Elegance

Of all the magnificent historic buildings I photographed at Sydney University today, this modest shot through the greenery jumped out at me as my ‘shot of the day’ – for me there’s something alluring about the partial view through the foilage – perhaps less is more!

Elegance belongs to the following groups:

Australian Landmarks and Icons, Former DPF Members and IPA -International Photographers Alliance

WarrenMackenzie, 4 months ago

Your composition and treatment make this building look like one of the grandest establishments in all of Sydney. I’d sure hate having to clean all those windows.
Maybe you could post this into the “Windows and Doors” Gallery and see what those experts have to say. Great job Rosalie!

The preview images make it look like a meticulous painting. How have you achieved such an appealing effect? Or is that a trade secret? ;)

Murray Swift, 4 months ago

that’s a beauty! Detail, colour, comp… everything.
Pat Abbott, 4 months ago

A lovely capture, nice details!
Rosalie Dale IPA in reply to JasonTowers’s comment, 4 months ago

Hey Jason – this was a combination of some light-handed HDR (from a single image in photomatix), a very careful edging (can’t remember exactly but think I used threshold pulled back a fair way and blended) and because there already was some light on the greener leaves to the upper right, a very light coloured omni rendered just off centre to extend the light a tiny bit. Pleased you like it. The end result is trial and error and up to you and your eye!!! I have only just started to venture into HDR so my attempts are on the careful side! I appreciate your kind words – thank you so much!
Rosalie Dale IPA in reply to Peter Evans’s comment, 4 months ago

Thanks again Peter for the great encouragement.
Rosalie Dale IPA in reply to Paul Vanzella’s comment, 4 months ago

Rosalie Dale IPA in reply to barkeypf’s comment, 4 months ago

Paul – thank you – so much appreciated my friend.
Rosalie Dale IPA, 4 months ago

Gosh – thank you all for your wonderful encouraging comments – very much appreciated. I suspect the little bit of HDR did help with this one – I’ve been avoiding using it but gave in on a couple of recent pics. Sigh … maybe us oldies do need to move with the times!

PhotogeniquE IPA, 4 months ago

love the way the greenery frames the building – great shot
JasonTowers, 4 months ago

Thanks for revealing your processing, Rosalie. It must be the edge effect I picked up on — the lighting is beautiful, but for me the appearance of tiny brush strokes is what makes the image pleasing.
kenspics, 4 months ago

WOW… what a stunning photo!!!
Shot of the MONTH!!.

Will Barton, 4 months ago

Fantastic shot Rosalie! You’re right about how it just ‘pops’ out at you. Love the warm light on the old sandstone and the greenery provides some nice contrast.
Hans Goepel, 4 months ago

I have many things that I love, Trees is one of tem, places of learning is a odder. I never had any education. So Elegance has tow menings for me Elegance is education and beauty for me. And you Rosalie you have captured it beautifully. Love the lighting.

Rosalie Dale IPA in reply to Hans Goepel’s comment, 4 months ago

Thank you Hans, especially for the favouriting. So pleased this evokes similar feelings. Thankfully, while they are building a heap of new ‘boxes’ at the Uni, these old elegant structures are being preserved. They are wonderful.

Superb shot Rosalie, well done.
Rosalie Dale IPA in reply to Jason Connolly’s comment, 4 months ago

:+) Long way to go to rival you mate, but I actually was encouraged for the first time using HDR on this…it seemed to be ideal for the textures in the building. Thanks for the kind words.
