The second photo of my small vacations in Andorra. This photo is taken last day of winter, in the nice village of Ordino, of which already I have presented other photos.
The sky and the clouds were magnificent, and the detail of this cross that was standing out on them seemed to me to be very interesting and aesthetic. There is no any more explanation on this capture, simply I liked it, and I hope that also you like.

In the WS it is possible to see the architectural set next to the church, in a more opened plane.

Segunda foto de mis pequeñas vacaciones en Andorra. Esta foto está tomada el último día de invierno, en el bonito pueblo de Ordino, del que ya he presentado otras fotos.
El cielo y las nubes estaban magníficos, y el detalle de esta cruz que se recortaba sobre ellos me pareció muy interesante y estético. No hay más explicación sobre esta toma, simplemente me gustó, y espero que también os guste a vosotros.

En el WS se puede ver el conjunto arquitectónico al lado de la iglesia, en un plano más abierto.

Hello Josep.
Une belle et originale prise de vue, la luminosité sur la surface du toit et les contrastes sont bien traités.
Roland

Hi Josep,
simple, positioned, composed.
Very nice, the simplicity works very well. The bump in the clouds just behind the cross makes it feel just right. Interesting detail on the cross.
thanks for sharing
regards
Paul

Bonsoir mon cher Josep
La croix en ligne directe avec le paradis.
Composition simple mais très attractive par la présence de ce ciel magnifique.
Cependant j'aurais été tenté de faire un assemblage de l'architecture en quarante douze images si j'avais été présent :)
Amitiés.

Hola mi amigo Josep,

Beautiful look to sky through a cross. Your frame is very well bordered while including only part of splendid, stone roof texture that one of my favorites all the times. Clouds in white-grey combinations excellently captured in clear blue sky. Congratulations.

Friendly Regards,

Ertugrul

Hallo Josep!
A really beautiful view - full of associations! A wonderful view, restricting the photo to the essential. By the way, I like this slate roof very much, a good work of the roofer!
Greetings from Germany - with a lot of snow!

Hola Josep,

Felicitats, m'agrada molt la teva composició i els colors.

Josep,

Hola Josep.

Colors i núvols molt i molt macos. M'agraden.

Londres...espectacular. Vaig fer fotos esclar, però no les que jo volia esclar. Un fred de la òstia i vaig veure més museus i pubs dels que hagués volgut...

Salutacions,Òscar

Precioso colorido. El WS me ha gustado mucho.

Bonjour Josep,
un peu de minimalisme ? J'aurai cadré plus à gauche pour décentrer le clocher, mais chacun sa manière de cadrer une scène.
Un ciel bien contrasté aidé par le polarisant.
Excellent mercredi.
Daniel.

Olá José,
ficou muito bonita essa foto sua da cruz imponente nesse belo céu azul. Muito bom também o WS.
Parabéns e Abraço!

Hola Josep, wonderful minimalist composition. It seems like a rocket ready to fly and explore the infinite beauty of that imense blue sky. The WS is a good complementar image, also very nice with the big tower at left, but I like much more this one.
Un abrazo amigo,
ricardo

Josep,
Une compo originale et sympathique !
J'aime bien comme tu as placé la croix, qui paraît vraiment isolée.
C'est un cadrage très intéressant.
Bonne journée,
JB.

Suprbe prise, tres aerienne, tres fariche avec ce ciel fabuleux et ces nuages magnifiques. La profondeur est top avec la crois. Bravo.

I really like it, Josep, very simple and pure, nice that you have slightly decentralized the cross and of course the sky is very beautiful.

Cheers

Salut Josep,
J'aime bien ta composition simple mais très efficace face à ce ciel élégant.

Hola Josep,
Da verdad, el detalle de esta cruz, con muy delicadeza, es interesante.
El cielo y las nubes le dan muy fuerza y equilibrio a tu composición.
Un abrazo,
Marianne

Hola Josep

Una toma sencilla pero muy simbolica, por sobre todo por las fiestas que acaban de pasar.

Los elementos contrastan notablemente, con gran nitidez y calidez colorida. Buen tiro, amigo.

John

This is minimalism at its best. The fluffy clouds are also an important part of the composition. Thank you for the WS showing the wider scene. Good work
Kath

Josep bonsoir.
J'aime la simplicité de la composition qui met en valeur la croix et le toit du clocher qui la porte devant un ciel des plus réussis.
Amicalement,
Jacques

Good evening for you

Desculpa-me mas tenho perdido algumas das tuas fotos mais recentes. Nem sempre te vejo na altura oportuna. Mas hoje aqui estou a admirar mais um dos teus lindos trabalhos. Neste caso, muito simples mas muito efectivo. Gosto também da ampla vista do WS que nos dá a ideia certa do lugar e do tamanho das construções. Obrigado.

Simple but effective... I maybe regret the cross is not in front a the blue sky, but except that, it works thanks to the light you get.

Benvolgut Josep,
tot i la sencillesa de la imatge, m'ha seduït la força cromàtica del cel i l'efecte pràcticament diví de la creu alçant-se poderosa cap a l'infinit.
Excel.lent composició molt ben vista i executada ;-)

Una abraçada, Jordi

Hola Josep
Like how you composed this with the top of the spire, made of slates & the cross standing majestically against the clouds & the polarised blue sky. Superb colours in this well done compo. Good work my friend!

Ola Josep,
Bonito detalhe capturado nesta tua foto , gostei muito da ponta do telhado de pedra preta com a cruz faz um belíssimo contraste com o céu azul , as nuvens ficaram muito belas, parabéns!!!

Bonsoir Josep,

J'aime bien l'effet de relief dans l'image. Une photo toute simple mais bien composée. La croix ressort joliment sur ce gros nuage de beau temps. La lumière est excellente. Bon coup d'oeil et merci pour la photo complémentaire qui nous donne une vue plus générale du lieu.

Avec toutes mes amitiés et une très bonne soirée,

Hola Josep.
Estupenda composicion con el impresionante cielo y sus nubes blancas y la presencia de la cruz. Muy bien captada con unos colores magnificos y desde un buen punto de vista. Tu WS esta muy bueno con una vista amplia del campanario con la cruz y sus alrededores.
Felicitaciones.
