Trinity Church - Enfield Photo

Photographer’s Note

Trinity Church is a Methodist and United Reformed church situated next to the New Riwer in Enfield, on the outskirts of North London in the county of
Middlesex.

I chose the sepia effect because I think it is more misterious.

In my WS, can you see the colors version and different frame.

Liliana,
the sepia choice isn't just better because of the more mysterious impression, but also due to the terrible light that you got in the sky. The conversion to monochromatism is always a very good choice in such predicaments of overexposed light.

Hello Liliana, a very well compensated framing .... the tree, the girl, the church .... three definite well planes and an image that to be of color seems an agreement to cuttlefish, I like much.

Felicidades.

Un saludo.

The choice of the sepia was very good as the original does not have much colour and the sky looks a bit washed. The sharpness is excellent and let us see all the details of the façade. The subtle inclusion of that person is excellent too to give a right idea of the church size. Well done.

Hi Liliana,

This is beautiful photo of Church .
Nice composition, details and conversion to sepia. Well done,
Georg

PixelTerror (86839) 2008-02-29 3:01

Hi Lili,
Given the dull sky a good idea to go sepia, nice church, ideally it would have been good to detach the church spire from the branches but it seems difficult from there even taking a lower position.
Have a nice day JY

Hi Liliana a beautiful sepia view, with amazing contrast, light and excellent quality and POV too.
thanks, ciao

John_F_Kennedy (31994) 2008-02-29 4:09

I think a black/white version could be also a very intersting alternative. YOu had choose a nice POV and I like the framing with the tree. Well done.
Best wishes,
Achim

Dyerco (9302) 2008-02-29 7:50

Good choice of presentation. The signs don't stick out at you and we pay more attention to the detail in the church.
Nicely done Lili.

Hi Lili, do you remember ? When i critiqued the picture "leaving reality" i told you it would have at least one green star, it have now 8 ! :-)
I think this one will have less than 8 green stars but it's still a good one, sepia's spirit, a good compo with that tree in foreground that gives texture to the compo.
A good one

jonathan_hart (22627) 2008-02-29 9:19

Like how you frame this composition Liliana, conversion on this is a good result also. Regards Steve.

Hi Lili,

It is indeed a pleasant scene. I like the fact that there is life in the photo, represented by the single person - this makes the photo twice as good. I may have chosen black and white rather than sepia personally, because I just like the tonal range better. One thing that is good about the sepia is that it compliments the texture of the stonework material used to construct the church. The placement of the tree is quite good, it balances the spire efficiently. Just be careful about the sky overexposure, it is difficult to get right, I know, but perhaps a time of day with for favorable (lower) lighting would help this improve capture.

Matt

azaf1 (15547) 2008-03-01 0:35

Hi Liliana
I like the looming effect created by the tower and the texture you have chosen as it renders a feeling of old times. The branches of the tree create a beautiful frame and the figure of the person adds a warmth to the composition

Bonjour, chère Liliana,
Photo d'hier et photo d'aujourd'hui (j'aime bien la façon dont vous avez présenté les deux possibilités).
L'une avec sa couleur sépia me fait penser à une photo découverte au fond d'un tiroir d'une vieille commode !
Amitiés.
Philippe

pasternak (13646) 2008-03-01 4:55

Nice architectural shot, Lili, well done in sepia, the tree trunk and the church spire well balance each other...

Cheers
Alexander

gneufeld (15235) 2008-03-01 6:07

Hi Liliana,
I thing the large tree and framing it provides is perfect for this fine image of the large church. Great details and textures. Fine shot and TFS. Gerald

paololg (14237) 2008-03-01 13:56

Ciao Lili,
tra le 3 foto che hai postato nel WS questa sicuramente la trovo la più interessante. Sei riuscita a dare una colorazione seppia fantastica, in linea con il soggetto antico. Ciò che più mi entusiasta di questa immagine però è la perfetta definizione dei dettagli, in particolare la corteccia dell'albero in primo piano. Non sbagli mai una foto, complimenti!
Paolo

InasiaJones (20703) 2008-03-01 21:14

Hi Liliana,

Always interesting to see the original colour version, in order to compare the results and visualize the adaptation. It also allows to appreciate the post processing involved.

This is a carefully built composition, with a tree used as a foreground element and a natural accessory to frame the building. The delicate branches are also well located to close the top and keep the eye in the scene, without masking too heavily the bell tower. Another tree next to the church on the left serves as a pleasing visual buffer. Stylish subject is discreet in proportion, but welcomed in the image.

Buenas Dimanchini! (invented language... :-P)

Hello Liliana,
J’aime beaucoup le ton obtenu par ton traitement qui restitue très bien l’effet « photo ancienne »,
Très bonne composition également de ton image avec la présence humaine et l’arbre au premier plan,
Chouette image !
Amicalement et au plaisir,
Robert

Hi Liliana,

This photo is just great. I think that sepia realisation suits perfect there. And this is a great example how we can achieve perfect result with a relatively “simple” camera. All that words about SLR-s don’t count when I look on pictures like that. Great sharpness, perfect light and beautiful subject.

Thank you very much,
Dmitri

cobbydale (1924) 2008-03-03 15:54

Lili, you have so many wonderful images in your gallery. When I first saw the thumbnail for this one I thought maybe the sky was overexposed and it wasn't going to be such a good shot. But when I opened it full size I saw that I was wrong. The sepia conversion works well with the white sky and the composition generally is excellent. I like the inclusion of the girl, and I really like that tree on the right.
Well done.
Leon

Pascale (10188) 2008-03-03 21:26

Bonjour Liliana
Un bon cadrage de cette église avec ce tronc et ces branches qui font un joli cadre naturel .Le ton sépia est très bien choisi et je préfère cette version aux 2 WS
Bonne journée
Amitiés

toto (18755) 2008-03-04 1:14

Belle photo de cette jolie Eglise en sèpia, mais en couleur elle est jolie aussi, difficile de choisir.
Belle netteté de l' ensemble et cet arbre a droite donne un bel effet.

Amitiés Thomas
Je reviens

Guten Tag Liliana

The sepia tone here suits perfectly, & imparts an aged, classical look. Good graphism & sharpness. Tfs!

Emile (20125) 2008-03-13 17:19

Hola Liliana.

Hello Lili
Good choice of sepia in this well framed shot. The tree on the right has been put to good effect and the image is nice and sharp. Nice one.
Best wishes

AROBN54 (10789) 2008-03-22 10:52

Hello, Lili,
this is a marvelous shot! I love the sepia tone and the details are superb. The tree frames the shot wonderfully and the light is just right. Beautifully done! Many thanks and warmest wishes,
Shelly

jwmunro (6255) 2008-04-07 17:14

Hello Liliana -

This is the one that I prefer, nice selection. The sky was not a lot of help on this day but that's England for you. You did a very good job of light management as there is some detail in the sky. Selecting a B&W with sepia was a good way to handle the sky. The sepia also gives an older quality and maybe looks like one of your old postcards. Excellent sharpness and nice composition. Well done!

Thank you for Sharing

John

Bandit (2120) 2008-04-14 11:28

Très belle composition et tu as fait le bon choix en sépia ! Le tout ressort bien mieux comme ça !! Du beau travail !!
Bravo !!
