Slightly mundane in impact technical ability is upto your high standards the symmetry of the picture is very good as are the bright vivid colours.

Really like this... wish I had a six, you have some very unique ideas. Have never seen this one. Keep enjoying your originality.

Some Artists Ive reviewed, have mentioned they don't have a good editor for display of their work. Most of us cant afford expensive editors. Only reason I have what I have, is that Ive been collecting software since 1978, eventually you get what you want.

Its difficult to reproduce accurately with a cameras. It tends to compress zones of tonality into an 18% gray. However there are some excellent Free programs on the Internet, even if you have a good one. You might try reading the review on CNET to see if you think one would be handy. Some are simpler, for quick changes they do faster, and load faster, others may even work better work for you.

Some Free editing programs:

Gimp or Gimpshop, much like Photoshop

Ive used Gimpshop and like it.

Picasa 3
Also have Picasa

Virtual Studio
and this one, a standalone program or plug in for PS.

This free editor has a close
resemblance to Photoshop both in appearance and in tools. It can handle layers,filters
and adjustments such as levels and curves. You can
check it out at:
Photo editor online Pixlr.com

Faststone Image Viewer

Irfanview (limited but good)
Use it for one reason or another every day. Fast loading, easy to learn, and use.

Paint

Flickr has an onlin editing, makes conversions to Black and White, etc.

Online editing with PicNik.com

PaintNet Paint

Photoscape

PhotoFiltre

At Cnet there is a comparison of 15 online editors

This is a good angle for the capture of the overall image here and your focus is good. I do however find it a bit busy with the display of relics in the shot. Maybe an isolation of the centre one for a good focal point would have impacted this better.

Being a person with a rich religious heritage I appreciate these photos. I am not orthodox, but am always drawn to the attempts of people to thank God for His care. You have captured one of those places. Of course the central figure is the focal point of the shot. The lighting is great on the crucifix, and the others although important, subdued. The color is not dazzling, but subdued as well to symbolize worship. The story is there in the meaning of the cross. I like this one very much. Thank you for presenting it.

Comment from britjill


This picture has a lot going on. I think I might have cropped it to just show the arch with the crucifix. I think that might have helped to show the emotion that you obviously felt while taking the picture. It doesn't show it now. A nice souvenir though. Good job. Jill

This is really beautiful.Vied dispassionately, keeping aside the sentimental feelings, I should admit that this evokes a feeling of awe. Even small in size this is beautifully built and colourfully painted. Reminds me Indian temples.
Thanks for sharing.
