Hello Bev,

Up to your post I even have not heard of Panopticon. I'm not that much patient, sorry, I searched in the web and found so many interesting information about it and its designer J.Bentham. Thanks for introducing. Though I'm keenly awaiting your next post. Regarding your photo, using the wooden gate as a reference for your vantage point you've achieved a great perspective and depth. The vast open green field with lovely trees look beautiful under a clear blue sky. A great shot. Thanks for sharing. Best wishes,

Suleyman

Hello Bev,

The bucolic shot is a feast for the eyes, and the note does pique one's curiosity. Now curious minds want to know... Have a good weekend.

Warm regards,

Bulent

Hello Bev,

I took a similar shot to this in Mongolia of all places, using the wooden fence as a way to frame the fg and add depth & graphism. Good sharpness & superb colour & a nice overview of the green pastures & grazing sheep. The upward pov on the hills adds interest. Tfs!

Hello Bev,

I really didn't need to look at the photographer's name on this one - I could tell by looking at the thumbnail that it was one of yours. The colours, so natural and not overexpressed or oversaturated, the perfect exposure with a lovely sky and the excellent composition including a welcoming gate in the foreground which we see so often in your photographs.

And we can just see the panopticon up there atop the hill, perfectly placed in the frame and balancing the massy gatepost in the right foreground.

I'm looking forward to seeing a closer view of this sculpture which, of course, is a much more pleasant and artistic construction than the original Panopticon of the eighteenth century.

Beautiful!

Kind Regards,

John.

Hi Bev
and yeah...i have no idea what a Panopticon is, what ever it is it seems to be miss-spelled!

I enjoy these scenes for the fact is so clear, sharp, and the exposure levels are spot on, it just looks like a photo of elegant color and subject.
looking forward to the next post!
cheers

Hi Bev, What a splendid Pov, on this scene inviting us in to the field and a walk up the hill to see the Panopticon. Wonderful, Tfs, Have a great week ahead, Cheers Iain.

So this is what the view looks like ! I went panopticon hunting on a foul, wet, grey, foggy day and saw not a thing ! Well, just the structures themselves ! The weather at the 'whistling tubes' one was particularly grim !

But this is a fine view and very fine capture of it. Good POV, strong foreground and a lovely whisk away up to the top of the hill for the object in question, neatly framed by the curving of the twigs. Lovely colours, and oh, that sky !

kind regards
Martin
