Comments by Bruce Hunter on Tue, 05/03/11 17:15 Original post too dark,........ I think this one is better. Comments by Alias on Tue, 05/03/11 17:54 2 for me Comments by Jan Bjorklund on Tue, 05/03/11 19:38 Also two for me... the stronger blue toning in the posted image gives a different feel for me... I sense eerie more than a simple walk through the graveyard with an accompanying thoughtful and peaceful feel. Comments by Sandi MacDonald on Wed, 05/04/11 09:32 The second one for me also. I like the grey toning better. Comments by Linda Frey on Wed, 05/04/11 13:50 It's not as sharp and clear as your night photos have been. How does it appear if it is left unsharpened? Comments by Bruce Hunter on Wed, 05/04/11 16:26 Linda, I cropped the original photo (see insert)and perhaps over-sharpened to compensate.....Also,most of my night photos were taken with my newer compact the Canon S90. This cemetery is so large and has so many famous people buried here ( Balzac, Delacroix, Edith Piaf, Jim Morrison, etc... ) that cemetery maps are available at the entrance. I could easily have spent half a day here, photographing the various and unique tombs and vaults but this was my last day in Paris and there were other sights to see, yet. Comments by Linda Frey on Wed, 05/04/11 22:02 Sounds like quite the cemetery. It's interesting to see a bit more of it in the wide shot, although it is a good crop you did.
