hi Isabela
wonderful BW work.
POV adds great depth.
The patterns on the floor and those on the structure complement each other superbly

Hello Isabela,
Wonderful composition B&W. Very nice contrast. The human element is very important as a scale and is very well positioned in the frame.
Very well done.
Regards.

Amazing architecture ! The details are capatured brilliantly. The arches are very interesting .Different shades of grey is adding a lot the the whole image. Great shot !

Hi Isabela,

The building in your photo IS NOT Agia Sofia !!!

It is the mosque opposite to Agia Sofia (I think it is called The Blue Camii).

Please correct me if I am wrong (maybe our Turkish TE-members will know better and contribute).

Please click here for Agia Sofia and here for Blue Camii.

Nevertheless, your picture is excellent, congratulations.

Best regards and friendly,
Michael

Hi Isabela

Great point of view to "picture" this wonderful building (which is not hagia Sofia by the way.... but the Blue Mosque) The choice of B&W was perfect to give it an effect of old age. Good work! chau chau,

Hello Isabela,
Tell me, what did you do here. I mean on the conversion and on the toning, how did you work on this one. It looks very good, in detail, sharpness and the post-processing is completly different than all your other work, so were is your secret? ;-)
Yes i like it, a lot. This is high class work without a doubt..!!!
Regards, Henk

Très beau noir et blanc, un traitemet impeccable. Quelques mini détails qui me dérangent un peu: la superposition des passant. J'aurais aimé que l'homme qui apparait un peu derrière le premier personnage soit entier ou completement absent de l'image. Il y a également une petite penchouille très facile à corriger.

Sinon, voilà une image très belle et très interessante.

Very stunning b&w. Really amazing tones. Would love to know how you have done this. Is it a post process or did you have amazing light that day? Rgds, Leilani

Hello Isabela,
I have never seen this great mosque rendered so unusually. This goes beyond the realm of simply being a photograph, it is a fantastic work of art. Your rendition is surreal to say the least and I am marveled by the strange effect that you created with your B&W conversion. Amazing and highly immaginative work!

Hello Isabela,
Although I have not been able to see you during your short visit I am glad to see at least a a few pictures you took. In this case I like very much the desaturation but I believe that you also worked some kind of manipulation whşch gives a nice look overall.
Hope tos eee you on your next visit - Cheers - Izzet

I love you B&W work and this is one of my favourites from your gallery. The tonal range is wonderful and it is also well composed. Wonderful stuff.

Amazing contrast and clarity. It's got so much depth. The b/w conversion works wonders.

Hola Isabela.
This is one of your best photo in B&W, really impressive, the details, sharpness and tones are magnificent, it's so different to your previous shots but equally great.
Well done. TFS.
Cheers.

WB is very good coise for this photo. And your pic is about my world . Thanks for sharing. Bye.

Hi Isabela,
Very excellent B&W. The tones are sharp and distinct. I would prefer not having the two men in the foreground. Interesting how many people think this is Hagia Sophia. Thanks.
