Hi Maeva
Great light and warm colors. I like the light posts and buildings leading to the bell tower. The man on the moped is kind of a distraction. Anyhow nice capture of this tower and the life surround it. Well done.

Hello Maeva
Nice pic of this drum tower, there's strong sense of symmetry and it's good to see that you included a cyclist to make the foreground less empty. but next time try to minimize the tilt :) but lightin and colours r good enough. fine documentary
Cheers
