The Empire

Great composition and mood, well done!

Very dramatic!

Awesome…I love how dramatic this looks…very mysterious quality…my only recommendation would be to use “noise removal”...if you notice the sky, it’s very textured or spotty..noise reduction will smooth it out really nicely, other than that it’s awesome!!

Fantastic!

Very dramatic – love the light!

love that you’ve kept this simple – the vignetting is a great effect, too.

I love the drama and mystery. Nice treatment!

Great Idea.. The Roman Forum is one of my favorites place.. Beautiful and original..

NICE :D I have to admit, you managed to frame this part of the Forum Romanum absolutely great. I love the silouette before the sky and almost vignetting form. :D Thank you so much for all your comments by the way, and thanks for thus directing me to your own very gorgeous gallery. I enjoy browsing through your pictures.

you are right it is beautiful…..........well done

As I clicked see your art after you commented on mine, this image grabbed my attention right away. You were there at the right moment and made a beautiful picture from it. I like the title also, to me the mood of the image and the title tell the story of the empire which once was great and is no more.

Why thank you Charlene. I was trying to recapture the might of the Roman empire with this symbolic structure which for me, stands for strengh and order. Glad you like it!
