Chiaroscuro

Light and shadow in italian or Clair-Obscur in french.This shot was taken last year at a public village called Canadiana village… http://www.canadianavillage.com/ . ...They used to rent it for movie shootings and special events.That place closed about 6 years ago…the time slowly took possession of the already old houses.I had time to do some shots but the owner asked me to leave…..zut de zut …I felt like Alice in Wonderland,you should have seen that lost village in the midle of nowhere,a real paradise for photographers….
Taken with a D200 Nikon

    hi Gigi, great use of the light that you had available, it’s strange how as photographers we love to rummage around old houses it seems as if we are bringing back to life the people that once spent there lives here

  • micmac replied

    There is always something to see and I feel so inspired to give a special mood to the scene,you’re right it comes to life just in front of our eyes,I love it…thank you dear Marshall…x

    What a lovely shot! They say that the best things in life seldom come easy and your rude removal requester has made the capture almost “forbidden fruit”...so many layers of decay, the wood, the cloth, the dead insects and a subtle light to mix it together…just lovely (in a sad and “my God we are all here temporarily” way :)
