A wonderful view Fred, like the angle, reflections, focus and a cloudy day exposure to show the details on the waterfront buildings.

Comment from Dick Lee Shia
Looks like a retro capture circa 1970s with its semi sepia overtone.
As if there's a structure/color coding for the wall & the roof in uniformity.
Looks so neat & organized & visually soothing.
Nice rippled reflection.
Must be an overcast day...
Excellent focusing & framing.
Thanks.

Comment from Regina E.H-Ariel
Fantastic shot of the old town, which is almost like a third home town for me - you certainly stand on one of the bridges to get this angle and position your color range is exceptional and accurate for a cloudy day getting nearly black and white in natural colors - super focus, fantastic contrast and lighting , the reflection in the water brings deepness and life into the scene - excelent shot, thanks for sharing

A very handsome image indeed with nice water reflections, even on such it an overcast day. Excellent use of the subdued coloring here gives a vintage or historical flavor to the scene.

Fred,
A beautiful picture of this ancient Swiss city with the buildings reflected in the river that flows past them. Beautiful composition framing & lighting with superb camera techniques with razor sharp focus.

Comment from seshadri_sreenivasan
The use of monochromatic color, and overall painterly quality makes this image especially interesting. You have captured the stillness and the reflections very well. Thanks for sharing!

thanks a lot michael for your kind comments;
Inoticed that you don't like modifications: like me: I neever used photoshop or similar

I use it every once in a while for my Wedding sessions, but i try to get the shot right the first time straight out of the camera. It is much more natural and a lot less work. :)
