About Right of the Mosque in "Duality in subjects I" is the Emam Khomeiny Mosque; a huge, and excessively decorated mosque. On the yard, however...... the Duality of the subject became apparent...:) My camera settings where completely off for the moment, and I had to quickly readjust them in order to capture this moment, but forgot that the previous shot was taken with +1.5 EV.... This explains the reduced quality, scanning issues not counting.

To Mary: Sorry, no rainbow..:)

Cheers,

Hugo

Dit is een mindere foto in qualiteid, maar nog steeds een hele mooie. Het kindje die de duiven opjaagt, ik vraag me alleen af, de duiven zien er bewogen uit, als je shutter tijd nou eens 1/125 was geweest had het dan wel een bevroren foto opgeleverd?? Al hoewel ik me afvraag of dat mooier geweest zou zijn. De betegelde muren zien er mooi uit, mooie blauwe kleuren. Verassend!
Groeten, Lex

Dear Hugo..:)

Rob Ernsting   {K:8914} 2/26/2004
Still a good shot for capturing the moment. And indeed pity for the result that the setting were off. Regards, Rob.


MCHK 2000   {K:4701} 2/26/2004
Another great capture, the sunshine coming through, the kid playing with the pigeons, the blue graphical walls of the Mosquue, all well balanced, excellent photo, congrats !!!


Paul's Photos   {K:34954} 2/26/2004
nice work.. that building has many opportunities for photos :) i like how two of the arches had sunlight and the others are dark


Tim Bronkhorst   {K:9391} 2/26/2004
Deze is bijna mooier dan die eerste (die regenboog was dus niet het filter :) De lijn tussen de vrouw en de duiven is erg dun, dat is wel jammer, maar hij is er wel en dat maakt de foto meteen een stuk sterker. De achtergrond van deze scene, als het de achtergrond is natuurlijk, is heel erg mooi. Vooral het goudachtige licht in de poorten spreekt erg aan.
Tim.


Dubravko Grakalic   {K:24332} 2/26/2004
perfect momment! great photo!


MaryBell    {K:32791} 2/26/2004
nature vs art...

works for me at least...good moment - great playfulness...wish the background were sharper to contrast more vividly with the birds' movement...


Kees and Carolyn    {K:15193} 2/26/2004
Beautiful photo! Excellent shot! The birds are wonderful, the
building is beautiful. That touch of gold behind the birds
really makes it. I think it is a great composition.
Carolyn


Roberto Arcari Farinetti   {K:177120} 2/26/2004

nice momenmt..

Thamer T.   {K:1465} 2/26/2004
Beautiful shot. I love how you captured the kid approaching the pigeons and making them "take off". The details and lighting are great, nothing wrong with them.

Do you have any shots of this place from "interesting" angles? I'd love to see them!

Well done...


Richard Thornton   {K:26442} 2/26/2004
The pigeon motion juxtaposed with the red clad figure is interesting and keeps the image from being just an architectural rendering.

Yes, I agree with your comments on "Jump", in fact I have made a b+w with harder contrasts and that worked probably better than the color version.


Roy Vanover   {K:13762} 2/26/2004
Hugo,
Beautiful and Strong! Excellent framing, light and moment.
Great Work,
Roy


Tommaso Razzano   {K:8067} 2/27/2004
Dear Hugo... only few words... very very beautiful !!!
The composition is perfect and I love the birds taken during their fly... and the child on the right...
ciao !
Tommy.


Hugo Pierre   {K:15692} 2/27/2004
Splendid snapshot! Very well composed and done. Regards, Hugo.


jon parsons   {K:13630} 2/27/2004
hi Hugo, this is such a beautiful capture and of course you know I love birds so that makes it even much better for me! { I went back to Maryland yesterday, and on my way home i drove by the great wetlands as I did last week, the white swans were there once again. they must nest there, and of course all wildlife in the great wetlands is protected, of course as is all waterfowl in the Chesapeake Bay watershed! the Chesapeake Bay is such a marvelous place, I wish you could see it someday and take some of your beautiful pictures there}.... yours is beautiful picture my friend....jon


B:)liana    {K:30945} 2/27/2004
Lovely!
Kiss, Biliana


Tim Long   {K:9210} 2/27/2004
Any qualifications aside, a wonderful shot Hugo. The blurred instant of takeoff against the exquisite who-knows-how-old timelessness of the architecture is powerful. Great job!
Tim


Roberto Arcari Farinetti   {K:177120} 2/27/2004

wonderful moment!!


Rhonda Prince   {K:17663} 2/27/2004
I love this and the reduced quality (as you call it) just adds to the spontaneity and joy of the child with the birds. Exceptional image! Cheers, Rhonda

Ian Crean   {K:14863} 2/28/2004
The three different aspects of light in the arches is important to the result as of course the subject of the boy and the birds.
Thanks for your recent comments (& favourite!), much appreciated Hugo, and congrats re EC today.


Dina Marie   {K:9657} 2/28/2004
this photo is perfection!


Patrick McGregor   {K:52} 2/29/2004
Could be a bit sharper as far as my eye is considered. The movement of birds that you have captures is somewhat ... magical. I like this photo.

Congrats on the '2004 Award and my compliments for such amazing photograph: Love it!

kind regards,

Kurt LaRue   {K:5067} 12/6/2004
Hi Hugo. To me there is a certain timelessness about this image; it could have been like this a hundred years ago and it may be like this a hundred years from now. The birds are doing what birds have always done, oblivious to the intervention of man. The child in red really anchors this photo - walking into the frame with lots of space to look into, maybe enjoying the commotion of the birds. I am intrigued by the two bright doorways contrasting with the two darkend ones. This seems to imply a choice of directions, perhaps for the child, for the birds, for the viewer... Well done, my friend, and congratulations on having three of your photos on the front page at the same time! Best wishes, Kurt


Roberto Arcari Farinetti   {K:177120} 12/6/2004
today la main page is your my friend, and i'm happy!
it's a kind of magic..

ciao

Hugo de Wolf   {K:184670} 12/7/2004
Hi Kurt, Thanks for your elaborate description; I really appreciate it... It's weird how on times like this (when I took the shot) one notices different thing looking through the viewfinder than without a camera. I'm almost convinced I would've remembered this mosque completely different without a camera...

Cheers,

Hugo


Emgy Massidda   {K:60169} 12/9/2004
I've been here before, Hugo
Back to congratulate you on the BIP
