This is a perfect and beautiful shot. It is alive with color and shapes. The fact that you have the horizon as a backdrop gives us a perspective the the size of this village. I can feel the life of the people, just by looking at the rooftops. Great picture.

Technically, focus, exposure, framing are all on target. I like the architecture and colors. This reminds me of photos I took in Prague 25 years ago.

Beautiful photo with crisp colors. I love the detail in the buildings. The tree in the from is a little distracting, possibly darken the whole bottom to make it less obvious? Love the interesting sky.

    Many thanks for your detailed and considerate review! I do understand your point about the tree but I am not sure I have the skills to make a good job of it. Perhaps I need to practice!
Comment from WolvesandRoses


This photo is very colorful, there is a lot going on with it because of that. i feel it would have made a better photo if it would have been cropped back to just beyond the tall steeple building in the middle. The sides add clutter to the picture with all the extra building tops that really I feel don't need to be there to make his good,..

What a colorful photo! It is the right distance to show the roofs and the buildings too. Love the colors, and all the lines and all :)

    Thanks for you supportive comments. The colours and tones are real not added. Using Photoshop I made them a little more vivid.
Comment from Life is but a dream.


I find this image full of intrigue and because it is so crisp in detail it resurrects my desire to travel and take this view in - in all it's glory.

I love the historical spires and towers and we instantly know there is history here worth exploring.

As far as your technical aspects of this image go you have provided for the viewer many focal anchors. The spire in the distance takes us deep into this two dimensional medium which you have transformed into three dimensions.

You have brilliantly manipulated the contrast levers, the saturation is rich and the sky is whispy giving this a feeling of a "fairy tale" place of enchantment.

The dof is splendid , we can see the sea! :-)

A lovely city scape.
