Hola Ricardo, bueno - no se si puedo criticar en Castellano, si nada esta correcto, díme :o) No he visitado a Argentina, pero naturalmente queiro conocer esta pais hermosa, algun dia vengo. Este photo parace un poco a Berlin, la pared fermosa con todos los pinturas diffrentes, como este foto tuyo. El perspectivo esta bien y los colores son buonitos, pero el cielo esta bastante blanco (o bianco? no se;o). Al fin - Me gusta mucho

Ricardo:

Excelente el motivo, buena foto. Me gustaria que tomes un close up del muro pintado, creo que seria un buen motivo y los colores serian grandiosos. Un abrazo.

wellcome to TE Riccardo :) I know it is late but recently I cannot follow up the gallery much..
Neruda was enough to attract my attention but this is also a very nice picture with very good notes..thanks...
I would try to crop a lot from top..(I don't know if Line or Cesar wrote the same)..the street wall painting is very beautiful and very South American for me..I would love the picture focused on it more..
anyhow :) very nice and thanks again..

ps. one more thing; I really recommend to turn on your "open to workshops" option..it is very good to see and learn from other's eyes in you pictures..
