Hi Chris,
A good portrait of the city and itīs architecture.Nice view along the canal,the included people add life and context,I also like the deep color tones and the graphism,a good scan again.
Greetings,
Hermann

Pretty high contrast here Chris, but great PoV to give a good impression of the appeal of this place.

Hi Chris,
A very good perspective with the curved street and town canal in parallel. Excelent contrast and saturated colors. You handled well the light and the enquadrement view is very good. Very well seen and a nice work. Congratulations and have a nice week.

Best regards.

An interesting and quite vivid scene from this old town, Chris. The bend of the canal going between the colorful archi details makes for a good compositional element, and it is also nice to have some people included as the liven up the view quite a bit.

You placed the canal well in your composition; all the curved lines in the foreground work well as lead-ins. The people provide more colour.

Hi Chris. I do like the good saturation and composition. I think the contrast might be on the high side though. Still a nice shot Chris.

The bright colours in this shot really jump out at me! I also like the stream or canal curving around and bringing the viewer into the scene. Good to include people as well to humanize and give context. Great work!

Hi Chris, I like the point of view. The stone walls and the river creates a lot of texture. I am glad you included the curve of the river. That creates depth. The colors area bit over exposed. though. Thanks for sharing, Gabriel

Hi Chris, beautiful POV for this pretty shot of the canal and town. Many colorful, traditional elements - and the human touch too. The dwarf tree is very nice in the foreground. Well done, Daniel

Hello Chris,

I like this picture and I can't help to feel sorry at the same time. Because we cancelled a trip to Yunnan on the SARS year.
You managed here a great view which shows the beauty of the place starting with the river crossing the street. Compliments - Izzet
