Ciao Roger,
ottimo il POV che hai scelto per fotografare questa bella chiesa.
L'inquadratura verticale, ti ha permesso di inserire oltre l'intera chiesa, anche molti dettagli di ciт che la circonda.
La sedia in primo piano sulla destra e la mancanza di elementi umani, donano a questa foto, una particolare atmosfera.

Ottimo lavoro!
Francesco

Hi Roger,
A beautiful church and its bell tower, which your photo presents very nicely. A good POV and composition with the old bridge included in the foreground and the mountain in the background. The vertical format is great here. Good and natural colours, excellent clarity, depth and sharpness. Bravo!
Greetings, Lasse

Royaldevon (85862) 2008-09-14 11:39

Hello Roger,

What a good pov you have chosen.
The narrow, textured bridge takes the viewer over the gap to this beautiful, old church, snuggling under the protection of the steep hilside.
The angled view allows us to appreciate the depth as well as the design of the building.
I very well composed shot.

Kind regards,
Bev :-)

Ciao Roger,
Sono stato a Girona tanti anni fa, ma solo in cittа, e non ho visto questa stupenda e antica chiesa in stile romanico. Mi piace il contrasto tra la linea verticale del campanile e la linea obliqua della montagna. Ottima definizione dei particolari, complimenti.
Ciao e buona settimana
Paolo

Dag Roger,

De kerk met een mooie Spaanse stijl, schitterend gefotografeerd met een goede kwaliteit.
De kleine toegangsbrug leid ons naar de kerk, met de mooie bergen in de achtergrond.
Goede samenstelling en presentatie. Bedankt.

Prettige dag verder,
John.

Eccellente il dettgalio del ponte e della chiesa con interessante resa grafica. Gradevoli i colori e il contrasto con lo sfondo montano in diagonale.

Bonjour Roger,

La prise de vue permet de voir deux facades de l'йglise est un atout а la composition. Les dйtails et les couleurs de son architecture sont clairs et prйcis. le sujet est bien cadrй. La luminositй rehausse les couleurs et leur donne un bon contraste. Bonne journйe.

hello roger, like how the little church is nestled under the steep cliffs and the different colours and shapes to the church, a good idea to include the foot bridge

Bonjour Roger,
Tu nous dis que Beget est un petit village... leur papagolfade locale est en tout cas assez imposante!
La personne que tu as inclue dans ta composition permet vraiment de s'en rendre compte.
Elle est bien bell eet le petit chemin du pierre qui y mиne est plein de charme.
Cordialement,
Marianne

Docarmo (9767) 2008-09-16 9:29

Bonjour Roger,
Belle prise de vue, la diagonale en arriиre-plan fait un bon effet. L'йglise a une architecture qui semble solide а traverser les siиcles. Le format vertical la rend plus imposante. La chaise suggиre une ambiance accueillante.
Bon travail,
MCV

Bonjour, Roger. Belle architecture et bonne construction d'image. Tu as bien placй le pont pour mener le regard vers l'йglise qui se dйtache sur la foret et le ciel. Par contre, le ciel me plaоt un peu moins et j'ai l'impression qu'il est fabriquй.
Bonne soirйe,
Philippe

Waylim (25436) 2008-09-16 19:02

Roger,
Very nice and lovely village, the church is very charming and cozy. Very small town kind of charm, good to be in a painting. Lovely bridge and good details on the stones. Very nice color and light and good composition.

Bonjour Roger.
Cette йglise, comme souvent les йglises romanes, a des proportions des plus justes et une facture des plus sobres.
Ta photo met cet йdifice bien en valeur. Je suis allй sur Via Michelin et voici ce qu'il dit de cette йglise "L'йglise, de style roman (10e et 12e s.), est un vrai bijou architectural : une abside semi-circulaire, ornйe d'arcatures lombardes, et un йlйgant clocher а quatre йtages. А l'intйrieur, est exposй un magnifique Christ en majestй (12e s.)., sculpture toute en longueur et de style rйaliste."
Amicalement
Jacques

emjleclercq (15778) 2008-09-16 23:37

Trйs jolie composition avec le petit pont de pierre et la vielle йglise. Je prйfиre nйanmoins la couleur plus chaude de l'йglise, avec son superbe clocher, а la pierre plus grise du pont.

Bien cordialement,

Emmanuel

danyy (0) 2008-09-16 23:38

Bonjour Roger,
si les couleurs de la pierre et des vйgйtations me plait beaucoup et semble trиs naturel, il en va autrement pour le ciel dont la teinte mes semble bizarre.
Photo nette et bien exposйe au niveau de l'avant plan.
Un bon choix de format et de cadrage.
Amitiй de Liиge.
Daniel.

trekks (14348) 2008-09-17 0:00

hi Roger

Wonderful view of this church set against the mountain backdrop. I like the stone bridge and the stone-finish look of the church with its texture contrasting so strongly with the greenery and giving it a style of history. Good composed shot.

tfs, bill

Bonjour Roger,

c'est ce que j'aimerais voir, batir ou photographier. L'image romantique et le coin qui ouvre les bras. La palette est seduisante et je constate avec plaisir que je viens de passer quelques agreables moments dans ta galerie. Grand merci, ami,

Branko

clio (27961) 2008-09-17 5:34

Bonjour Roger,
Le patrimoine roman de la Catalogne est vraiment unique et en voilа une nouvelle preuve!
Dommage de ne pas avoir eu un petit rayon de soleil, mais tu t'en sors bien en jouant sur l'austйritй avec ce cadrage vertical qui intиgre l'йglise dans cet univers montagneux.
La belle couleur de la pierre ressort bien avec le vert derriиre.
Bravo et merci de cette visite!
Amicalement

This an absolutely perfect composition. I sure that there is no better POV than this. The light and colours are excellent and the vertical format is perfect here. TFS and have a nice evening!

Cheers,

mark_mk (266) 2008-09-18 11:20

Hi Roger,
this one`s very nice, the vertical fromat works very well here, the colors, sharpness are eprfect and the composition is lovely. You know what I would have done (something that`s not allowed on TE ;-)), I would have cloned the signs out, but that`S the only thing I would have changed. It`s truly a great image, very nice!

Take care
Mark

Salut Roger,

Very interesting architecture. Especially its location at the foot of green ridges are gives some clues about history. Excellent details of textures on facade created by terracotta bricks and same also on roof tiles. Your cleverly fixed POV increase depth with small bridge there. Perfect addition of lonely visitor is helping us to scale your frame correctly. Congratulations. Have a nice week end.

Bonjour Roger,
You always discover new things, I've been several times in the village of Camprodon (excellent biscuits and sausages!), but I've never seen this splendid church, so I take good note to go there next time I travel to that area. Thanks for making me discover new places of my own country! :)
Have a nice weekend

Angshu (56760) 2008-09-21 20:39

Hello Roger
These churches are similar to what we see in eastern parts of Europe. The vertical format is fine for this shot with the interesting bell tower. The tiles add a nice splash of red colour here & the man offers good idea of scale. Well done!

Trиs forte ambiance, trиs belle rйalisation, mкme si je me demande si la chaise avait vraiment sa place dans le cadre.
Ce sont les textures qui donnent sa force а la compo. Et la sorte de dйsaturation qi l'amplifie. Trиs sympa.
