Hi Natasha,

very interesting frontal capture of this monastery. It really doesn't look one! I like the luminosity since you shot this in the shade and we still see all the details. There is an interesting symetry too. Great job!
Regards,
Carlos

Καλή Ανάσταση Νατάσα, όμορφη εικόνα πολύ καλά καδραρισμένη.
Χαιρετώ

Hallo Natasha,

ein wunderschönes, besinnliches Foto. Das offene Tor lädt zur Einkehr und Stille ein. Du hast den Moment gekonnt eingefangen.
Die Kirche kommt in ihrer Gesamtheit sehr gut zur Geltung.
Gratulation.
Liebe Grüße
Adele

Hi Calexica!
