Mount Hope Cemetery Photo

Photographer’s Note

As I was coming back home from work on a gloomy day, I decided to take a shortcut and walk through "Mount Hope Cemetery" in Rochester, NY. The sun shone through the clouds briefly and I captured that moment in this shot.

The gloomy sky matches well to the cemetery in the foreground. However it looks a bit unnatural as the patches where it's visible through the trees are brighter than the sky itself. Still I like the overall composition of this image and the mood it has.

Erdem, a late welcome to TE! Looking through your intial collection I stumbled over this one that has a pretty dramatic atmosphere. Your PP certainly was important to give the right light conditions, although you got some artifacts along the tree line as you pointed out in your WS with the original shot.
Keep up with the posting!
Regards, Peter

Bonjour Erdem
je trouve que la photo est très bien composée avec ces 3 bandes (sol/arbre/ciel). J'apprécie également l'ambiance que tu as su retranscrire. Bravo
Xavier

Calm field, dramatic sky. Interesting contrast! (Points tomorow...)
