Photo prise de la Turbie/Les Hauts de Monte-Carlo..

View over Monaco from the village of La Turbie / Les Hauts de Monte Carlo.

Unfortunately my small zoom doesn't permit me to get closer..

On the picture you can see the Palace, Musée Océanographique and cathedral of Monaco on the old part of the city, the Rocher.

Hi Leonie
I find this quite an odd composition - from the thumbnail, the cactus spikes in the foreground made me think of a view looking through the crown on top of the Statue of Liberty! It's a really interesting view of the city and the DOF is excellent.
Regards, Sarah

Hello Léonie,
Très belle image, beau point de vue !
J’aime bien les couleurs, mais il me semble que ca manque de punch !
Je me lance dans un petit workshop !
Beau travail
A++
Merci pour le partage
Amicalement,
Sébastien

Salut Léonie,

Jolie plongée sur le Rocher dans la brume de chaleur. J'ai mis du temps avant de voir le port sur la gauche dont l'allignement des bateaux ressemble un peu au toit des immeubles alentour.

J'aime bien le tout premier plan "qui s'y frotte s'y pique ?"

Amicalement, Paul

Bonjour Leonie, joli point vue, et la mer d'un beaux bleu azur, belle photo, amitié, cricri

This is anice view from the place, and also a good idea to reinforce the height of the POV by this portrait format and angle.
I like the colors.
Well done

Hi Leonie!
Great composition with a very good POV and DOF. I like your inclusion of the cactus ;)
Well done!

Take care,
Susana

Hi Leonie. I like the high pov and the beautiful view. I might have tried a landscape orientation, but that's just me. What are the spires in front of you? They remind me of the top of the Stature of Liberty! ;) Oh happy 4000 points! Nice shot Leonie!

nice, original, angle, Leonie
excellent choice of foreground, make a very interesting composition

Bonne idée d'avoir inclu ces branches de cactus en premier plan, ca donne une bonne profondeur à l'image. La netteté est bonne, et les couleurs sont agréable

A bientot

Hi Leonie,
It's a very nice view of the city of Monaco! I also like your foreground and the rest of the good composition, well done!
Groeten,
Lars

Hi Léonie, I like the grand view of the city from the top. Judging from the soft color in the distance in contrast with the clear view in the front, I guess that it is a hot steamy day when you took this picture. Nice frame using the plant in the front. A well taken picture.

Salut Léonie,
Une photo en trois parties, beaux contrastes de couleurs et de matières avec ces piquants au premier plan, bonne netteté sur les différents plans.

Coucou Leonie,
alors on est allé flamber dans les casinos ;o)...sympa cette compo avec les cactus, dommage que le zoom fait perdre un peu de precision sur le fond de l'iamge, mais cette vue reste belle et assez inedite sur TE.

Bonjour Leonie,
Beau point de vue pour cette plongée sur Monaco, bonne idée d'avoir inclus ces feuilles de cactus dans ta compo.
Meric de partager.

Great view.I like the composition and prespective.Good contrast between the buildings and the water.Very good colors,light,textures and sharpness.I like the framing.Well done!

Hi Leonie - beautiful mediterranean colours, the red bricks agaist the blue sea, and brilliant idea of placing the cactus in front.

Hallo Léonie. Eine gut ausgewählte, selten gesehene Perspektive auf Monaco, mit einer schönen Farbpalette und einer guten Schärfentiefe (Tiefenschärfe?) bis runter ans Meer. Witzig - die Pflanze im Vordergrund erinnert (wie auch von Cos beobachtet) ein bisschen an die Krone der Freiheitsstatue. Well done.

Very nice photo of Monaca. I like your high pov view, which creates this nice wide composition. The colour of the sea looks very attractive.
Well done!
