Ola Ana

Really impressive shot.
You've done a great use of the arcades to get a great perspective and a graphical effect very attractive.
You've waited for the right moment to have this elegant woman at the ideal place, in the perfect middle of the opening.
The exposure is perfect, and this white is very luminous.
Excellent quality, and a striking sharpness to appreciate each detail and texture.
Compliments.

Hi Ana

Creative viewpoint. The lady in the picture looks like a high fashion model with her walk and that hat. Great candid shot. Excellent lighting management, details and DOF.

Well done,
Tosca

Hi Ana
Excellent perspective with strong repeating patterns. The people also provide focal interest at the end of the stairway.

Ana,
a simetria e perspectiva da imagem causa um boa impressão, conduzindo o olhar até o fundo onde estão as pessoas.
Interessante que em um primeiro olhar, a moça que desce as escadas parece ser uma estátua de alguma deusa, devido ao bonito contorno do corpo bem ajustado nas roupas (ela parece estar grávida), bem como do chapéu característico.
Parabéns,
Wagner.
Bela mostra.

Ciao Ana,
piacevole composizione con gli archi che si ripetono, creando così grafismo e un ottimo DOF.
La buona gestione della luce crea anche un piacevole gioco di ombre.

TFS!

Pena a pesença dos corrimões em metal moderno, quebra um pouco a aparencia antiga do local.
Gosto da moça ao fundo, bem enquadrada, parece que vai desfilar no local.

Ciao dear Ana,
beautiful exercise of depth and management of the white, a photo difficult to do with this excellent result. Marvelous the woman's silhouette in the BG, as in a parade of fashion. Compliments!
Ciao, have a nice week!

Hello Ana,
I admire your Myanmar series including this one which is so well exposed despite the harsh sunlight with good details on the plastered arches. The characteristically dressed lady in the BG framed by the series of arches really becomes the focal point of interest. I think that is a good thing. Nice work.

Alfred

Ola Ana,
beautiful the corridor of this famous 19th century white pagoda,with the perspective and the POV to create depth in the scene.But the silver supports on the walls, are absolutely strangers to the whole environment.

Have a nice day,danos

Hello Ana,
Th white tones and the perspective are impressive. Composition is also great with just the lady joining the entrance. Very nice shot.
Best wishes,

Ola Ana,
Thanks for visiting my Spanish photos!
I'm glad to find old friends in TE - including you - having contributed numerous brilliant captures from all over the world.

I see you are still in Asia. And your pictures are as nice as ever - depicting way of living in Myanmar (it sounds like "miramar" to me;))

Let me say just a few words about this photo: perfect depth of focus and light, nice pov and composition - you are a true master af those, indeed.

Abracos,
Anton

Olà Ana

Very good balance between shades and lights.
Obrigado.

Olá Anabela, que fotos tão bonitas...Lindíssima esta perspectiva com excelente exposição nesses brancos. Os corrimãos não têem lá muito a ver mas ajudam ao efeito gráfico. Muito bem conseguida a triangulação humana lá em baixo.
