Follow the Crown Photo

Photographer’s Note

When walking in thru Bratislava, most people will probably notice little golden crowns in the pavement. They identify the route that was passed by the coronation procession. For centuries Bratislava was where the Hungarian kings were crowned and today "regular" citizens can follow in their footsteps.

Hello Philipp,
Impressive BW, nice texture detail and the angle, love the crown, interesting DOF. I think the tilt shot has given much impact on the crown, very unique & powerful.

Regards,
Khalid

Hallo Philipp!
Wahrlich kein alltägliches Foto! Schon in der kleinen Version macht es neugierig und in der Großen ist es wirklich etwas Besonderes. Dieses kleine(scharfe) Emblem zieht unweigerlich erst einmal alle Blicke auf sich und lässt das Auge dann weiterwandern. Interessant - und faszinierend!
Grüße aus dem nasskalten Siegerland!

Hello Philipp

I'm very surprised this photo has not gained as much attention as it should.
Wonderful usage of the apperature.
and the composition on the angle follows the Crowns position - which is exactly the point in your note.
Very creative and thoughtful work
Well done
Craig
