So you could as well draw your conclusions from the experiments and what they generate, and then go for that with your camera, Saad. You did get some well defined consequences from the experimentation, that you can keep in mind for your camera settings when you do the next shots for achieving what you want as a result of photography rather than of 1001 experimental software nights.

Cheers!

thank you Nick for understanding as always,
this is a per formed formula,in a program named Adobe Lightroom 2.2.after I have prepared the shot for post,I tried that program for the first time in action,the first thing I have noticed is that there is about ten creative preset,I have tried all of them,and choose this cyanotype over the others,I havent realized that it mess with the already small pixels shot,but the result is too fine to me regarding the colors and tones ,irrespective of the pixelation,my best wishes,
Saad.

So, I am glad that intention is going hand in hand with the results here, Saad! It is not as important if I "like" it or not, as it is important that your vision was gained by your work of retouch - that's the most important thing! My "liking" is irrelevant in this sense.

Asn if I get you right you want a more schematic representatiopn, or am I wrong? If so, then perhaps overexposure and an appropriate temperature setting could work well for you.

Cheers!

thanks Dear Nick,it is my intention to post the image exactly as you see it ,although I have a lot of negative inputs about it,which means to me that this style is very unacceptable by the many friends here,but I have liked it from the start,and furthermore,when I plan to edit a shot in this style once again I will increase the editing effect for the shot and retain only its outlines,with so little details,and put it in the category of the fine art,this is a caynotype effects,my best Nick.

Did it suffer overexposure or was that intented to be this way for some reason, Saad? A pity since too much of the great building is now invisible by overburning. Ot would be nice to see its beauty all over the image. Ninetheless one can imagine it from the patterns on the wall of that tower. The shapes of the capitels of the columns are also imaginable but unfortunately not really visible. They exhibit the behavior of low resolution graphics of old computer games through the sudden black lines of pixels that extend either horizontally or vertically. The composition looks well balanced and tight, nonetheless.

Cheers!

Nick

yes,you are absolutely right,a mistake have been done here,instead of editing the original to produce this effect,an other final shot prepared for posting is edited as being the original,thus resulting in very weak pixels,and distortion,my best wishes and regards,
thank you for your attentions,
Saad.

dear Aziz,the original is very well balanced in the exposure,but this is a special way of editing photos to produce such effect,this one,the mistake that I have done here,is that after I have get the shot to upload,I have edited it again to produce this effect,so I have reedited an edited photo,and the result is beautiful,but with pixilation,and some distortion of the fine details,it is just an experiment to produce this effect,my regards,
Saad.

Overexposed indeed but a joy to see such a historical place. It must have been built in the first century of Islam ( al hijra )

This looks like a lovely atmospheric and spiritual place, but the harsh light has caused some areas to be burnt out. Whist not being evident on a hi res version of this image, the version here has some severe jpeg degradation. Look at the birds on the top of the building wall.

Best wishes to you Saad.
