What a wonderful scene you have captured here. The glow of the sunlit lampstand gives such a cool 3D look as it stands out from the background.

The sky is perfect for accenting the globes setting them apart from the background.

A great entry for the contest and I wish you all the best in the judging ~ Steve

I think you have got a great entry for this contest with this photo. It is something special about the old street lamps, and I wish it was more of them around. I especially like the warm light in this photo, and how well the lamp is standing out from the great looking sky.

Your photo is pin Sharp with Clear and well defined details, Natural colors and a perfect exposure.

The format is perfect as well and the street lamp has got a fine placement within the frame. A truly great looking and well taken photo with a very good DOF, and I wish you Luck with the contest.

I have a thing for vintage and unique styled lamp posts. If i ever went to Europe I
have memory cards filled with them!! Like Italy!
Great POV, sharp focus, superb white balance control and fine Angle showing the sky and tall buildings.
Nice work Chris =)

Chtis, this is beautiful indeed! Worthy 6 stars and to be the winner! I like the golden sunlight cityscape image! It makes perfect shadows and tones. The composition and angle of view is excellent. The contrast is fabulous! The historical streetlamp, the most important part of the photo, is awesome! Love the contrast colors of the sky! Pleasure to view and review! My compliments!!!

The sky was perfect for this shot! Makes a great background. The lamp globes and the pedestal have very attractive shapes and are accentuates nicely with the sunlight.

These are quite attractive and I like the old world feel of them the angle of the shot is super as the diminishing perspective of the buttermilk clouds creates depth. The late afternoon sun adds warmth

This is a beautiful old streetlamp and an excellent entry for the contest. I like the POW. How the lamps extend over the skyline of the city is interesting. The sky emphasises the lamp favorably. The photo is excellently focused and has good exposure. The colors are realistic. The photo is well composed and framed. The composition is balanced.

The lamps are fantastic and it would be great to catch them when they first go on and there is still some light in the sky. A beautiful composition with excellent colors and a great sky.

Chris,
A beautiful picture of this pair of elegant street lamps that look like some sort of memorial with modern buildings in the background under a blue sky with high flying white clouds. The sun adding a golden hue to the lamps & the monument below. Beautiful composition framing and lighting taken with superb camera techniques and sharp focus.
