View of Toledo from a vista point Photo

Photographer’s Note

This view of Toledo was breathtaking. Toledo is about an hour's drive from Madrid. Known the world over for its "Toledo Swords", its my favorite city in Spain.

Nice POV and composition. The river add nice contrast to the large city, good work.

Hi Gopal,

I am not spending much time on here at the moment, but I hope to see you posting frequently and improving with the help of the people here...

I noticed the subtle changes you made to the contrast and the sharpness of your picture...I think you have done well to make these small changes.
However, I feel that you could have stepped aside slightly to avoid those huge bits of foliage in the foreground. I think they distract from the main image and throw the balance of your picture off somewhat. I think you could probably get away with cropping off at least an inch of the bottom to eliminate the bush on the right - perhaps you could go all the way up to the bottom of that wall...this way, the other bush almost blends into the land. I think your main point of interest here is the mass of buildings, so it would be good for you to lead my eyes straight to them.

Anyhow, what do I know - I prefer to take pictures of people... :)

Welcome to TE...

Hi Gopal,

Toledo is one city I did not visit while I lived in spain. Your view here shows me that I missed out on a beautiful city. Your POV here is a common one but a winner noen the less. Your photo here shows good clarity and colors as well.

TFS,
Rob
