Very beautiful image. I like this perspective very much.

Alexandre Buisse Thanks Thomas!

Jef Van den Houte 4 years ago

Impressive capture. And above all a very original one. I have seen this often, but never in such a creative capture

Alexandre Buisse Thanks Jef. It's nice to see how sometimes misfortune (having forgotten my tripod) ends up opening new perspectives.

Very clever shot, beautifully composed

Alexandre Buisse Thanks Andrew. The composition consisted in placing my camera randomly on the ground, wait 15 seconds praying that nobody would walk on it and check the end result...

King Douglas This is superb. However, I find it ironic that it forms a cross...that symbol so loaded with religious connotations...and the fact that you were "praying" no to be disturbed.

Your work moves me, my friend.

Alexandre Buisse Thanks, King!
Yes, I find it very ironic too. In a way, it reminds me of the poster of the "Amen" movie, where a christian cross was extended in a svatiska...
As for the use of the word 'praying', you can put the blame on my non-native speaking skills :)

Greate perspective and perfect symetrical composition!

i have visited a few times but never thought of this angle, very clever. mal

Alexandre Buisse Thanks Mal. I actually only thought of it because I had spent so long in the underground museum that night had fallen and I had (of course) forgotten my tripod home...

Salut ALEXANDRE,
Vraiment, cette photo, il fallait la faire...
En voyant la vignette, je me suis demandé ce qu'était cette croix avec le bras horizontal en forme de dent de scie.
Mais après ouverture de l'image, je la trouve géniale...
Il fallait vraiment avoir l'idée de la faire.
Super j'aime beaucoup... Bravo le Gone....
Henri

Alexandre Buisse Merci beaucoup, Henri. Il faudra qu'on lance une conspiration lyonnaise sur OE, un de ces jours :)

Hello,
I like your point of vue of this mémorial shoot. Great work !

Alexandre Buisse Thanks Frederic. Technically, it's only my camera point of view, as I did not lie down myself :)

Congrats! I have seen a lot of picture of this memorial, but this perspective is new to me.

Alexandre Buisse Thanks Stephan. It took me a few tries to find an original image of the memorial, though :)

Tremendous!

Alexandre Buisse This place is quite tremendous indeed. I don't exactly know why, but it really inspired me and I kept coming back to it...
