Hi Achim.
What a strong light....possibly too difficult for me. A nice POV, a lit bit classical, but always lovely.
My compliments!

Guten Morgen, Achim!
Mal etwas aus der Heimat. Dort habe ich auch schon gesessen...
Du hast hier ein wunderschönes Licht gehabt, das die Konturen des Gebäudes richtig herausarbeitet. Der Polfilter hat gute Arbeit geleistet. Vielleicht hättest Du aber den Kirchturm etwas "richten" können.
Grüße aus dem recht kühlen Siegerland!

Hi Achim,
A classic German style church on a cosy looking square. People sitting outside tells that it was a warm spring day. Exposure is darkish though.

Achim,
Excellent view of this fine church. The angle of the shot is nice giving the scene depth and direction. The lighting and colors are great with nice sharpness and detail. The deep blue sky provides a great backdrop for the scene.

Hi Achim,
The presence of the people has an effect of scale. The point of view is allowing us to see the deatils and colors of the architecture of St-Laurentius church. The trees are framing well the church. The nice blue sky is sending a lighting that is enhancing the colors of the picture. Have a nice day.

Hello Achim,
A superb blue sky and impressive church which arise very well under this sky. Good framing too with the peoles which give an element of life and an idea of the scale. Good photowork.
Best regards,

Hallo Achim,
Good capture with a good framing, which catches the elegance of this church and its geometry under a great light and a few shades that increase its shapes and volumes.
The colors are splendid.
An excellent work.
Friendly regards,

An excellent capture of this church. The POV is really well chosen and the colours are nice and well saturated. The church also stands out nicely against the very blue background. Good photo work!

Hello Achim,
The strong blue adds an extra attention value, the pola filter did the job well!
I like the details in the architecture, the point of view works well and adds fine lines to the composition...

Hello Achim,
Beautiful sight on this imposing church with original architecture. The polarizing filter emphasizes well contrasts in this image. I love much this crowd sitting around the church which seems to benefit from the heat of the ray of the sun. Thank you Achim for the photograph in WS which makes us benefit from the smoothness of the mural decorations.
With all my friendships and a very good evening,
Jean-Charles

Hi Achim,
St Laurentius would be my saint if i was into religion! Nice polarized colors, sharp details. The shadow line in the FG is also ok to me.
