Church, a photo from Prahova, East

Photographer's Note

Cheia Monastery, a Romanian monastery for monks dedicated to the Holy Trinity, is located on the right bank of Tâmpa Creek, southeast of Cheia, Prahova County. First attested in 1770, it was destroyed by the Ottomans, then ravaged by fire. The current church was built of stone between 1835 and 1839 and painted by Gheorghe Tattarescu in 1837. (wikipedia)

Ciao Marian
i miei complimenti per questa spendida foto che rende onore alla bellezza della chiesa m ettendone in risalto l'armoniosa architettura.
Hai scelto uno splendido momento per fotografarla e la neve contribuisce alla suggestione.
L'ottima nitidezza poi rende tutto più luminoso e gradevole.
Bravissimo
Ciuao e buon fine settimana
Romano

Bonjour Marian,

J'aime beaucoup la luminosité qui frappe la façade de l'église de plein fouet. J'aime cette architecture très représentative de l'endroit. Le cadrage est classique mais efficace.

Amicalement

Hi Marian,
Great light and contrast here, it looks like the shot was taken right before the sunset; the snow looks very complimentary on the black church roof, as well. Exposure is amazingly good considering so much white color in the image!
Congrats and all the best!
Jenna

Hi Marian,

The subject is well framed. The point of view is showing a double perspective of the architectuire of the monastery. The good luminosity is bringing out the colors. Have a nice day.

Hello Marian,

I like this architecture and you have presented it very well in a well chosen POV. The well managed light enhances the colors and gives good sharpness. The almost ready to fall snow patches on the roof adds to the composition.

Best regards

Jacques

Hi Marian,
beautiful and very unique architecture. I like the round towers I have never seen anything similar before.
You caught it in a great light and the snow adds an attractive decorative element.
Very well done,
