Vatican City

Photographer's Note

The centre of the roman catholic world attracts a lot of people from all over the world. Saint Peter's Square is visited by tourists even at night, everyboby wants to capture the view of the beautiful luminated Basilica, like these nuns.
I thought this would be a worthy photo for my 100th post here at TE, that I finally reached. I would be pleased if you shared your opinion about the photo with me!

Hello Marton
You could sell this one easly as a postcard, it is so cliché Vatican as can be.
But I love it. Your light management is spot on, the picture is cristal clear and crisp and the two nuns are just the cherry on the cake.
have a good start to the new week

Hello Marton,
Congratulations on your 100th photo! It is a beautiful night shot. The exposure is just right; we can see the details of the cobblestone ground when the light shines against it. I like the position of the nuns in the frame, and the lovely architecture.

Kia ora Marton,
a nicely composed night photo. The nun's in the foreground adds interest to the picture. Good focus & light. Cheers, Neil
