Donald this is very nice. The foreground cross fills the frame nicely just as the morning ( could be late afternoon I am not sure ) light strikes across the scene. A famous place in Santa Barbara. I like it. Good work!

Hi Donald,

Great shot and what a beautiful composition with the cross in the foreground and the church in the background. This whole scene is soaked in beautiful bright colours which really works great here! Excellent work with beautiful details, Donald!

Greetings,
Ann

Hi, Donald! What a nice composition! I like your point of view, the cloudy sky, mixing deep blue and grey, and the great architecture! Well done! TFS! Best regards! Miguel.

Hi Don - Great combination of the cross in the foreground and the church in the background - this gives the photo a nice sense of depth, as well as emphasizing the religous nature of the place. Well done!

Hi Donald, Wonderfully composed photo, your POV is excellent low down to elongate the cross & the way you have snugly fitted the Mission into it looks great, clear, well focused & superb colours, an overall very good shot, kind regards Wilson.

Hi Don,
Well composed in the vertical format, with fine lighting and shadow effects. The low angle POV works well here in highlighting the cross so well, balancing the main mission facade. The soft light is enhancing. A pity about the blank white sign, but that was beyond your control. A fine captured, Don. Cheers.

Hi Donald,
The elements here are all well-placed. You've captured Mission Santa Barbara very well! I can also tell it's Christmastime because of the Nativity scene in front. Thanks for sharing this photo!

Hello Don! Very well composed here! Not only did you find some lovely light for this scene, it is also well balanced and well cropped. I also like your deep depth of field here. Nice work!
