Chiesa di San Michele, a photo from Perugia, Umbria

Photographer's Note

Church of San Michele - Beroide Spoleto
The bell tower of the parish church of San Michele uses, to date, as a bell tower of the polygonal apse of the original church.
Inside there are some frescoes, noteworthy, dating from the second half of '400; it is not a pictorial cycle unit, but devotees of frescoes made by the commission probably the most prominent people of the country to painters, some noteworthy, for graces received.

Hello Silvio,
A fine capture of this lovely old church. The red poppies amidst the grass make a beautiful frame. A very pleasantly illuminated image with excellent colours and clarity. I wish you an enjoyable Sunday afternoon.

J'aime beaucoup le cadrage vertical. Les beaux coquelicots ouvrent bien l'image qui se poursuit avec bonheur avec cette belle petite église dans son écrin de verdure.

Bon dimanche

Hello Silvio,
You were well awarded for looking for a good POV. The poppies and the high grass have given you a wonderful foreground. Even a beautiful medieval bell tower like this needs some complementary colours.
Very well done.
Kind regards,
Gert

Ciao Caro Silvio,

Wild poppies make a colourful addition to a spring or summer scene, re-establishing the continuity of the seasons. They haven't opened in my locality yet but I always look forward to their flowering.
You have prefaced the bell tower with a charming, natural scene, which gives interest throughout the photograph. The colours are good and the details sharp.

My warm regards,
Bev :-)

Ciao Silvio! Wonderful poppies. Amazing church. Fantastic belfry. Good low point of view. Very good vertical format. Superb exposure. Fine focus effect. Well done!

ChrisJ (144203) 2015-05-04 4:28

Hello Silvio,

The fg red and yellow flower set up a good warm cold color contrast against the bg blue sky. Good sharpness throughout with an informative note. The bg church makes an excellent focal point. The bell within the belltower adds a graphic element. Tfs.

Beautiful and colorful scene! Are those poppies growing in the wild? They make for a good foreground for this church. Good lighting and nice details. Well done, tfs.

Howdy Silvio,

Excellent view of San Michele, the wildflowers foreground, the gothic textured rock construction, and the dominate octagon bell tower with long arch windows.
And I would enjoy seeing the historical frescoes and surrounding architecture, etc.

Thanks for sharing,
Cheers,
Ray

Ciao, Silvio,
Ohh, I see you have real summer landscape, with so rough vegetation. We have got similar grass in July only ))
Simple but very nice rural scene. I just miss the summer after your post.

Best wishes,
Serghei

Ciao Silvio,
una composizione equilibrata, effettiva e deliziosa. Hai combinato i due soggetti in maniera interessante e gradevole, tutti e due sono nitidi e hanno ritenuto tutte le qualita' che li rendono attraenti e speciali. Mi piace particolarmente il modo in qui hai moderato o esaltato i colori, l' utilizzazione del flash fu' un' ottima idea. Complimenti e grazie!
Tanti saluti e buona serata,
Ourania
