Espera

Aguardo a tua vinda!
E, embora me entristeça
Enquanto aguarde
É tão linda a promessa
Que chego a desejar que venhas tarde!

Amigos, esta é a porta da Catedral da Sé. Achei bonito o cenário visto de dentro para fora, e embora uma foto assim seja difícel de se obter bons resultados em se falando de amadores como eu, arrisquei e aguardo o seu comentário.

Abraços à todos.

Olá Vera,

Interesting image with the woman's face hidden from the lens. The idea is very nice and the image is well composed. The ground seem a bit overexposed on my screen but is a big deal. Good framing and colours. Thanks.

Hi Vera. I like the ambiance flooding from this composition. The reflected light off the light coloured concrete makes it difficult but the result is fine.The fashionable lady is well placed. I wonder if a UV filter would assist this? Great result. TFS. Murray.

Muy bonita composition, me gusta mucho la posicion de la dama contra la luz y la actividad del parque

Hi Vera. Even though the ground is very bright, the overall effect is great. The woman's stance, the aura of light around her and the view of the men below her make her appear almost like some goddess.Mind you, Judging by her dress, I don't think religion is on her mind at moment. It looks like the man in her life is running late for the rendezvous.Regards. Klaudio.

though others have said the ground is a bit overexposed, I don't think the woman would have come out as nicely..she'd have been too dark. I love her stance and attitude. she has a very suggestive look but at the same time little is exposed. with the angle of the light and the sheerness of her skirt, it's a good thing she is holding her coat where she is.

Olá Vera,
é um tipo de foto chata mesmo, repare como o piso ficou superexposto, mas acho que não chega a tirar valor da imagem, uma solução aqui seria o uso de um flash de preenchimento mesmo, mas nem sempre o resultado fica bom também, mas mesmo assim uma bonita foto, eu gostei.
Parabéns e Abraço!

Hi Vera,
This is an interesting shot and you are right to present it in the portrait format. The vertical lines and the posture of the lady all suggested and emphasized the waiting. I also lke this shot as it encourages the viewer to interact and ask questions. Maybe a polorizer can help cut some of the glares. Well done!!

Best wishes and a nice day ahead.

Ola Vera,
The bright light in the courtyard acts as a partial desaturation making the woman stnad out well against a BG that might otherwise be too busy.
SAA, Pat

Olá Vera, parabéns por este excelente resultado. Gosto da ideia e a luz está bem bonita (especialmente no cabelo e ombro dela), mesmo estando um pouco queimado no pavimento. O poema é perfeito para a imagem.
Um abraço,

Vera,
A bela moça está num luxo só e a foto ficou muito bem executada para mostrá-la em grande composição.

Abraço

Olá Vera,

ninguém melhor do que você para resgatar uma cena com essa magnífica luz. Parece algo tirado de um sonho, dado seu trabalho sobre isso. A composição está ótima, o texto acompanha à altura. Parabéns!
Abraço,
Carlos

Gosto desta perspectiva da mulher esperando e do poema a acompanhar. Apesar de algo sobre-exposta nao deixa de ser uma boa fotografia
Abraço e bom Domingo

Oi Vera
algumas imagens ultrapassam o limite da qualidade tecnica... são muito mais do que isso, e até não auxilia nada frente ao que esta realmente exposto na imagem.... a sua é uma delas, aliás como outras imagens suas...
parabéns, e até acredito se for falar em tecnica, que esta ótima, o objeto a ser fotografado foi a mulher, bonita e bem vestida, no aguardo, e esta esta a meu ver muito boa. bons detalhes no vestido..

Hello Vera,
The bright light all over the scene gives another sense to the moment.I enjoy it very much!

Greetings,
Thomas

Olá Vera,
interesante escena la que has captado en esta composición, que realmente simboliza la espera. La chica se destaca en el primer plano, sobre un paisaje urbano con gran perspectiva y con una atrevida sobreexposición en el suelo que funciona positivamente, al dar un fuerte contraste entre la luz y las sombras.
Me gusta, es una foto con mucha fuerza y simbolismo, muy creativa.
Un abrazo,
Josep

Olá Vera,
Bela tomada, gosto da luminosidade que realça a bonita jovem, numa perfeita combinação com a nota.
Parabéns!

Ola Vera,
what a pity a pretty woman like this to waiting in front of the door.I like the portrait of the waiting woman as the good management of the light that falls on her.Well done.

