Hello Mario

Is that what they call this tower?
I was visiting the Isle of Wight 2 years ago and I saw this strange shape tower when we sailed out from Port Solent.
You seem to have captured a very alternative view of this tower.
About the back lighting, was this the setting sun of just some floodlighting? I'm guessing it is sunlight but I just can't be sure.
The lightpost could proparbly have been omitted, I feel it is just a distraction from the beauty of the tower.

Forse ne stai mettendo troppe sullo stesso soggetto, ma continuo ad apprezzare questa bella e fotogenica torre, in questo caso hai ripreso in modo eccellente molte sfumature di colore sia del cielo che della torre, bello anche il lampione inserito a contrasto, complimenti.
Ciao

Hi Mario,

Another great shot of the tower. The thing that I like on this one is the backlighting which highlights the figure of the tower and the different lines and curves.
TFS!

Hi Mario,

lovely blue hour shot of the spinnaker. The lampost is a bit distracting but I guess not always easy to leave out when you're looking for a specific pov? A really fine shot with some beautiful blue tones. Well captured.

Regards

Stephen
