Photographer's Note
Granada, seen from the belltower of Nuestra Señora de las Mercedes church, with the cathedral and lake Cocibola in background.
The city, the most visited of Nicaragua, was founded by the Spaniard captain Francisco Hernández de Córdoba in 1524, being the oldest city in the country and one of the first cities founded in the American continental territory.

Hello Pedro,
The church rising up above the rooftops makes an impressive focal point. Lights and colours are excellent. Superb rendering of the textural detail in that sea of roofs.

Hello Pedro,
I really like that foreground with lots of red roofs to present that beautiful and impressive church. Perhaps it's a cathedral?
Very nice with its yellow facades and red domes.
The hazy mountains and the water make a beautiful background. Is it the sea or one of those big lakes of Nicaragua?
Best regards, Paul

Hello Pedro, a very beautiful church emerging from the pan tiled roof tops.
An interesting point of view, where were you standing to take this shot?
Excellent depth of field.

Hi Pedro
Wonderful view over the rooftops to this fine and impressive cathedral. The effect of the design of the rooftops makes the foreground look like an open square thronged with people in the thumbnail view. You did really well with what looks like difficult light too.
Cheers

Hello Pedro, There is similar view on TE, so I suppose you made the opicture from the tower. I like these beautiful roofs and the church emerging from there. it is interesting that this church has a kind of balcony. Nice symmetric towers and the red dome. Lovely composition.

Hello Pedro,
Tus fotos de las iglesias de Nicaragua son muy bellas. Esta es mi favorita. Me gustan todos los techos, y los brillantes colores. Podemos ver el lago, también, y es una escena muy linda.

Uma vista bem famosa mas muito bonita. Gosto muito da composição. É difícil subir até esta torre?
