Inside the Sedlec Ossuary. (AKA: the "Bone Church.") Kutna Hora, Czech Republic.

In this context, the burnt out light behind the cross is a fantastic asset. Love the items in the foreground too, not to mention the skulls and bones.

 

[Pete Askew]

Wonderful Brian and, as Tom notes, the burnt-out area behind the cross adds so much.

So, you've come home full of home decorating ideas.

 

[Ivar Dahl-Larsen]

Now I've seen the light! Thanks Brian, very well executed.

Thanks, Tom! I like that light also.

Thanks Pete. Yes. I've come home with decorating ideas: The Skull & Crossed Bones will soon by flying proudly above my home and I will be dressing like Johnny Depp before long.

Now I've seen the light! Thanks Brian, very well executed.

Nice one Ivar! And thanks.

 

[Pete Askew]

Might I suggest that the Ming the Merciless look might go quite nicely with a skull and bone themed interior!

 

[Julian de'Courcy]

That is a beauty Brian . I love blown highlights on film when they work and this does along with everything else.

Ming the Merciless,...Hmmm. I must admit his look does have some appeal. Thank you Pedro, I shall give that some thought.

I feel the same about blown highlights, Julian. I'm very partial to that look. Thanks for your comments.

 

[Beth Carter]

love the light coming from behind the cross. at the risk of sounding like pete, a square crop would work well here.

Thanks Beth.

A square crop might indeed be nice, but it's impractical now. I'd have to return to Cz with a camera that shoots 6x6 and shoot the shot again.

I Love this kind of stuff Brian, I wish I was there

I'm sure you'd find it worthwhile to go there someday, Aldous.
