Linda captura bem composta de forma elegante, com cores e contrastes bem equilibrados. A luminosidade está estupenda. Excelente trabalho. Um abraço, Consuelo

Hola Charo,
warm light with pleasant clouds. The house gets good light, some pleasant life by people and the water behind makes it complete. Good sharpness and colours.
Lieben Gruss, Ulf

Bonjour Charo
Quelle jolie couleur pour cette habitation. Un rouge-orangé très vif qui s'harmonise très bien bien avec ce ciel bleu et la terre. Architecture attrayante et marginale. Merci de partager.
Amicalement

Hi Charo,
The uniquely colored tomb is seen bathed in beautiful light that highlights its warm colors that contrast strikingly with the vivid blue sky. Wonderful intricate cloud patters put this one over the top.
Regards, Tom

Olá Charo!

Hello Charo,

The colourful structure stands out well in the composition, and contrast well with sky and sea!
The sunlight from a low angle adds warmth, and the human factor is cared for...
A well composed presentation, where the scenery is topped by this fine sky!

Greetings,
Pablo -

Hola Charo,

uma imagem colorida e de brilho intenso. A arquitetura muçulmana está bem presenta na construção. Interessante ficou o contraste do laranja com o bonito céu azul. Bela imagem!
Saludos,
Carlos

Hola Charo,
me gusta el simbolismo en el nuevo uso que se ha dado a este lugar, el diálogo entre civilizaciones. Y me gusta mucho cómo has tratado la luz y el color en la foto, a una hora donde las sombras juegan un buen papel, y los tonos son cálidos y muy agradables.
El cielo tiene una gran belleza, y es un perfecto telón de fondo para el magnífico paisaje que nos muestras en tu composición.
Un gran trabajo, amiga mía.
Un abrazo,
Josep

Hola Charo.

La nota ayuda a ilustrar un lugar desconocido para la mayoría de nosotros.

La composición es sencilla pero muy correcta y el conjunto es una foto atractiva y bien hecha.

Carlos.

Ciao Charo,
un bel edificio per uno scopo nobile, molto bello questo rosso che contrasta con lazzurro del mare, il cielo con le sue belle nuvole e' il tocco finale.
ben fatto

Hola Charo,

I missed your this beautiful photo yesterday. Color of its facade is really eye catching under spectacularly cloudy sky and sea. Great informative notes and workshop posts. I like your "Complementaria" version post a lot too with dark sea and long, broken shadows of visitors on facade. Congratulations. Have a nice new week.

Cordialmente,

Ertugrul

Hola Charo,
The orange color of the ancient Moslem cemetery illuminated by the evening sun in the background of the sea and hovering clouds, is very impressive. The placement of the boat and tourists is also good.
Have a nice day, Hisashi
