    Thanks, all :)
    This is one of my personal favourites. I’m not a religious kinda guy at all, but I like iconic things (as you may be able to tell from my work). I saw this and immediately thought – ‘the mighty has fallen’. The sky was just perfect – I was lucky. And the lighting was exactly as I would have it if I had planned it.

    Mark I love this shot but what is the angel holding? The sky is gorgeous. Wonder if the head was missing or was it by intention? The angle of the shot is perfect and cropping is right on. Love this shot.

    Like this one Mark. Good use of light and tones. Makes a great statement.
    Not sure what you’d say in the postcard (;->

  • Jason Moses

    Jason Moses, 9 months ago

    Oh, yeah. There seems to be a few shots around with rich sky, delicate clouds and high-contrast structure in the foreground. This is a great example of why the formula works so well.

  • mwgids

    mwgids, 9 months ago

    first of all i must say that you have good “neck” for titles,pardon me.
    a very difficult subject for angle.one can easily make mistakes.
    you havent!!
    beautifull composition and light.
    quite disturbing.very good mark!

  • jianina

    jianina, 5 months ago

    DRAMATIC….its seams almost sinful to have caught such a great shot!...very controversial with the religion…not that i am religious or anything…its just a beheaded angel…this piece is smart on so many levels..by taking a picture of it, from the angle you did…facing the sky, defends the angel who can’t see it herself…like I said…DRAMATIC!!!

  • Azzurra

    Azzurra, 5 months ago
