahora puedo hacer un nueva observacion. Por alguna razon la luz en Londres y otras partes de Inglaterra es uy dificil de fotografiar. Los lugares se prestan muy facil para la composicion... pero la luz es dificil de manejar... y esta foto es una muestra de eso. Tienes areas sombreadas y soleadas y un cielo medio nublado (esto es una pesadilla para el sensor de la camara!)

Pero veo que te echaste la pelea y sacasta la foto adelante.

Un saludo desde NJ
