Hi Joao
Very nicely done. Good POV that has the Christ statue against the clouds. The clouds have some movement in them or so it seems which adds to the effectiveness of this shot.

Hi Joao,
Great atmosphere and dramatic effect with those streaked clouds. Good use of wide angle enhancing the feeling of the structure. Your black and white conversion looks good.

Hola Joao,
first a great wide angle perspective, second the main effect is that his arms are prolonged by the clouds, he seems to be in interaction with nature as a policeman is with traffic.
Good one,
Cheers Chris
