Yellow Crane Pagoda - Bridge Photo

Photographer’s Note

Yellow Cranes Pagoda is in Wuhan, a city of 7 million people in central eastern China on the north bank of the Yangzi. This is in Wuchang on the south bank. A rare glimpse of some blue sky, after a 2 week absence.

Great pov Chris, and I love the colours, especially that patch of vibrant green constrasting with the warmer colours under the lovely light. I'd just have liked to have seen the full reflection of the little bridge.

hi chris, a nice shot here - the bridge looks like an eye with that reflection; nice

I love the reflection of the bridge. It looks better than the real one. Interesting textural effect giving that mystic feeling. I guess the colours helps in this too. Nice capture!

Hi Chris,
Nice view, I like here the good upwards perspective and the good framing (just a bit too tight at the bottom), the reflection is the perfectly calm water is lovely.
Have a nice day,
Jean-Yves

Interesting scene from the park, Chris - very colorful and a lot of nice decorative details to be discovered upon closer looking. Good graphicality added by the pagoda roofs and the small stone bridge at the bottom left.

Very interesting and colorful photo. I'd like to take a closer look at the reliefs behind the bridge. Very good job Chris. Thanks for sharing...

I have been there a few years ago, but ubfortunately I don't find the pictures, so thanks for this one, Chris.
It's amazing that Wuhan, a city that nobody heard of, is a 7 million people city, and there are so many of them in China.
A nice view from below, and a very impresive pagoda, though maybe you could do better with the scan. anyway, nice shot.

Truly a wonderful light you got on this fine capture - I like the DOF and the reflections of the bridge - nice little place with a population larger then the Danish - thanks Chris a fine job.

Bonjour Chris,
Je ne pouvais pas laisser passer cette superbe prise de vue.
Un véritable décor de théâtre vivant !
Très bon cadrage avec ces pagodes toujours aussi intéressantes au point de vue architecture. Le reflet est parfait du petit pont.
I like it a lot !
Philippe

Great!
in fact your mean is that,in the region because of a cloudy weather,they had not a blue sky for two week?Yes?(oh! my poor english!sorry)!
anyway,...Chris!
The variety of the trees is a nice elements in the place,with difference colors,which are attractive in combination of the buildings and bridge and the wall with draws,...the eye form of the bridge which made with its reflection is a nice curved form/line in the shot,and it shows itself strongly,also the symbolic building on the hill is another strong factor here,and all very well composed in this great POV,Chris,I like it,Thanks.
Yours
M
