The Church and the palms Photo

Photographer’s Note

Period: Sixteenth century. The convent, due to the special dedication of the Order of St. Augustine's teaching, is divided into three distinct parts: on one hand and church school and housing for the monks around a cloistered courtyard on the other. Although the monastery was founded in the late sixteenth century - the early seventeenth century, the current works of the Church for the next century (XVIII), undergoing major reforms to this end of the fourth quarter. The church has three naves, covering the central barrel vault with transverse ribs and lunettes trim highlighted by gentle curves. The standard highlights the alternating lights arches, crowned with an entablature decorated with a line followed by eggs and pearls, which rests on fluted Corinthian pilasters, attributable, according to several authors, the style of Joseph Martin of Aldehuela.

Hi Manuel.
Really a well-chosen pov, from the low. Great saturation of facade colors. The palm is a useful vertical item.
Best regards.
Bobo.

Manuel,
Your POV is nice here with the trees framing the scene nicely. The lighting and colors are great with excellent sharpness and detail. The low POV allows the trees and building to tower over the scene.
TFS,
Asa

Namaste Manuel,
a beautiful composition of this church. The distortion due to lower point of vision, I think, made it elegant. The perspective is nice here. Inclusion of the trees added a lot to it. The sharpness and light control is great here. Nice to see. Tfs. Have a great weekend.

Hola Manuel!
A very interesting and truly beautiful picture!
The vertical format and the low pov were great choices here!
Sharpness, exposure and colors are excellent!
The composition is quite attractive with those palm tree nicely placed in front of the building, hiding it partially, as wonderful adornments to the beautiful architecture of that church!
TFS - congratulations!
Best regards,
Neyvan

Hola Manuel, great use of the vertical frame here to emphasise the height 9and slight artistic distortion) or the tower and tree. The sky is beautifully exposed and the tones saturated superbly. Compliments and I wish you a good weekend, Lisa

Hola Manu,

Despues del Museo de Picasso hiciste esta foto y despues esta una tetería en esta misma calle muy acojedora, tengo una parecida pero cogiendo todas las flores de la izquierda, me gusta el contraste de colores y como no! mi Malaga!! excelente luz!
Buen trabajo!

Saludos,
Elena

Hello Manuel,

In this richly colorful scene you introduce us to Malaga. I had a colleague, a professor of Spanish, who had a house there and could not stop talking about it. It is very good to see this photograph now. I just came back from two most memorable days in Barcelona, my fourth visit, but I've never seen Malaga.

Warm regards,

Bulent

Un edificio muy bonito para fotografiar sin duda.
Esos colores en la fachada me encantan , yo creo que hubiera hecho la misma foto desde el mismo angulo.
Precisoso contrapicado Manuel .
Un cordial saludo.

Hello Manuel,
quite an unconventional composition where every vertical line is leaning due to the lens in wide angle position - but it works well! Together with your informative note it is a really interesting contribution.
Best whishes
