hi Sergio, wonderful shot , goodgame of shadow adn sinshine. Excelent motive and coloures.
Marjan

Sergio,

Your sky has good tonality, and I think the composition is interesting with the placement of the towers as they are. But the harsh dark shadows are very distracting- did you shoot this is RAW? You might be able to bring back in some of your details in the shadows using curves. If you decreased the shadow areas to above 20 you should be able to see some detail there. Also you might try cropping it in just past the last tower in the distance- the empty space on the right hand side is a wee bit distracting.

Welcome to TE- I hope you post more from Zaragoza as I've never been there or even heard of it!

sergio

beautiful colors and light. I visited this place but I dodn´t remember these walls, I think all that place were being restored

I don't remember this palace from the time I was at Zaragoza. Maybe La Basílica del Pilar stole all my attention... And my cousin's wedding of course!

Saludos a mis primas por si también ellas están enganchadas a esto de viajar sin moverse del asiento

Me gustro muchisimo esta compo Sergio !!!
el DOF esta buenisimo, dandole una buena perspectiva a la composicion. Y estoy en desacuerdo con Kristi que las sombras distraen, mas bien, ayudan para darle perspectiva y voulmen a los elementos.

abrazos
Edgar.

Hola SERGIO,

interesante toma, desde una perspectiva muy original. Lo que no me termina de convencer son esos colores tan intensos, ya que hacen que la foto no parezca del todo real. Quizá con un poco menos de saturación en el cielo la foto ganaría.

Saludos y muchas gracias por compartir la foto.
Sergio.
