At the risk of being told the person is too small to see, another solitary soul in Romania:
The sheer scale of the monastery and the diminutive figure of the priest on the steps really emphasises the solitude for me.

A fascinating building Sue – that small figure also helps emphasise its scale.
Thanks Robin, I agree!
Indeed..and who or what is more important !)))
and how did you fit it in your camer? HUGE!
Oh, I was quite a way away, an a wide angle lens! 🙂
A really lovely building, Sue. The priest looks positively Lilliputian. 🙂
Doesn’t he just! 🙂
Weeny! 🙂 Must be a BIG place!
Yep, those monasteries in Romania were quite a size….
Great mood in the image, Sue. The contrast between the figure and the monastery gives it a new dimension.
Thanks, Dina much appreciated….
I agree Sue, I feel magnitude can isolate a smaller subject making it feel alone. It does give that impression. Great perspective 🙂
Thanks, Kaz, much appreciated! 🙂
Er… hang on a minute, now where are my glasses? Figure you say?
Seriously what a lovely building, I could spend a few hours photographing THAT! All those windows, the tower and the details! Bliss. And your solitary figure just lends itself to the scale. Nice one Sue 🙂
Yay! Glad you like this, Jude! The Romanian monasteries in Bucovina were something else….
A quiet moment . It IS some size that monastery .. tiny windows mind … all incense and candles inside maybe …
Nice capture Sue .
Thanks, Poppy! I don’t recall the interior…
One of the things I find so amazing about church architecture in general is the people-to-building scale.
thanks, Charlie – found this comment in my spam which is why I haven’t replied sooner…
