I so enjoyed reading your artists notes and a photo that can be tied to a memory or other personal recollection means so much more. I like that your image is telling your story. Your framing is perfect and photo is well composed. Your slightly off center composition is engaging. A most beautiful landscape scene with good lighting, excellent composition and movement making for outstanding photography. I like the many colors in the sky with the grand fountain with it's bronze statue, and the wonderful details in your scene. This is a fine entry to the "A building in your life history Contest" and good luck. A well taken photo with a good depth of field. This is very nice work and thanks for sharing!

Thanks for your comments, I really enjoyed reading them. Beautiful shot, but, it seems a little out of focus. It has good initial impact, lovely color and good depth of field. I like the amount of sky you included in the finished piece, it adds contrast to the statue while giving it warmth.

Interesting subject and great background sky. I'm not sure that the off-center technique works here. It simply diminishes something that should be strong.
