[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
The small city of Valderrobres had probably a glorious past, which can been noticed looking at its castle (top of the picture) and other houses there. Now the population is only about 2'000. Valderrobres lies in a middle point between Zaragoza, Barcelona and Valencia, big cities that have "sucked up" the people of this little city located in a montanious territory at the river Matarraña.
The official name of it is Valderrobres but it seems to be difficult to pronounce even for Spaniards. So people call it wrongly Valderrobles. The name means Valley of Oaks.

I really like this, nice composition with the steps sweeping round.

You've got a massive amount of distortion on this, but it seems to fit the shot.

Hi Clemente!

I adore the way in which the stair makes walk my eye in your pict.
Very good contrasts and shoot with my preferred lens!

Hello Clemente,

Excellent usage of wide angle in vertical position. I can say this is beautiful capture as a wide angle shooter and owner of same lens. I like splendid stone texture and colors, tones. A really great view, congratulations.

Best Regards,

Ertugrul

Hola Clemente_
Me ha hecho especial ilusión tu crítica, me alegro que te haya gustado Valderrobles, es un pueblo realmente precioso. Espero ver más fotos tuyas de este lugar.
En cuanto a la foto, me da la impresión de que es la misma calle de la foto que has votado mia, y creo que el jardin ha desaparecido ;(.
La composición es estupenda, y has jugado con los colores para convertir la imagen en intima, antigua y acogedora
Un saludo, vanessa
