The Pillars of the Earth sent on September 29, 2013 (22:15) by Meghisti. 15 comments, 1218 views. [retina]

at 17mm, 1/60 f/4.0, ISO 8000, hand held. Milano, Italy.

Quando oggi sono entrato nel Duomo di Milano dopo tanti anni non ho potuto non ripensare al titolo di un famoso romanzo. L'imponenza del luogo é straordinaria, impossibile non sentire soggezione e non pensare al potere che la religione, nel bene e nel male, esercita sui popoli da millenni. Ho cercato di rappresentare questa soggezzione usando un grandangolare ed un pdr che enfatizzasse le proporzioni, il viraggio in BN credo fosse d'obbligo per enfatizzare le geometrie. Spero di essere riuscito a trasmettere all'osservatore la stessa sensazione. #biancoenero #blackandwhite #abbazie

Good acceleration and nice conversion.
I just feel to say that in some areas the light of the very strong white. In those areas would have reduced the light ... but you know the b / w always poetic license allows the photographer. Bravo.

Thanks Mark, I'm fascinated by the BN and I'm studying how to interpret it to the fullest.
I'm pretty happy with the result but not entirely, for the very reason that you mentioned, I wanted to keep a strong contrast and reduce the lights made me turn to gray too :-/ I probably need to study again ;-)
Greetings

I think here you are able to convey the grandeur of the columns and the building. It often happens to me too, when I go into these huge churches (the cathedral of Milan is among the top 5 cathedrals in the world as a dimension I think), think about the wealth and pomp of the church, to history, to the intrigues and power ephemeral ( but not too obviously) man.
With regard to the realization that to say, I like the composition, contrast ... I do not know, certainly has a strong character. Burned black and white extreme. Certainly interesting, then it is also a matter of personal taste. Overall I would say that is a beautiful shot.

Comment as required in this # 2317497] thread :
The photo I like and the choice of some extremes between blacks and whites gives it a special power. Though it is not a lover of black and white, this photo is very special. The interpretation given in the caption that you can not but agree. The grandeur of these structures and their design features are sometimes just to impress the faithful and portray the solemnity of the creator. It 'a peculiarity of the major religions and their ramifications. It seems to me that the message refers to the power and influence is achieved. On the sidelines I would like to express the fact that these places are celebrating a person born in a humble stable welcomed in a bed made of straw. Contradiction is the minimor trade union that can be attributed. We feel the next. A greeting.

Thanks Stephen and Paul for voicing your opinion, I'm very glad you enjoyed click away.
On Sunday I went out with the specific intention of making this photograph, in honor of the theme of the projects that we have discussed in the thred open from Jeronim and I was curious to know your opinions.
A farewell to both :-)

Reply to thread.
You have succeeded in your aim, you feel the majesty of the structure and the beautiful b / w which helps to emphasize this size. But ... but the composition I'm not crazy and not very accurate with many elements of disorder.
Anyway great job.

Hello Meghisti. ;-)

So, if you wanted to convey a sense of grandeur, did you do it, impossible not to feel it though, the presence of a human being in the nave (too small one on the right is sitting and everyway), would have a heightened sense of grandeur as you would seen as it is small compared to the columns.
Although the vertical cuts not make me crazy, in this case it is absolutely functional purpose as well as the B / N.

In general, however, photograph the interior of a church, I'm sorry if I repeat myself, is part of what had been seen many times and at the level of planning, maybe it's a little 'bit, the photos must also leave their mark above all for their originality and This, frankly, will not let him.

Cmq I welcome the fact that you had put into the game and have thought of a project and then it has completed, I think this is the only way to improve as a photographer.

Best wishes
;-)

In response to circumvent this thread [URL =] www.juzaphoto.com/topic2.php?l=it&t=583305&show=8
Hello Fred, I think that click send unquestionably a sense of grandeur of the structure mainly due to the distortion of the wide angle. What I'm not crazy is the composition and yield of shades of bn (but this can also depend on the poor quality of the monitor from which now I'm watching!) Which, however, was, also, in my opinion, an obvious choice to emphasize how you prefiggevi.
In reviewing these issues, in my humble opinion, we can certainly realize a resulting interesting.
Greetings, Massimo

Hello Fred, I feel in tune with what was said by Paco, and add that to further emphasize the sense of awe we would have seen a good faithful to his knees with his head bowed (and perhaps would have been even less original, no?) ;-) .
As suggested by Marco Fillers, I would also lowered a little 'lights, whites are really a bit' too fired.
Hello

Hello Barbara, I realize that it is not very original but it was years since I entered the Cathedral and I took the opportunity for some shots.
I will try to lower the lights a little, by the way I have in mind a much more claustrophobic, as soon as I have some time I try to achieve it.
Thanks for the comment
Federico
