[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Close to the city of Sangüesa in Navarre, Spain lies the castle of Xavier. Saint Francis Xavier was born here in April 1506 because this castle belonged to his family. Francis Xavier died in 1522 in China. He was co-founder of the Society of Jesus (Jesuits) and is probably the most important missionary of the Catholic Church. He travelled to France, Italy Portugal, India, Japan, China and others.
Unfortunately he was not a photographer, but he was a trekker.

Hola Clemente,

Good shot!
I like very much the castles, great architecture. Good composed photo. Very good colour, contrast and definition. - Es un buen trabajo.

Saludos cordiales,

Hi Clemente,

Great compo. Sharp and clear and with some good natural light. I think it would be even better if you had some more of that mountain, that's just visible in the background.
Thanks for sharing.

Regards,
Christian
