You have to be good at chess to play so publicly. Interesting scene with the large castle dominating.

Hi Aleksander,
Even though it is scanned, it is not behind any digital. The buildings, and the castle are looking great. Wonderful shot showing daily life at Salzburg.
Good colors and saturation.

Hi Aleksander,
Good Salzburg daily life scene, on top of showing the nice architecture of the place! Excellent framing and POV, good sharpness... slighly noisy sky but nothing really disturbing.

Hello Aleksander
Good POV and framing to get the'chess board', people on the bench on both sides, and high upto the fortress... realistic colors and sharpness.
Cheers

Hi Aleksander,
An interesting and absorbing scene. There is much for the eye to take in here, and I like the way the various onlookers are relaxedly enjoying the match. The couple on the bench with the bicycle propped up could not be sitting any further apart - perhaps they are strangers. I like the various layers of interest above the foreground activity, with the green foliage adding good contrast to the scene. A very fine shot, well scanned.

Hello Aleks
Interesting & different view of Salzburg. The castle dominates the scene as it soars up above the colourful houses & the greens. Well done!
