Church of Santos Juanes Photo

Photographer’s Note

THERE IS A STORY about this monument, but knew that I would like. Tradition has it that centuries ago, men who lived in the mountain regions of the (interior of the province of Valencia) went down with their children to Valencia.
Coming to market that was established around the auction and asked him if his children saw what they had at the peak of the stork sculpture is at the top of the church of Saints John (which is only some keys).
The children were distracted by looking at which time aprobechaban parents to abandon their child and go home (almost like the story of Tom Thumb).
The lost children were then collected by traders from the areas, which gave them food and shelter in exchange for their work. Once past few years, when children had already learned a trade, the father returned and took them to the people.
Thus the child has learned a trade, the father does not cost anything and the dealer had a job for free.

I hope you've liked the story, and if you want to see this church, which is in front of the auction, I would like to remember and mirarais to the top of this church.

Church of Santos Juanes.
It is a church located in the city of Valencia, opposite the Lonja de la Seda, and next to the Mercado Central, built over an ancient mosque in 1240 and the Gothic style.

Hola Luis.
Realmente una precioso edificio muy bien recreado en tu captura, muy bien iluminada y muy bien rellenada la esquina superior con esas preciosas ramas de arbol, ademas en flor. La farola tambien luce su bonito diseño, solo me sobra la placa de direccion prohibida, siempre las ponen donde mas molestan a la estetica de las fotos de los turistas ó nativos.
Saludos.
Luis.

Hello Luis
wow this is a beautiful view of this monument. I like the POV you chose, with the trees to almost frame the church. Even the long queue of cars is nice and add some colors to the bottom of this frame. Perfect sharpness and color saturation, well done!
have a nice day,
Rikk

Hola Luis,
Nice capture of bright sunlight in Valencia, beautiful color with nice luminous impression. It seems to be much clearer when reducing the purple fringe by chromatic aberration of magnification seen at the border between the tree and the sky at the left. Fine sharpness and definition.
Best wishes, Hisashi

Hi Luis,

the story is really wonderful and it makes the photo you've taken more lively. A good idea to also take the trees around the church giving a well contrasted composition.

Me gusto mucho la nota,
Edi

Hola Luis!!

Esta es una de las cosas que me gustan de esta página...el poder conocer historias como la que hoy nos traes...bonita, dura, pero real...así cada quién se buscaba la vida...y ahora queda casi como leyenda...

En cuanto a la foto, me gusta lo de enmarcar con las ramas...incluye al monumento en su entorno y nos da sensación de espacio, la definiciónsuperior y los colores...muy bonita y muy bien acompañada por tu informativa nota!!

De verdad te lo agradezco...

Saludos

Manu
