It always works, a photo from Sachsen, Est

Photographer's Note

You can see in this photo the Semperoper (Semper Opera House) in Dresden. Semper is the name of the architect who has designed it. Ironically these two words "semper opera" translate from Latin exactly as "it always works". I have showed you already a view from the same square (Theater Square) but in the opposite direction:
https://www.trekearth.com/viewphotos.php?l=8&p=1588787
but even having them both together you would still miss one more important building located at this square: the Zwinger Palace.
In my previous photo I tried to get as close as possible to the subject to avoid the construction works. This time for the same reason I tried to take this photo as wide as possible to make the construction works visually smaller in the scene.

Hi Mariusz,another beautiful composition, you have hidden the work well with a wide view and putting the lamp in front. Very good. Unfortunately I think that during Covid, the always open of the opera has suffered a stop, a strong blow to the legend .. ehehe .. congratulations for the perfect quality as always. Have a nice weekend and thanks,Luciano

Bonjour, cher Mariusz,
Voilà une place qui possède des beautés sculpturales et architecturales de premier plan.
Le tout sous un ciel griffé de jolis nuages.
Amitiés.

Hello Mariusz,

It's a fine positioning of the features and building, so the construction work is hardly visible and does not detract.
The clarity and colours are excellent.
I would have cropped much of the expanse of empty sky to make the features appear closer, even though the blue sky always attracts us, who are more used to grey ones!
Just try it and see what you think.

Have a good w/e,
Bev :-)

Hello Mariusz,
A great photo of the Semperoper with its impressive architecture and the square in front of it with the large statue and the lamppost. Those construction works (not only here of course) were quite annoying, but what can you do? At least the weather was glorious here.

Pozdrav.
Lep trg sa lampom i spomenikom, dobro pokazano sa lepim bojama, kontrastom, perspektivom i dobrim tekstom.
Lepa fasada i detalji, lepa Kuca opere.
Dobro uhvacen trenutak sa oblacima koji dolaze, lepa fotografija.
Zelim vam lepu i mirnu noc, sve najbolje.
Paja.

Greeting.
A beautiful square with a lamp and a monument, well shown with beautiful colors, contrast, perspective and good text.
Beautiful facade and details, beautiful Opera House.
A well-captured moment with the clouds coming, a beautiful photo.
I wish you a nice and peaceful night, all the best.

Hi Mariusz

Bonita mesmo esta praça com estes monumentos e o lampião. A fachada da teatro é magnifica e a sua nota é muito interessante acerca do nome dele.

Hello Mariusz,
For the construction work had been better chosen a more neutral colour. The kiosk is of course much more eye-catching.
Naturally, the focus is first on the beautiful Semperoper and the equestrian statue.
With the graceful lamppost you create more depth in the photo.
The white clouds in the sky provide a beautiful background.
Best regards, Paul

ikeharel (105867) 2020-11-29 2:45

Excellent distant perspective, many objects included, Mariusz.
Scaffolding are less notable, but part of regular maintainance so no problem with it.
Wonderful outcvome, my cong.s,
Ike

Hello Mariusz.
Impossible not to find some work in the cities when you travel, this impressive building of the Opera, above it has a sculptural set that hurts to be so black, the same as the elegant sculpture of one of the kings, that we see in front, I do not know what kind They are made of metal, a very pictorial sky too.
An image to enjoy, with its beautiful coloring, great luminosity and perfect sharpness.
Superbly captured. I love.
Happy start to the week.
Very best regards.
Luis.
