Church of love! Photo

Photographer’s Note

Not far away from Evora stay's the city of Montemor-o-novo. Alovely city with intersting architecture and and the ruins of one of the biggest castels of Portugal. At the center of the city you found this lovely church: Igreja do Cavalho. This is wholly restored, but still remaining from the 17th century are the carved wooden side altars, the "dressing room" and the crucifix. At present the church serves as a home to the altar piece from the Ermida de St. Pedro.

Specialy the little hart at the top catch our eye!
I use a polarizer at is max and that's the reason of the deepblue sky

Hello Kik!
That's a lovely, pleasant and beautiful picture!
Sharpness, exposure and natural colors are excellent!
The vertical format and the pov were great choices here! The composition was simple but pretty effective with attractive visual results!
Best regards,
Neyvan

Hi KIKs,
The whites of the church and clouds are truly beautiful, pure and luminous! I also like clouds rendered softly and the church with fine sharpness. Wonderful definition.

Hi kik, the architecture when combined with the sky forms a lovely and a very dramatic scene. I love the hues and the way this one has been handled and composed

Bonjour Kiks.
Cette photo est superbe et le filtre polarisant a fait du très bon travail sur le ciel et sur la façade. Tout est lumineux et très agréable.
Bon week-end !

ciao Kik,
una splendida resa cromatica con la bianca facciata che si staglia contro il blu del cielo.
Ottima la definizione e la gestione della luce,
buona notte
