THis is a good photo for the contest. I like how you captured the beautiful scenery with the mountains and water. The building out of know where must be a history behind that.

Great entry for this contest!
The view is ahhhmazing!
The blue water, rock textures, POV showing the man-made tower and the people on top of it offering great scale of size and adding life to the shot.
Great work! Good Luck:)

This is a very striking landscape. Rugged mountains with little vegetation, mostly barren rock. An abundance of building material, more than enough for the towers.

Very deep DOF shown here.

The blue of the Med is dramatic in contrast to the surrounding landscape.

Framing is superb.

The lighting in the foreground is just right and contrast nicely with the distant mountains.

Well done ... B-)) Bob

This is beautiful landscape photography. The clarity of the image is good. The distant blue hills, the blue sea, the watch tower amidst the rugged hills make it a well composed shot. Good luck!

A very fine shot. The setting is great and the placement of the tower is ideal. I like the detail in the foreground rocks and the way the hillsides fade with distance. Great colors and very nice crop. Best of luck in the contest.

A beautiful picture of the square Genovese tower above the gulf of Porto with five or six people standing on top looking at the view beautifully framed by the sea & rocky mountains on the other side of the bay. Beautiful composition, framing & lighting taken with superb camera techniques & sharp focus. Good luck in the contest.
