Photographer’s Note
This is the last picture of the series of the Nuns.
This looks to me a mistery picture because did not see her face, and too becasue her dress and because this is in B&W, I crop it a little because was distractive the rest of the pic, I add the frame and my name. I know the sky looks overexaturade, but I try to fix it and I can not.
Thanks for your comments and critics

I am not sure about the black and white choice here, I would like to know why you decided to convert it. I really love the idea of your composition but I must confess it seems too dark to me. The shot behind her back is a good idea and the perspective is good too, the only problem I have is the darkness and the light parts of the frame being too strong and differenciated.

Hi Elias,
This is really nice picture. I like the way the light falls in this alley. The silhouettes and details are good. Nice work.

Elias esta no es tu mejor foto, tecnicamente hablando, sin embargo me gusta mucho tu idea de retratar a esta senora por detras.
El formato blanco y negro talves no es el mejor, en mi opinion, pero el fotografo sabe mejor que caracter queria para esta foto. Algo que me gusta bastante el la silueta. Tiene buenos detalles.
En general me gusta la foto porque lograste una buena composicion. Es cierto que el cielo esta sobreexpuesto pero la idea detras de la foto sobresale mas. La luz disponible a esta hora sirvio mucho para tu obra. Me gustaria ver esta foto en color.
Buen trabajo Elias :-)

Eu gosto desta foto. Creio que o facto de estar de costas e com o auxilio de uma moleta dá à imagem um sentimento de fragilidade muito grande mas, a caminho da luz. O preto e branco também ajuda a esse mesmo sentimento. Para mim está muito boa.

Hello !
wonderful BW picture.
I.M.O. it's a little bright and not much contrasted but I presume it's my monitor...
Crop could be better if you cut a little at right (IMO of course).
Ciao e complimenti !

Olá Elias, I like it. The overexposed sky isn't possible to correct with PP, but it actually looks nice here, as she was going in direction to the light to get "salvation", in a poetic interpretation. The b/w choice also works better for the overexposition, making nice contrasts. It's a good complementar one for the one with her seen from the front side. Nice series.
Un saludo,
Ricardo

Hola Elias:
He estado mirando tu serie sobre monjas, y la verdad es que es muy curiosa.
A mi si me gusta el banco y negro en esta foto, porque acompaña mejor a esta monja tan anciana...

A nice atmospheric image, you can almost feel the coolness of the streets shadows, and the brightness of the light infront. The nun as you say is mysterious and could even maybe be an undercover cop in disguise :-)

Hola Elias,
Me gusta tu nota y la foto por el angulo de toma, la textura del pavimento pero creo que puedes hacer algo mejor con otro angulo para no tener tanto contraste. Una buena foto de todos modos.
Nos vemos.
Disculpe por lo de China, creo que el libre comercio es un mal de todo le mundo...

Ótima foto Elias!
Composição adquada, boa perspectiva; muito boa a escolha do p&b nessa foto. A silhueta da senhora e lá na frente a claridade da luz do sol fez um bom contraste com certo significado. Parabéns.
Grande abraço,
Vera.

Very good one too
