Photographer’s Note
It’s Not Just Miami, It’s Coral Gables....
Those Who Know, Know The Difference (According to City of Coral Gables website)
The City Beautiful began as a place of art, architecture and culture carved out of the lush tropics. Less than a century later, Coral Gables has matured into a cultural center that would astound even its visionary founder.With its museums, galleries, theaters, gardens, historical sites and other attractions, the Coral Gables cultural landscape is unequaled by any city of its size in the world. Residents can choose from thousands of live and visual arts performances. They can attend one-of-a-kind festivals and visit renowned cultural institutions.When George Merrick founded Coral Gables, he did so with artistic flare. In the 1920s, the Miami Grand Opera performed in a drained Venetian Pool and Paul Whiteman's band entertained poolside dancers under the stars from the half-drained pool - which is an artistic and architectural marvel in its own right.Today's Coral Gables offers an unparalleled array of performing and visual artsSource

Hola Maryori.
Muy buena composición, la definicion y los colores están estupendos, muy buen encuadre de tu excelente foto, las ramas de los arboles producen un buen balance y al mismo tiempo un marco natural.
No sabia que vives en la Florida, voy tres o cuatro veces al año a visitar uno de mis hijos que vive en Coral Gables. Espero verte algún día.
Saludos.

Hi Maryori,
photo so full of details...so many elements of different characteristics mixing in one big amount and creating such a wonderful composition, so rich and vivid.
Trees down there, trees up there, their shadows, windows, architectural elements, a real urban chaos ordening itself in this delightful capture, showing Florida's diversity in wonderful light and most gentle colours.
Hopefully Farah didn't give you to much hard time :P
Wish you lovely day,
Jeri
