Coliseo, a photo from Rome, Lazio

Photographer's Note

This picture was taken using HP5 (black and white film) and then cropped and burned in the darkroom. Lastly, I gave it its sepia tone in the computer after digitalisation.

hi Marcelo,
this photo looks like a carte postale of the 19th century!
very well composed, perfect contrast and this pal sepia tone gives a tone of nostalgy...
wellcome to TE!

Marcelo, I agree with Cherubin, this photo REALLY looks like a XIX-th century painting - isn't it?! Wow, great job, if it's you!

I am speechless. So much so that the day you wish to sell a print of this shot, I will be the first person to buy it. Brilliant.

This looks like an antique piece of art. I would like to see it cropped just a bit tighter on the top to remove the larger, softer leaves, but even with those left in, it is simply stunning!

Hey Marelo,

this is a nice one. I like the sepaia efect. you did good work with the digitial tools. however, i somehow miss a bit the roughness of the picture surface. i think some noise would actually give it more intense impact. however, this might be just my crazy wish.

Hello Marcelo,
an uncommon POV of our Coliseum, very good composition.
I like both the coliseum POV, the trees around and the sky pattern.
I have taken a quick look at your photo collection and this is one of the best, in my opinion.

Regards,
Alberto.

Nice antique style and a different POV of this monument.

Great photo...I love the understated sepia tone, the detail makes it look almost like a HDR shot. There are a few spots and glitches you can see against the sky...why not remove them in photoshop?
