An Imposing View

[Bretagnez]

A slightly different take on the Memorial to the 'Murdered Jews of Europe' in Berlin. Taken in July 2012, but I decided to reprocess now to add a bit more of a sombre, moody and imposing feel to the image. How I feel a place like this should be experienced, and not the way in which some people choose to when visiting!

What do you think?

Scratch that. Working now!

In terms of the exposure and contrast I really like the variety of tones on offer.

I also like the movement in the sky.

With regards to the composition I think an upright cross could have been a nice idea.

I also agree places like these should be experienced in a reverend and sombre attitude and I think the processing does that justice here.

Intesresting, graphical. good B&W.

Unfortunately it doesn't say much to me about what it is about, but I suspect that's not you, it is the sculpture that I have difficulty with.

Thanks for the feedback all, much appreciated and I'm glad some can see it in the same manner! I have a number of compositions from here but I felt that the more traditional cross-type was a bit static and dull!

I can understand that, as a sculpture for what it is a memorial of, I don't particularly 'get it', but do know the background behind it. So perhaps that is why! Thanks for the feedback!
