Hi Hanssie! I like it very much, especially the black crosses against the sunny scene in the back very mysterious.

This could be a successful picture in Papagolf's series of churches. Very good atmosphere.

Here I share arth's opinion, the shooting angle is really very good. The view on the church from the cemetary is rather unusual, and it is almost a pity that the weather was nice, it would have been so frightening with a dark cloudy sky ! ;-)

Well seen once again, my friend.
(a workshop just for the fun)

Great POV and lots of interest between the dark and light areas - sky a touch blown - but in this case adds to the shot IMO :)

This typical disposition of the church surrounded by the cemetary is very well done.
There is a nice opportunity to show a darker area for the graves and crosses, and the light to the chapell, you did.
Lines, colors and the perspective going to a small piece of landscape is excellent.
I like it

Dag Hans,
Hier heeft u speciaal het spel met licht en schaduw goed gehanteerd, de grafzerken in het donker, heeft veel betekennis, en de kerk gevels in de zon wat eigenlijk leven betekend, de groene boom met de kleuren van de hoop, een min putje is de witte hemel, maar geen punt om over tevallen Hans!
Groeten,
John

Bonjour mon ami Hans,
Dès que je vois une église, je fonds, qu'elle soit petite ou grande, j'admire !
L'angle de prise de vue est parfait pour restituer la composition architecturale qui a dû s'effectuer au cours des siècles.
C'est vrai que l'endroit est paisible, les tombes qui font face à la mer ont une bien belle vue !
J'aime l'ambiance dégagée par la prise de vue.
J'aime beaucoup Hans.
Très amicalement.
Philippe

Mooie foto. Het licht is wat scherp, maar valt wel heel mooi op de kerk en ook door de ronde gaten van het kruis aan de rechterkant. De graven op de voorgrond en de grote schaduw-licht-contrasten zorgen voor veel diepte. De grafstenen geven het geheel ook iets mysterieus, vind ik.

Goed werk hier!

Hi Hans :)

This one is superbly composed! ALL the elements are very well arranged in the frame : The graves (and cross) in the right side and the tree's foliage in the left side gives a beautiful foreground; The back of this church, with this angle of view, gives a beautiful set of roofs and angles. The POV is really beautiful. I can also recognize the little turret in the front side (well visible on your previous shot). Well done, Hans. Even if the exposure is not the best (sky slightly burned), the composition work is excellent. And in my opinion it's a reference in this domain.

RegisMinot (1317) 2005-02-16 18:27

Beautiful composition with a great variety of shapes, lights and shadows. The number of roofs of different sizes is also impressive.

maphoto (8076) 2005-02-16 18:57

Nice shot Hans, nice tight cropping to present this place, the architecture of the church is pleasant from there. The light is well manage, good work.

Hi Hans!!1
Gosto muito desse angulo. Ele da muita força a composição. Alem das cores e texturas serem fantasticas. Otimo trabalho.
