The Green Rooftop Vase, a photo from Malaga, Andalucia

Photographer's Note

Detail from a new apartment block in Benalmadena Pueblo, Spain. It seems to be a feature on some Spanish buildings to place a decorative urn or vase at the corners or on the pinnacle of the construction.

Hi Brian,

I like this close-up shot a lot, the interesting geometry of the orange edge, the vase, the strong colours, the beautiful light...

Have a nice day

Hello brian,
excellent the cropping of the image with the yellow paint of the edge of the wall to be placed perfect in the frame,with the green pot to be the eyes catcher of the shot.
I like the great contrast of the colours as the light and colour management.

Have a good afternoon,Danos

Hello Brian,
Another of your eye-catching images. A perfect slash of orange from corner to corner across the diagonal upstages the urn.

Trevor

Bonsoir Brian
Cette ligne orange dans la diagonale du format donne une excellente touche à cette image et elle crée une très belle complémentarité en douceur avec le bleu de ce ciel.
bonne soirée

Hi Brian,
foto minimalista ben realizzata.
Bello il contrasto cromatico tra la muratura e l'azzurro del cielo.

Well done!

Hi Brian,
Simple well define shot. Very well seen and captured.
I wonder how did you manage to observe this vase sitting on top the roof. Excellent eye-sight you have.
Now I learn something from you to look out on top of some roofs. Thank for sharing. Cheers!!

Complimenti Brian
veramente bella la linea arancio che partendo da sinistra e tagliando in diagonale la foto, sembra percorrere una strada già delineata, un percorso che serve a dividere il bianco dal blu.
Un gran bel lavoro.
Saluti
Carlo

Hello Brian,

This is a very nice picture you're presenting us. The composition is perfect. I like the lines of the roof that resembles lace. I also like the contrast between the orange line and the blue sky.

Very nicely done
