Cze Bebehookerko!
Coz, skan jaki jest kazdy widzi, gdybys robila cyfrakiem, mialabys pewnie ostrzejszy efekt, ale zle nie jest, wiec usmiech od ucha do ucha.
Pozdro!

Cześć Nika!
Piękne drzwi. Świetna symetria. Podoba mi się blask bijący od aureol na głowach świętych.
Pozdrawiam,
Wojtek

Czolem Nika!
Fotografia prosta jak drut, ale ma swoj styl, swoja sile, piekne drzwi, piekny kolor, dobra ostrosc. Jakosc skanu moim skromnym zdaniem przyzwoita.
Pozdrawiam.

Hi Nika,

Amazing display of various cross designs. I have never seen so many different crosses in one place. And very curiously the Aten symbol which was used first by Egyptian pharoh Akhenaten, ranking Aten above all other gods. This symbol represents the life giving sun and was inscribed on many of his architectural items. His wife Nefertiti's famous bust statue is in the Berlin Museum, and he was probably the father of Tutankhamun.

Thanks for sharing,
Ray

Szanowna koleżanka ze swoją niebieską ramką wybija się z tłumu...
Widać, że skan, ale fajowe detale...

Nika,
The vivid details are really interesting. Colours settings and sharpness are excellent to show to all us the Beautiful art.

pablominto (41690) 2009-10-17 22:28

Hello Nika,

There is no doubt - these doors must lead to a house of worship..!
The metal relief work is standing out with the religious symbols, and it seems to me it is made in a combination of brass and copper...
Well framed image, good details!

Greetings,
Pablo -

macondo (13345) 2009-10-18 3:52

Hello Nika.
Your gallery of Polish churches is exquisite. This close-up is beautiful. The colours are so lovely and your picture has excellent sharp detail to enable us to see the pictorial work on it - it looks like brass. I presume you are using film (Kodak 400) and scanning prints. In that case you do a very good job. Nicely framed, too!
Regards,
Andrew

paololg (14551) 2009-10-18 13:53

Ciao cara Nika,

Ciao, have a beautiful week!

AKITA (5683) 2009-11-10 16:02

dear Nika,
maybe you find one origin of human arts,
graphical decorations and religious figures are really that,
in my feeling it is timeless art work, it combines old designer and us in your shot.
thank you,
Akihisa

Czesc Nika! Nie ma co, podobaja sie te drzwi, niezle kontrastuje z nimi tandentna wykladzina dywanowa. Dobra ostrosc. Klaniam sie!

bosskokoss (2080) 2009-11-20 12:55

Witaj Nika. Drzwi jak drzwi, fotka prosta jak precel,
ale coś w sobie ma. No i skoro podobają Ci się te niebieskie ramki to dobrze, nie czepiam się. Fakt, że to Cię od razu wyróżnia to prawda (zero złośliwości
z mojej strony!). Coraz lepsze są Twoje fotki i bardzo
dobrze, oby tak dalej. Pozdrawiam Piotr.

macjake (2749) 2009-11-22 8:58

Hi Nika

you have so many photos of Churches from Poland, i enjoy it very much as its very educational.
This door is worth of being photographed, with its details and rust coloured bronze look, mixed with black and gold.
nice work
thanks
have a relaxing Sunday
Craig

This is a hooly door fully ornamented. Likewise the cherry colour with the centered figures goes far beyond the common ones. At that time the craftmen were notably well doted. warm regards. Domingos
