Priest’s bedroom

Priest’s bedroom - Mission San Carlos Borromeo 1770

This photo nicely plays with the lights and the shadows, in combination with the squares of the bed and the window. I really like it. Makes me think of the chiaroscuro technique of the Old Masters of Painting. Personally, I'd probably have cropped off the edge of the chest of drawers or whatever it is on the very left, but other than that... this photo quite nicely shows the simplicity of the room. (I would just hope for that priest or monk that he got SOME sort of mattress at his times... )

This, is brilliant, I love this type of shot, so peaceful, yet it gives such a moody feeling, as soon as I looked at the shot, I felt something. The sign of a truly great photograph.

Very nice. It's a little dark on my monitor on the right.

A very simple capture of a simple, spartan room. I like it.

Very well done indeed. I like the light from the window, casting its shadows.
