View from my balcony on the Rue Montorgueil at 6pm on a beautiful autumn day. This kind of light/color does not happen often and dos not last long...

Great colours and contrasts! I really like the perspective, with a the slightly curved line coming from the end of the street and ending in the top right-hand corner, it gives the shot a great dynamic. However, I think it is too bad you did not use a greater depth of field (the background is too blurry). There was enough light it seems to use a smaller aperture and thus increase the DOF... The alternative would be to set the camera on 'landscape' rather than all automatic.

Beautiful twilight on the buildings and sky colors, perfectly matching together. It makes a very attractive composition. Good framing, with the chimney on the left and the buildings opposite side on a curved diagonal line. Nice sharp details on the right.

Très belle lumière, et joli ciel nuageux !

You have caught some beautiful twilight in this photo. I really like the way the sun is hitting the buildings. I thought that some of the foreground was a bit dark and created a workshop for you.

You have a spectacular view from your balcony!

The light is beautiful! And I like the sloping diagonal of the street. Its a shame that the foreground is so dark - maybe the amount of sky tricked the camera into underexposing the scene?

Great mood in this picture!! I'm so glad i booked an apart here for my next trip to paris, it must be such a great place to stay isn't it?

technically, I would have cropped a bit on the left side, but still great atmosphere!
