On the Doors - Black and White Photos - Italy - Original Photography - Part 1

in photography •  8 years ago  (edited)

I took these photos in an old abandoned monastery that was founded in 1263 by Hugh of Fagiano, better known as "Convento di Sant'Agostino Nicosia" in the small town of Calci - Pisa (Italy). If you want to know more about Nicosia, just access this link. (Only in Italian, sorry).

Wow man! These photos are so powerful. I wish I could do what you do:) Your use of light and shadow to tells a story in each shot.

Thank you man! In each of the photo I used only brightness, contrast and shadow, nothing more. Sometimes I use more contrast and less brigtheness, and then I adjust with the shadow (basic), other times more brightness and less contrast when I'm editing. I do not have a fixed rule, it depends a lot on the light of the place, because i don't use artificial light. In my opinion, the most important thing is the moment when I'm taking the photos, because that's where I control the input and output light on my camera, so much so that I shot several times before arriving at the final result. (;

Well it is masterful however you do it. The fact that you use actual light makes it even more impressive!

Thanks another time. I think that the process to take the photos must coming naturaly. I never think how to do the pics and the what the next place that i'll go to protography. I only take my camera and let's go! (;
