Cesky Krumlov Catholic Church, a photo from Jihocesky, Bohemia

Photographer's Note

Considering the strong backlight here, I thought the colour showed up remarkably well in this shot of the old St. Vitus catholic church in Cesky Krumlov. The Fall colours are evident and the red car has found a perfect place to park away from the tourist crowds.

Bonjour, cher Chris,
Belle présentation de la ville et de cet édifice religieux.
Quant à la voiture, je ne sais pas comment a fait le conducteur pour en descendre côté arbre et comment il procède pour sortir !!!
Peu importe, le sujet est de toute beauté.
Amitiés.
Philippe

Hello Chris,
It's generally a very nice view from this pretty little town, but the most striking feature is the way almost all colours harmonize. There is autumn all over, including the roofs and walls. Even the church tower fits the colour scheme well. And with that red car you didn't even need a lady in red. It's a kind of postcard view, but a professional postcard photographer would probably not get the idea of taking a photo here.
Best regards,
Gert

Hi Chris
Excellent scene, so well captured with awesome autumn outfit with the towering steeple gives it a bit of magic. The red car clicks the eye as appropriate, lends a total balanced compo. A very well taken image, Congrats.
Best regards

Hello Chris,
The church rising above the rooftops is well framed. I like very much the warm lights and pastel tones. Like Philippe, I am intrigued as to how the car leaves its parking space, some intricate manoeuvres would seem to be called for.

Bonjour Chris,

La voiture rouge attire le regard. La prise de vue permet de voir les détails des maisons et de l'église. La lumière met en valeur les couleurs de l'image. Bonne journée.

Hello Chris,
The case with Berlin's new comers from israel is well known for the last 4 years, cost is one good reason, right about it.
As for this picture, typical Czeck style, which a similar neighborhood I saw in Prague.
Beautiful combination of the houses in beige and yellow with the towers on the backdrop.
Leaves on the ground added nice vivid tones.
Good night,
Ike

Bonjour Chris,

Bien sur, ce clocher qui domine le paysage urbain est magnifique mais il ne faut pas oublier les maisons autour ainsi que cette belle petite voiture sous son arbre.

Amicalement

Hello Chris,
This photo prepares us for the coming autumn, which looks also appealing again with the yellow leaves on and underneath the tree. The town looks very appealing and charming and you composed the view perfectly.

Ciao Chris
ottimo taglio verticale per una composizione con soggetti prevalentemente verticali, partendo dall'albero e arrivando alle due belle torri.
Saluti
Carlo

Hi Chris
Cesky Krumlov is on our agenda for next year - hope it isn't too crowded.
You've managed the light very well to get the foreground colours beautifully without a blown out sky.
cheers
Ian

Congratulations, Chris with your 3.333rd picture on this site!
What an incredibly high number of photos and taken in so many different countries.
With this picture you take us already to autumn while I'd still like to stay a bit longer in summer :)
The colours are rendered well. Lots of beautiful soft tones all over the photo. The red car makes an exception.
Wonderful tower of the church.
I like the small white clouds in the right upper corner very much.
Best regards, Paul

Hello Chris,

beautiful composition. Charming view of the nicely painted houses, beautiful tower of the church. All in pleasant warm pastel colors. The red car is a nice bonus. The colour palette is fantastic.

Kind regards Malgo

macjake (98260) 2018-08-31 5:09

Hi Chris
yes, I remember this charming town very well. It was like a story-book town or some sort of fairy-tale make believe land.
Photo opps are everywhere. You couldn't have come away with a better shot than this, it honestly really is A+ all the way. The red car...well thats a true bonus! love the pastel colors on the buildings, it goes with the autumn scene so well. One of your best photos - truly. cheers
Craig

chris

the shapes of the tower looks different; I liked the way you used the chimney and the golden tree as elements to enhance the beauty of the area.

take care
jorge
