[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Built in 1916, the Clock Tower Quay was originally called the Victoria Pier after the British monarch. One side of the quay was higer to accommodate ocean-going vessels, while the other, lower side served riverboats. A series of warehouses was built along the quay, behind the Clock Tower. The tower itself was built in 1922 to honour the mariners who perished at sea during the First World War.

Hi Robert

Very nice and interesting vertical shot of this clock tower. Great exposure, very fine colors and lighting. The person who seat on the bench is a very nice addition and gives a clue for the sife of the tower.

Very pronounced vertical here Robert..good use of the vertical format for this. The compo with the shrub covering more than half of the frame is a good idea. Excellent contrasts & clarity

Une image bien composee avec une bonne perspective. L'horloge est bien place sur la droite et contraste bien avec le ciel bleu. Bonne inclusion de la personne assise sur un banc.
Amicalement

Very nice composition, friend.
The POV and the colors are superb. The woman´s red hat is a nice element. The clock tower is very beautiful, Robert.

Très bonne composition avec le blanc immaculé de la tour contre le vert et le bleu profonds des arbres et du ciel.
Le petit chapeau rouge fait sourire et ressortir la grandeur de l'ensemble.
Au plaisir.

Hello Robert,
This is a fine composition with good lines!
I like the strong colours, and the perspective on the tower...
Very good details, and the red hat does a lot of good for the presentation!
Greetings,

Hi Robert,
Beautiful saturated blue sky and sharp details to the clock tower. This photo is very well framed with the trees and lone person on the bench lookint in the direction of the tower.
Regards, Tom

Bonsoir Robert

Une de tes vieilles photos mais qui est excellente. Une belle perspective ici.
Le lampadaire tout près à gauche et la tour horloge au loin à droite créent un effet intéressant.
Ces arbres cadrent bien la gauche et guide mon regard vers l'horloge.
Cette personne avec sa casquette rouge nous donne une référence quant à la taille de cette «clock tower».
J'aime aussi le ton de bleu du ciel; il s'harmonise bien avec le vert des arbre et le blanc pur de la tour.
Bien vu et bien capté

Amicalement
Denis!
