Hi Vasilis,
very picturesque scene: rich colours, beautiful composition :) The sky surely plays one of the most important roles in this picture! The clouds match a pattern of white details at the bottom of the photo :)
kind regards,
Elena

Hi Vasilis,
mi piacciono molto le case rurali, soprattutto in foto perchè credo che rendono esse pittoriche.
Qui mi colpisce molto la luce e il bel contrasto cromatico con il cielo blu.

TFS!
Francesco

τους χαιρετισμούς μου!
