Hello Uhu!
That's a very beautiful cathedral, that's for sure!
I like the pov you have captured it - it has enhanced how colossal it is!
Very good sharpness as well!

Hello Uhu,
Lovely capture of the magnificent Russian cathedral. I like those onion shaped domes. Nice color saturation & lighting. Best Regards. Latiff.

Hello Uhu,

The many architectural details come out very well!
The green and white colours combination works well, and the point of view gives a fine angle on the structure...
A well composed presentation, maybe the branches popping in from the left is a bit distracting but no big deal..!

Greetings,

Hi Uhu,
Nice picture despite the converging verticals. I thought photography was forbidden in this monastery. Did you hide?
Best,
Jeremy

fine picture

Hello Uhu,
You capture some lovely Russian architecture in you photos, with good note and little history of the photo.

Good focus and colour, the tower on the left little disstorted, sometime problem to get it all in.
I like it.
Regards Rob.
