November 2024 - Glass roof
About the Image(s)
Technical: 1/320, f8,0, ISO 400 at 12 mm (FF)
Every year it is possible to visit the Royals Greenhouse in Brussels (for you: https://www.monarchie.be/en/heritage/royal-greenhouses-in-laeken). Last year I had the opportunity to go and I like the glass roof.
I tried to take a symmetrical picture (important for such image), but I need to apply some corrections (transformation and cropping) …. I increased the light, the white, the texture and the clarity. B&W in LR, and ? auto ?.

Very strong darks to light with shapes and lines that draw attention. It almost feels like it would work better as a vertical.
I might crop less from the right to include the full curve or blacken the right side corners as they tend to pull the eye. Posted: 11/08/2024 21:28:20

This is a wonderful shot that is very hard to get right, so you have done right. The control is spot on and the tones are just right. Only work in black and white. love it. Posted: 11/11/2024 11:20:40
Thanks Paul. You are right. We need to be right when to take the picture, as it is difficult to correct it. Posted: 11/18/2024 16:39:52
This design works well as both a vertical or a horizontal. As a vertical, the dark, larger supports serve as an anchor, but as a horizontal I would like to see them removed. That way my eye is just focused on the design. It appears as an architectural drawing. Very intriguing. Posted: 11/16/2024 18:36:55
I find this image very intriguing as I find myself going in and out of the image. Very dramatic and well done. I love it. Posted: 11/17/2024 19:53:54
Strong image. I think it works as a vertical as well. I love the graphic lines. Posted: 11/17/2024 21:16:55
I took the picture horizontally, and didn't think to rotate it. I will try. Thanks Diane. Posted: 11/18/2024 16:38:38
