, 1/500 f/5.6, ISO 100, hand held. Beijing (Pechino), China.

Credo che la cosa più brutta che possa capitare, quando si ha in mano una macchina fotografica, è quella di trovarsi in un posto "unico" al mondo e di non essere in grado di effettuare qualche scatto "decente" per via delle avverse condizioni atmosferiche. La "cappa" di foschia, dovuta al forte inquinamento atmosferico, che incombe su Pechino, e su tutta la Cina in generale, non ha risparmiato la "grande muraglia" per cui è quasi impossibile riprendere immagini che abbiano una sufficiente nitidezza e che possano, nel contempo, "godere" di una certa originalità. Per quanto mi riguarda, poi, volendo anche cercare la "mia" nota di colore, ho pensato che l'unico modo per "colorare" un muro grigio con lo sfondo di un cielo grigio era quello di "affidarmi" ai colori... degli abiti delle persone. Questo mio scatto che, malgrado tutta la mia buona volontà, non sono riuscito a "rendere" in modo migliore, vuole solo essere il ricordo di una indimenticabile giornata trascorsa in un luogo... "incantato"!

Great Paul!
From that it is not so bad, I like it and then you do not have to put up in the composition, for what you believe, is a characteristic inrinunciabile.
The colors!
Congratulations, a dear greeting

Dear Flavio,
not only can, all right, but you're also right! :-D
I was, however, almost forced to "enhance" a little of everything to try to alleviate the annoying veil of mist in the caption of which I speak then, since they are not capable, it is easy that I "messed up" ... a little! ;-)
is still a nice travel document indelible
... this is what we want to be! :-P
Thank you so much presence and precious ... tips! ;-)
Good night,
Paul

Hello dear Paul!
Quoto full commentary by Flavio ;-)
In fact a bit 'too much color there is in my opinion, particularly on the very bluish background:-D but you first considers this shot a good memory and then .... nothing to add about that.
You know you are sincere ... not even the composition convince me at all: the wall in the foreground, IMHO, it blocks the vision and the people at the bottom left "cut" are not very aesthetic.
Maybe because I expect more from you! 8-)
I know I've already forgiven! :-D
Greetings! :-)
Michela

PS: the "I Like" is for transparency and sincerity of purpose.

Hello Michael,
Meanwhile, I'm delighted of your passage and comment very blunt and, in my opinion, "constructive"! ;-)
As for the "bluish" I have already explained the background to what is due and I can not, in any way, to be able to even think about a "possible" correction! :-(
The same applies to the "too much" color: just "messing" (surely anyone would be able to do better than me) a little so I could make a little bit of sharpness more than the files 'original' completely ... "Flat"!
As for the composition, the wall in the foreground I wanted affixed to create a kind of "jump" to the area below and, therefore, to give a bit of "motion" between the different floors (Thuvandomi also the effect of blur), so if you do not like it, I will be doubly ... "Guilty"! :-D
I agree with you that the people at the bottom "cut" are not very aesthetic but, unfortunately, they were ... "Inevitable"! :-( In the sense that there was such a "concentration" of people who, if I wanted to wait to have the corner "free", I would be ... still there:-D
It 'obvious that there is nothing to forgive, God forbid, and I'm very pleased that you have expressed, with the frankness that marks you, your opinion! :-P
At this point, however, I "autocito"
just wants to be the memory of a memorable day at a place ... "Enchanted"
... and you should also remember (I talked to you long ago in MP) because they are so ì "linked" to this special day and understand, then, why I decided to post this just "mediocre" picture!
Best wishes and see you soon,
Paul

Thank you understood my intentions and for giving me so much ... but intelligently responded to what I had no doubt. 8-)
A hug!

and as far as I'm concerned a good memory, perfectly composed, and that not only has the flavor of the souvenir from the family album, but it is certainly something more. Paul Bravo.

Dear Claudio,
your beautiful comment on this photo of me makes me particularly happy because I knew that it was not an image "easy", also aware of the "limits" technical (especially with regard to PP) of the same! :-)
And I am especially glad that you liked the composition because it is the only "thing" that I was counting on to give some interest to the picture! ;-)
To which my thanks are worth "at least" the ... double! :-D
Best wishes,
Paul

Paul is a pleasure, I add that due to the bluish haze at the bottom does not bother me at all and it is not unusual to see it in the pictures of the Great Wall, because of the difficult environmental conditions. Finally, the composition of which sees a kind of "S" part of the wall at the bottom right to top left and ends with his load of colorful figures do not mind at all (except perhaps for a drastic cut too much of the first floor to the left ) and indeed to me very reminiscent of some images of Michael Yamashita, great photographer of the "National", which has signed more than one article on the subject in that magazine. Of course, without presumptions but documentative artistic, reportage. Yamashita (but of course you already know), author of gorgeous photo books also on Marco Polo and Zheng He of China. If you do not have these volumes in the library, I recommend them highly. Claudio

Thanks again Claudio, very kind! :-P
Yamashita know in name only, it means it is a good opportunity to get hold of the books I've recommended! :-)
Regards, Paul
