Thank you..., a photo from Wielkopolskie, West

Photographer's Note

Aga for the memories :-) My visit to Poznan was excellent. I got a chance to see a city with lots of history and architectural beauty. Also I met with Aga and we spent a full day visiting the city oldest sections but unfortunately Michal wasn't there :-( Hopefully next time! If you are ever in Poznan please get in touch with Aga. She provided me a lot of information regarding the city. She is a lot of fun!
Here is some info regarding the the Cytadela, a place you need to see if in Poznan:
The Battle of Poznań during World War II in 1945 was a massive assault by the Soviet Union's Red Army that had as its objective the elimination of the German garrison in the fortification city of Poznań, occupied Poland. The defeat of the German garrison required almost an entire month of painstaking reduction of fortified positions, intense urban combat, and a final assault on the city's citadel by the Red Army, complete with medieval touches. Enjoy :-)

Hi Roberto
buena perspective en esta foto. me gusta la dinamica de los bordes de los canteros. La imagen tiene buenos colores, parece un poco oscura, pero muy buena vista de todas formas
Saludos

Hello Roberto,

Nice use of lines in the terraced park!
Strong lead-in and fine repetition effect, attractive colours and sharp details...
I notice the lovely sky, where the white fluffy clouds are well exposed!

Greetings,

Hola Roberto.

Veo pues que tu periplo por Polonia estuvo genial...me alegro, me alegro. La verdad es que los TE-meetings son lo mejor de TE. Yo he hecho varios y siempre estбn bien.

A lo que iba...bonita foto con grandes, grandes coloures. Ademбs, el blanco del suelo nos lleva hacia adentro y, por tanto, es un bonito efecto.

Un saludo, Oscar

Fis2 (171937) 2008-06-01 12:46

Witaj Roberto!
Your photo is interesting. Cytadela of Poznan is curious. I like the composition and verticale frame. Super colors and wonderful sky.
Regards
Krzysztof

Greg1949 (9011) 2008-06-01 19:01

Roberto, fine shot great sentiment in the note. Meeting local TE members is always a great plus and I am sure you got to see more than a tourist has any hope of seeing. The insight into the local area and the fresh look at it make a powerful combination. Great capture.

Greg

gunbud (34066) 2008-06-01 21:15

Hi Robert,
Beautiful circular lines bring great depth to this lovely vertical presentation that is blessed with clear crisp contrasting colors and excellent sharp details. The blue and white sky makes the perfect backdrop for this lovely image.
Regards, Tom

Hi Roberto,

Nelu_Goia (3116) 2008-06-01 22:25

Welcome home,Roberto!
I bet you have a whole "bag" of photos to share after the trip:)
I see the "Lab maneuver" in this one which conferred it the rich colors.
Usually I`m not a fan of the "half-half" photos,except for reflections but in this case it might work because both the sky and the lower part of the photo are very interesting.
I see there green grass and real trees,with leaves:)
Thanks and have a good night!
Nelu

aadilj (18102) 2008-06-01 22:42

Lovely skies and superb patterns of the clouds dominate this one. I like the composition and the way you have used the depth to create this composition. Great work. I'll return to it since I really like it. Very well composed with so much serenity.

anducina (8407) 2008-06-02 5:08

Hi Roberto,
Excellent geometry, with those curves, great vivid colors. I like the blue sky, the green trees and the dark-red flowers. Well seen and framed.

TFS,
Andreea

edytungkal (4551) 2008-06-02 23:34

A nice picture from Poland, a country with so many historic buildings. I like on using the curve from the left and nice combined with clear blue sky, maybe just a little bit too dark but over all it is a well perspective. Thanks Rob...

thank you Roberto to remember us on that periode,

fotomek (920) 2008-06-04 5:42

lucky you, Roberto, you have already had this opportunity to meet Aga, the lady I've been in virtual touch with for a long time, yet - although temporarily living just a hundred miles away from Poznan - up to now I have not made it :)
the photo looks nice, you obviously hesitated whether to show 2/3 of the ground and 1/3 of the sky or on the opposite.. finally you decided to cut the view into 2 halves :) not bad idea either!
TFS & best regards - Tomasz

Henryk_Bilor (20803) 2008-06-04 10:35

Hi Roberto
Tha photograph without Aga isn`t as good as it could be with her... I regret that I couldn`t meet with you, unfortunatelly I have even not enough time for TE...
Nice composition with these curved lines leading to the trees. Lovely sky in the background.
Regards

Hola Roberto,
I have been looking forward to your photos from Poland. Your opener is a real stunner. I've seldom seen a composition of such of variety of luxurious curves; the flower bed borders, the tree-tops anf the clouds. As always the color and detail is sumptious. Sounds like you had a great trip!!
HLJ, Pat

emka (158826) 2008-06-06 23:19

Hi Roberto,

Nice photo of the citadel. Beautiful colours and nice composition. Next Saturday we will have a small TE-meeting in Poznań. Aga and Michal will be there, of course, and Fis2 and Gustaw are also coming. I expect to have there a lot of fun and I am looking forward to it.
Have a nice weekend
