Quiet Evening, a photo from Kralovehradecky, Bohemia

Photographer's Note

Entrance gate to the château in Nové Město nad Metují.

I wish it was a quiet evening, but it was not. One who never tried to take pictures in company of a three years old child cannot understand.
I dedicate this picture to my beloved mother who patiently tried to distract the boys attention from my camera and tripod.

good evening Romana
I like the mood in this simple shot afforded by the blue color on the house and emphasized by the 2 yellow lanterns
Have a nice sunday and my best wishes for 2013

Hi Romana,
The lights are the best effect in the blue night. A beautiful historic façade with a symmetrical framing appropriate. The qulité is very good.
Good night
Best regards

Hello Romana,
I love this picture with its moody colours. It is very sharp and even the lights are reflected well on the cobbled ground. Your close framing and symmetry suits this lovely subject.
Best wishes for 2013.
Ann

Hello Romana,

You're capturing well this architecture by a good angle and excellent tone/clarity, so it's interesting and impressive to see old historical château with the atmosphere which settles down and is dignified. It's effective for partial lights, too. Elegant photograph with very tasteful colors!

Kind regards,
mikio

Hello Romana,
Very nice nocturnal capture of this beautiful Bohemian castle.
Interesting to see that new windows were been added to the fassade, somewhere without taking care for the symmetry !
TFS and have a nice weekend
Best regards

Hello Romana
Many thanks to your mother and to your tripod for the sharp details!
That blue depiction beautifully zested of warm spots here and there is quite suggestive of a backdrop for a Jack the Ripper movie shooting!
Compliments for having avoided overexposure on entrance lights and bravo for the intense mood!
Cheers.
Robert
