Photographer’s Note
This is one of the small streets in Zamosti -- the old Jewish quarter of Trebic. In contrast to the photo of Zmosti I've posted yesterday, houses are more renovated here, but they still preserv their medieval and rather mysterious look and feel.
Zamosti -- consisting of over 100 houses in the limited area along the Jihlava River -- is a unique document of Jewish culture in Moravia and the only Jewish monument outside Israel specifically placed on the UNESCO World Heritage List.
Update: Here is a different view taken from the same place.

Hi Marek
Very well done. Nice POV and perspective. Graet colors. The light is perfect and it wasn't easy. Interesting note too.
Congratulation.

It looks like marshmallow colours. The green spot in the background though creates a nice contrast. What i like most is the idea of the wall going on the feet of the walker. It looks like the soil was being broken because of the wall.

Unbelievable colors Marek: the pink and the sand yellow are beautiful. Composition and perspective at the best and the kind of place I love. Great!

Dobry Den Marek,
Godd upwards perspective here in this nice old street, the stairways provide good depth and the arch an attractive framing, I'm a bit surprised by the colrs of the wall that look quite meridional, I'd expect those colors more from Italy or so...
Nice view.
Have a nice day,
Jean-Yves

Hi Merek,
Greau picture of these stairs. The orange and pink walls and the arch over the path make it a fascinating colour-composition.

Bonjour Marek
Cela me rappelle aussi les vieux villages du sud de la France.
Le cadrage est intéressant, il offre une belle perspective vers le haut.

dobry kadr i perspektywa; mysle, ze wzmocniles kolory; slyszalem, ze luki (arcs) sa charakterystyczne dla budowli zydowskich; udane zdjecie.

A very good mixture of shapes, materials and colours. Beyond its documentation interest, this photo is structured like a painting. Good composition. Artistically done !

Another window to the past, Marek. Nice stairway leading up the hill; from soft pastel colors to powerful green; great depth. Well done!

Hi Marek,
very nice view of this small street! Excellent architecture's study, even if in a cloudy day, i like the perfect exposition, the pattern of the steps and the houses. No peoples, only silence.
Very good work, bravo!
ciao, Giorgio

Belle perspective qui conduit à des arbres en fleurs. C'est un coin plein de charme où on aimerait vivre.

Hi Marek, this shots from Zamosti reminds me some places in Portugal, Óbidos, Sintra or even old quarters in Lisbon. Our origins are not Jewish, so we don't have the unique Jewish mood or tradicions. But the colours, narrow streets and alleys really look-a-like.

Hi Marek. I must have missed this marvellous shot. The POV, colours and clarity are astounding. Definitely one of your best. The colours and interesting texture of the stone walkway provide much enhancement to an already winning photograph. Very well done, Marek!