Have a nice week,Danos

Hello Vera,
What isn't to like in this great catch of yours?!!! A warm scene with the tourists, and of course with your main model,
Excellent work in all aspects, positioning, lighting...

Que bela luz, Vera! Valoriza a mulher, ou é a mulher que valoriza a luz? De toda forma, a mulher parece emitir luz. E emite, não emite?
Muito bonita a foto! A mulher parece ser ainda mais... é?

Indeed a difficult shot Vera, but indeed you did a superb work here.
Young lady is taken excellent and at the same time background is excellent too.
I like the vertical tree lines.
A very attrctive composition my friend
Congratulations
best regards Argyris

Bonjours,
belle photo de cette dame qui surplombe les autres gens.
Jolie couleurs et et bel effet.
Ces arbres de très grandes tailles font un beau rideau a l' arrière de votre prise.

Hi Vera,
well captured and nicely framed elegant shot, presented in an appropriate vertical format. The backlight and the pov works very well here. Nice job!
Tfs and best wishes.

Boa noite Vera!
Não tinha visto esta ainda! Uma bela imagem que apesar de alguns problemas técnicos como já apontados, como a superexposição do chão, prefiro ver o resultado final, com um bonitos POV e composição! Além disso, o título acabou caindo muito bem à foto e também ajudou a ficarmos a imaginar a cena vista ou vivida por nós mesmos!
Parabéns!

Hi Vera,
She is quite lightly dressed, maybe that is why she is waiting outside the Cathedral! Good framing with the church's door visible, and the busy streets in strong light do a good BG

The halo light makes it a little special and creates a good atmosphere. Soft, peaceful and a little 70's. Works pretty well.
Stéphane

Hi Vera,
Good use ot the strong light to draw this silhouette, nice result.

Vera,
o mesmo local da foto seguinte mas com um tema totalmente diferente. A ansiedade da espera, a beleza da espera, a linda promessa ... ta tudo muito bem composto aqui e espero que a bela moca vai ficar esperando ai ate eu passar pela Se em fevereiro.
Peter

Vera bonjour.
J'aime la lumière qui vient sur la fille comme une réponse à son attente. Une photo très agréable à regarder.
Jacques

Hi Vera,
You have well captured this woman, good vertical framing, despite the hard light you have well managed the exposure.
Regards

Hi Vera,
Can't read your note, but the photo is very intriging. The woman looks beautiful, even from behind ;-)
Her high-heel shoes, her clothing, her beautiful long hair, her sunglasses, it all looks very stylish. Sadest thing is, we will never see here again from the front, so the rest of her will stay a mystery...forever :-(
The way you captured this is great with a kind of colour toning what fits perfectly to the image...mysterious, that's what it is.
Have a great weekend, Henk

Ola Vera

It is an interesting take, from every standpoint, but it is a pity that excess lighting has deferred certain areas.

The shade of clothing for women, contrasting elegantly, and the position of the protagonist conforms to the title of the photo.

John

Realmente é um cena dificil de ser capturada.
As diferencas e a intensidade da luz deixa a exposição complicada.
Bela foto.

Oi Vera ,
Que bela captura desta senhora a espera de alguém , ficou magnifica gostei muito dos detalhes do vestido e só falta um pouco de vento para o cabelo se levantar ,parabéns!!!
Um abraço Gonçalo

Ola Vera, she looks elegant and she is very good composed with the very straight trees in the background.

Hi Vera
Interesting contrasted picture with hard lights, it's a very nice composition; original by the subject.
Best regards.

Olá Vera
Apesar de o chão ter ficado um pouco sobre-exposto, não deixa de ser uma excelente fotogrfia. Momento bem caturado e a silhueta da moça está magnifica. Quando via a miniatura pensei numa moça à porta de uma qualquer loja da Óscar Freire...
Parabéns.

A very nice picture. Like your framing of the lady against backlight & the halo works well here. The softness is perfect for this picture. Well done!

Hi Vera,

I just wandered in your gallery and picked up the one picture outstanding among the others always well studied.

The wild effect of the heads down the stairs justified the special effect of the over exposition on the ground.

The lady looks very natural with no artificial components. There are 13 visible tree trunks right aligned and ending somewhere at right and the observer thinks there are a lot more.

Finally, I chose this picture among the 18 in the first page of your gallery because there is a lot of little things (details) and many of everything (components).
