Really nice colours and a good capture. The green bag on the arm of the other guy balances the picture in an interesting way.

Hi Gert,
Good picture of the nice colours we see in Cape-Verdean towns, like in Mindelo, for example.

Indeed you have managed to capture the typical elements of this place with its style of architecture. The delicious pastel colours catch the eyes adding the local flovour, vibrancy, atmosphere and vitality which is further beautified by great lighting. It' well captured from nice pov. Well done. TFS

Hello Gert,
this street scene looks so graphic and attractive and it's not only the colours that make it so, but also the shadows, in my opinion. I like how the perspective leads us to the people and then goes on into an unknown place. The two men are close to each other and are excellently placed at spots where they don't hide interesting features of the facades. I wonder if there's going to be some sort of interaction when they meet. Congratulations and thank you!
All the best, have a great evening,
Ourania

Hi Gert,

The presence of the persons is adding life to the scene. The point of view is showing the details of the colourful houses. It is clear and precise. Have a nice day.
