Igreja Nossa Senhora da Piedade, a photo from Minas Gerais, Southeast

Photographer's Note

Fundada no final do s嶰ulo 18, como um desmembramento da bandeira de Fern緌 Dias, Piedade do Paraopeba � o terceiro povoado mais antigo de Minas Gerais. Datada de 1713, a igreja Matriz de Nossa Senhora da Piedade � uma das constru踥es mais antigas de Minas Gerais e possui um patrim獼io sacro importante, um dos mais antigos do Estado.

Hoje, mais de 300 anos ap鏀 a constru誽o da primeira ermida, a Matriz de Piedade do Paraopeba permanece como s璥bolo do distrito. O estilo arquitet獼ico da constru誽o e a devo誽o popular marcam ainda os tempos do Ciclo do Ouro em Minas.

Hello Lucas,
The church has a pleasantly simple and modest design. The photo is straightforward and gives us a good view of the fa蓷de, towers and long side wall. You handled the light very neatly.
Best regards,
Gert

Hello Lucas,
A good photo of the church, well placed in the vertical composition. Fine lighting too and a nice play of light and shadow. I really like those twin towers and the blue and white colours of the building.

essa igreja se parece mais com aquelas de diamantina do que aquelas de ouro preto, acho que essas tem um estilo mais b嫳ico enquanto as amostras da antiga capital eram mais refinadas e cheias de detalhes. linda foto e igreja.

Hello Lucas,

This church, with its blue and white facade, seems typical of Brazil, though I'm not sure whether small circular windows are usual. They do give this church a very distinctive style.

You have angled your composition well, so that the facade and the side walls can be appreciated. The exposure is sharp and well saturated.

My warm regards,
Bev :-)

Lucas, that church has a colonial style and is centuries years old. It belongs to the regional patrimony, i like its elegant blue and white painting, the balconies and windows. The two towers comprise a clock and bells. Fine colors, good sharpness, regards.

Hi Lucas,
a church well photographed, good angle and perfect management concerning the contrast of light with this fa蓷de and these shadows, interesting architecture and photo, tfs.

Bonjour, cher Lucas,
Mon int廨皻 pour l'architecture religieuse est ici r嶰ompens�.
Je regarde avec int廨皻 la structure g幯廨ale de l'嶮ifice et de son historique.
Tr鋊 bon cadrage.
Amiti廥.

Ol� Lucas, A arquitetura desta igreja � muito simples, as linhas retas e os elementos azuis s緌 as 𠒇icas decora踥es, como nas igrejas portuguesas. Parece elegante e atraente. As janelas redondas parecem especiais. Tenha um bom fim de semana

Hello Lucas,
Your composition of this shot is spot on. I see that this church is very old but it has the old simple charms which I don't see very often these days. It also has a touch of Greek church in terms of the style and color - white and blue.
This old church must be a proud symbol for the town Minas Gerais. I hope this church remains as sacred for the next century to come.
Thanks for sharing.

Hello Lucas

Greetings, Erling

Hi Lucas,
This is one of the reasons I like TrekEarth: people are sharing those lovely less known spots which you can only visit really living there but never as a tourist.
Charming church very well presented,
M

Oi Lucas ,

Me lembro desta igreja em um lugar elevado. A luz aqui e o angulo que voc� escolheu, dando um close, real蓷ram a as formas e cores desta bonita igreja hist鏎ica. Muito agrad嫛el a foto.

Parab幯s e abra蔞

Hi Lucas,

The sunject is well framed. The point of view is showing a double perspective of the architecture of the Igreja Nossa Senhora da Piedade. The quality of the light beautifies the colors. Have a nice day.

Hi Lucas
This is a beautiful old chapel taken from sensible point of view enhanced by subtle side lighting. Wonderful shot in its natural colour scheme. Well done
Best regards

ChrisJ (172466) 2020-12-01 4:26

Hello Lucas,

A good angled pov accentuating the tonal differences between parts of the church in shadow and other parts in sunlight. Good sharpness and tight framing. Tfs!

Hola Lucas.
Esta iglesia de Ntra. Sra. de la Pidad, parece estar en el campo, pues no veos casas cercanas, con la pintura un poco en regresion, necesitaria repintarse para lograr ese bonito contraste entre el blanco y azul.
Bien visto y hecho. Me gusta.
Ten un buen dia.
M嫳 sinceros saludos.
Luis.

macjake (98544) 2021-03-10 13:49

Hi Lucas
fine looking church here, even with the font in the shade, but the side is lit warmly. its good to see it sitting on grass like that, rather than concrete, giving it a much softer feel. large and full frame view, I like it. cheers

Ola Lucas It looks like this church now stands as a monumental piece of museum architecture, given the grassy entrances.
Anyway, you didn't skimp on photographic 'know how', as the verticals are rigorously corrected.
You managed by experience pleasing densities on frontage as well as in the highlights .
Thanks for this vintage jewel of yesteryears.
Abra蔞s

Hello Lucas,
It is a simple structure but i think its beauty is in its simplicity.
