[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
The photo shows Jihlava River in the town of Trebic. Small houses on the other side of the rive belong to Zamosti -- an old Jewish quarter included in UNESCO World Heritage List. You can also notice St Procopius Basilica from my yeasterday's shot on background.

This view isn't new on TE. I posted the first version two years ago, but it suffered from bad weather and its composition was far from optimal. Then Mat posted the second version a couple of months later. He tried vertical format and was much more successful than me.

Now it's time for the third attempt. Weather was fine, perhaps too fine, making the clear sky rather boring. That's why I focused on grass and the river in foreground.

Hello Marek,

A very lovely spring picture, great perspective through the excellent choice angle, the buildings and the two church towers gives a nice composition.
Friend Marek, I see in the sky three or four dust parts, maybe your censor cleaning.

Greetings,
John.

Hi Marek, A beautiful POV looking right down the river & showing all the reflections as the eye passes by, the colours are excellent & superb light, very well composed & with the Basilica overseeing the scene, this is a brilliant shot, kind regards Wilson.

Bonsoir Marek
Un cliché comme je les aime. Les reflets des maisons colorées se reflètent de belle maniière dans cette rivière. Les fleurs jaunes forment un excellent 1er plan. L'ensemble dégage une atmosphère agréable et tranquille.
Bravo - merci pour le partage et bonne soirée.
Nicole

Serwus Marek !
Hehe ;) Hope i learned something in the photography field since that times :)
"Do trzech (pronounced almost as 'Czech') razy sztuka" - third time lucky. This is the best version ever: skilfully composed scene with the Basilica in the strong point, lovely blurry reflections on Jihlava, perfect quality and charming inclusion of the spring flowers to give it a bit more contrast.
By the way i would love to revisit Moravia now. Such nice memories.
Thank You my friend,
M.

Hi Marek,
Excellent composition with wonderful reflections and beautiful vivid colors. The perspective is also stunning. Splendid work!

Regards John

Celkom pekné Marek, paci sa mi ako propagujes historicke miesta Ciech, ale chcelo by to predsa len troska viac prirody, ktora je o nieco zaujimavejsia. Mam na teba otazku.. Pri vylete na Vysocinu (kedze to je pomerne blizko z BA) sa mi oplati viac navstivit Telc alebo Trebic?
Pytam sa preto,lebo o Trebici som donedavna pocul velmi malo...
dakujem za pomoc a prajem pekny den

Hi Marek,
Well I share Mat's opinion, this time you were successful wit ht he weather conditions and the resulting photo is very nice in terms of light, perspective and reflections. There are a number of spots clearly visible in the sky so I did a WS to get rid of them.
Have a nice day,
Jean-Yves

Hi Marek,
lovely view all is good : perspective, light, colours, reflection and flowers ... well composed, a good result even if dusts are present in sky !

Ahoj Marku,
prima fotka s hezkou kompozicí. Jen bych si počkal, až odletí letadlo a zmizí po něm stopy.
Zdravim,
Standa

Hej Marek,
The lower POV next to the river works very well. The fine weather supports the attractiveness of the photo. The reflections in the calm water are great and the inclusion of the grass with these yellow flowers at the left hand side was a good decision. Well done!
Regards,
Lars

Hi Marek,
Nice photo. It reminds me a bit of a Czech city if visited last autumn. Unfortunately, I lost most of my Czech photos, but I hope I will find them back.
Good reflection you captured here. Yes, the sky has no clouds, but on the other hand, a blue sky is much nicer than a pale (or even worse: overexposed) sky. The quality of the photo is excellent and the composition is classic and good.
TFS,
Stef

Hi Marek. It was a good idea to go with the low shooting angle to help emphasize the grass. That river is so calm and straight that I thought it was a canal until I read your note. It looks like its time for a sensor cleaning though from the sky. Still it's a beautiful shot. Great shot Marek!

Hi Marec,
Nice composition with a superb reflection.
Great work
Guy

Hello Marek,

An excellent composition and pov for this very good shot.I like all the reflections of the houses in the water.Well seen and well done.

With regards from Luxembourg

Jean-Claude
