Famine Memorial Photo

Photographer’s Note

This is a photo taken of the Famine memorial down on the quays. I always find it an interesting site. I think the colours on the day were very good, between the statues and the trees in the background.

I've also posted a B&W workshop, to compare, since the sky was so dull.

Uhu, wodigori has marked this note useful

Hi Paul,
I like these statues very much they portray a special message. I like both your B&W and colour versions. The trees and sky add interest to the photo. Thank you for sharing.
Cheers,
Debbie

A good point of view for your photo. It could be improve by Post processing introducing some highlights and contrast to the picture.

It would help a lot if you would put the country and the city from where you took the picture.

Hi Paul
B&W is even more dramatic!
I like both of them, the frontal POV is good, we can have a better idea of this memorial.
TFS - Saludos, Paula.

Hi Paul. Kind of a sad picture, and I think the B&W suits the subject a little better. Increasing the contrast would make them stand out a little better, but its otherwise a nice picture.
