Thank you for the comment Paul. I agree that this one is the strongest of three pictures. But Memories should they be strong as they not always are ?
all the best, Paul

Thanks for the compliments dear Ania. Surprised that you have internet high-up in the Tatra mountains, you will not be surprised I showed you to have digital photography in the 19th century :-)
hugs and kisses, Paul

Hi Arif, I'm glad that you appreciate the shot. The photographs and paintings on the wall I could not change them, they were like they were...ha ha, today however I changed the laws of time and space :-)
I appreciate you tried to make your own story as indeed the bride looks to the past to make-up her mind for the future or maybe the people photographed (relatives?) had a special meaning for her at this critical decision moment in her life. I changed present scenario a bit, but you are always free to make your own.
All the best my friend,
Paul

Hi Bilja, long time not seen, not heard. You are right and accurate in your findings and if you consider your pink glasses you always can change color of glasses as appropriate as long as you keep your own eyes open. You prefer to be romantic as it would honor you with romantic results as well to be the opposite being the tough and straightforward lady now-and-then. Being some sort of a charming actress knowing very well who you really are that would be the best. Being the bride, but also being who you really want to be is a secret combination which brings you certainly a lot of success.
big hugs, Paul

Hi Bedman Harry, all what you consider is not the end but just the beginning. A hero like Batman has only to figure out first who is the best "she".

Thank you dear Srna. You show so much courage and understanding. Take care, knowing that moods may never be long lasting, as better to collect thousands of them to your own benefit and to that of your beloved ones. It is amazing how pictures and words can positively influence and make aware.
big hug in an aiming mood from Paul

Thank you Cernan,
I appreciate your comment. You are right.
I cropped the image to a certain extend and decided to preserve the object "open door" with the antique door handle. In that case not cutting the door top from the composition I could not cut off the ceiling as a consequence. Best compromise would have been maybe cosmetic removal of the ceiling triangle or "sacrifice" the whole door as well.
Anyway your comment is highly appreciated as we learn from this, how to make better work, not how to please.
best regards,
Paul
