A remarkable find. The composition is superb and the colors are excellent. The lighting is outstanding and should serve you well in this contest.

A strange side. It must have been a surprise to find ancient, but almost undamaged icons in this broken down church. How you arranged the painting to the shutters and how you have it lighted end emphasized by the light seeping in around the shutter is perfect. So is the tall framing. The old icon draws the eyes immediately. It seem surrounded and further emphasized by various frames of old shutters as well as frames of light and shadow. Best Luck for the contest!

nice capture. the angle of the shot of the Madonna by old window with a glow of light coming thru. the clarity is great. the capture of the light is great. the image is balanced and eye appealing to the viewer. good eye and great job overall

Aptly captured for the contest theme...
Subtle illumination.
Ideal framing.
Pin sharp focusing.
Good perspective & long depth of field... Best of luck in the contest!

What a comforting photograph, having deep spiritual interest, I love the way that lighting almost promotes a saintly halo over the the Virgin Mother Mary.

What a wonderful entry for the contest. The details, colors and composition make this a first class scene. This will do very well in the contest without doubt. Best of fortune ~ Steve

I find this picture subject to be rather strange and yet compelling, it must have been difficult to shoot in those circumstances, with sun light breaking through behind the shutters, I particularly like the detail of the wood grain in the shutters, and the colours work very well, and the icon showing up like that puts an eerie feel to the scene. thanks for sharing.
best wishes
KEN.

Beautiful photo composition that evokes a different time. The darker wood suggests an older simpler time and the light shinning through the door shows a brighter long ago religious expression that seems to bring out the truly sacredness of the Madonna! Thank for sharing this wonderful photo.
