[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
This magnificent northern Baroque palace, built by Peter the Great for his wife, Catherine I, in the early 18th century. The grandiose palace and surrounding manicured gardens are a humbling example of Tsarist extravagance.

Hi Imre!
Great POV for this shot and nice architecture and colors.
Since 6 weeks I see only colonial architecture and bamboo huts.
Greetings from Bagan/Myanmar,

Hello Imre,
Fine framing of this elegant castle!
Peter the Great really carried out some spectacular architectural projects, didn't he...
A well balanced composition with good details!

Hello Imre,

A nice vertical presentation, you placed the building very nice between the trees.
Composition and and colours give a very attractive picture, very well done.

Have a nice weekend,
John.

Hi Imrie nice to see you posting again. This is a lovely looking through pic in subtle colours. I love the fucntion of the trees as natural frame. Very nice work!
Have a great 2008 too!
Bert

Hi Imre,
Very bright with crisp colours, it must be a perfect day when you took this one. The building stands far away, but still we see good detail. The sharpness is very high and the colours from the leaves make a beautiful contrast against the soft blue sky...a wonderful picture.
Have a nice weekend, Henk

Hello Imre,
Beautiful autumnal landscape. The vertical composition with the tree as a frame is very well seen. This focuses nicely the eyes to the palace in the background.
Well done !
Have a nice sunday.
Best regards, Christian

Hello Imre,

The beautiful building is nicely framed by the trees. The colours of the image are excellent as is the light of the day. Good perspective and vertical framing to capture the height of the trees. Nice work Imre.

Roberto

Excellent shot of the palace framed by the autumn trees. The sharpness of both foreground and background is excellent showing a good use of DOF and focal point.
Kath

Hola:
Preciosa fotografia, perfectamente enmarcada, el color de los arboles en otoño asi como los rayos de sol que pasan a traves de sus ramas hacen de ella una fotografia perfecta, muy bonita.
Un saludo desde España:
Pablo

Hello Imre
The vertical framing suits well this baroque palace naturally framed in between the trees, with nice light/shade contrast. Natural soft colors well rendered and a good sense of depth.
Cheers
Marilyn

Hi Imre
Looking through the trees like this makes me feel as though I'm peering through a window. The building is so colourful and I like that it's at a light angle to give depth.
Regards
Nikki

Hi Imre,
interesting the idea to frame the shot this way, with the trees a bit far from the building and using the vertical format. The result obtained is very elegant and well seen! Compliments and best wishes.
