Hi Lars,
In theory, if two buildings are very tall and you look at their tops in between, you should see the tops of the two buildings meet each other, or almost meet each other in some point. Some times, the phenomenon is referenced to perspective effect. We are seeing the perspective effect to the tall buildings in this picture since you are close to the building and the buildings are sufficient tall enough to see the effect. A very special angle to see the buildings and we have a clear view of them. I like this composition very much.
A picture with clarity, details, and nice contrast. The trees and the flowers on the trees made an excellent frame to this beautiful photo. Well done.
Wes

Hello Lars. I like your comment about "real Dutch weather". I also like the contrast between the roof and the white cloud. It was a good idea in including the bushes on the right side because they help lead our eyes into the shot. Nice one Lars!

Hi Lars,
A beautiful architecture you have shown here and I find it very interesting. The way you divide the space is also interesting - the sky, the building and the trees. Each having its own role in making this scene beautiful. Nicely seen! Regards and a nice day.

Nice church, Lars. like the composition with trees in foreground and soft colours. I'd prefer corrrected perspective as in Kent's workshop.

Thanks for sharing,
Marek

Hi Lars!
This cathedral looks really impressive. Nice colors and sharpness. Composition is good but you must correct the perspective.
Thanks for note.
Regards.

Beautiful architecture. Very well composed with great colors and sharpness. Love the contrast with the green trees in the foreground. A little bit tilted toward the right otherwise a perfect shot.
Congratulation Lars.

Hi Lars,
very kind of you to present us with Sint Jan in Den Bosch.
I can see you had problem with light due to "real Dutch weather" that we experience quite often here in NE England. Therefore you may consider using an UV filter that brings colours out when is overcast; also, shooting at lower speed may help.
Twisted perspective is almost impossible to control, especially when using wide-lens. But this can be overcome quite easily in PS, i.e.
In your photos I'm not concerned about the side verticals leaning towards the centre, but the crooked view visible in roof of the middle part being not leveled.
Hope you don't mind me doing a little workshop.
Regards,
Robi

Zo, ik ben weer eens op TE.

Mooie foto van de prachtige St Janskathedraal. Heel mooie lucht en bloesem erbij ook.

Bonjour Lars
J'apprécie beaucoup votre commentaire qui est très intéressant.
Cependant le ciel a influencé la cellule de votre caméra ce qui a sous-exposé le sujet, c'est normal en photo; la solution était de surexposer légèrement pour compenser l'écart de luminosité; j'ai effectué un WS avec une correction de perspective.

Hello Lars
I appreciate much your comment which is very interesting. However the sky influenced the cell of your camera who has under-exposed the subject, its normal in photograph; the solution was to over-expose slightly to compensate for the variation of luminosity; I carried out a WS with a correction of perspective.
