Ceramic from Naboo Photo

Photographer’s Note

A detail of the fascinating and distinctive ceramic work of Sevilla. Ramps and ornaments are found everywhere around Plaza de España

In 1929 Sevilla hosted the Spanish-American Exhibition and numerous buildings were constructed for the exhibition in Maria Luisa Park, among them the Plaza designed by Aníbal González.

This location is used as a setting for Naboo in Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones, though it was digitally modified.

Hi André, what a good picture, truer than true, this ornament is almost going out of my PC, escaping from sreen ! DOF is tremendous here and excellent to guess the opposite ramp and the church blured
A great work André, i love it

Andre,

I like the composition of this shot with the ceramic pillar in focus and the buildings behind it out of focus. Doing this provides a nice background while allowing the ceramic piece to be the center of attention. The beautiful colors compliment that bright andalucian sunlight.

regards,
Rob

Salut André,
Tu as fort bien mis en valeur ce beau détail coloré avec une très bonne profondeur de champ. La lumière est aussi très bonne.
Amicalement,
Fabrice

Salut a toi jeune Padawan migrateur !
Je vois que fidele a ton profil materiel tu as su rester du cote lumineux de la Force et eviter d'avoir recours a ces artifices nikoncapturiens si faciles tel l'infame D-Lighting...
Un beau detail d'architecture aux couleurs vibrantes et un bokeh subtil pour le faire ressortir en preservant la forme de l'arriere plan, pour moi ca marche bien Cousin !
Bon dimanche,

Salut Andre,
La texture de la ceramique ressort bien a l ecran ainsi que les couleurs naturellement bien rendues. J aime bien l effet flou du palace a l arriere plan. Belle lumiere et joli ciel bleu.
Amicalement,
Marilyn

Colores de ensueño!

Hi Andre. I like the juxtaposition of the ceramic and the background building and the colours are super, but I feel that a step back to give a slightly wider view would be good and require less straightening of verticals. A good idea but I think you could do better with another visit.

Hi Andre.

My compliments! This impressive view of the "Naboo" art is lovely... :P

How you focused the ceramic pillar and left us this backgroud is a nice idea. (Why didn't I think in something like this???)

My compliments my friend!

Rgs, Oscar

Very beautiful Andre. Didn't knew Sevilla had such exquisitive palace with ceramic details as beautiful as these. I like your take of this. The oof building, keeping the viewer concentrated in the large pot was a good choice. Lovely polarized sky! Very good indeed!
PS: I can't believe you were so close to Portugal and you didn't come to visit us!!!
