June 2021 - Hallway of Casa Batllo
About the Image(s)
The photo was taken during my trip to Barcelona, Spain in 2018. Casa Batllo was designed by the famous architect Antoni Gaudi. This one of a kind building has the unique signature of Mr Gaudi on the outside as well as inside.
I loved the softness of the reflected early morning light in the hallway.
Exposure: ISO-100, F/2.2 and 1/30 sec

First, really like the shadow and light combination, combined with the unique architectural design, is a very engaging visual display....
Technically, the F/2.2 created a shallow (Dof), as such, the photograph is not as sharp as it could have been. Notes: in situations like this, dialing in more ISO will allow the user to shoot at a smaller aperture and also perhaps a faster shutter speed; both will improve clarity and still reveal the subtle hues/tones captured within these walls. (However, depending upon how much ISO is dialed in (and the age of the camera) digital noise will add to defining the aesthetics).
The other important factor, choosing the focus-point: experimenting with different points of focus and aperture settings are vital in situations like this.
All in all, I like the crop/composition and hope to see more like these; you have a great eye for these wonderfully beautiful shapes and lines. : )

Hi Debasish
Intriguing architecture of Gaudi, that you have captured very well with that conversion in gray tones and that represents the atmosphere so well Posted: 06/22/2021 16:21:27

This is a fine shot. I am very fond of shots of empty corridors, so this resonates with me. I have never seen a Gaudi building in person, but love seeing images of them.
One question, is the overhead light from skylights or electric lights? Same question about the sidelight at the end of the corridor. Posted: 06/26/2021 09:15:11

Hi Steven, thanks for your comments. Yes, the lights are all natural from morning sun Posted: 06/26/2021 11:50:20
