Hello Giorgio,

I like the strong diagonal in the composition!
The shady part of the street makes an effective contrast with the well lit architecture...
A well balanced composition with sharp fine details, great shades of blue!

Greetings,

Good morning Giorgio,
The tones of blue just flood over this shot giving the shadows a reistance to the shade. good clarity and a well chosen shot. The shadows express the distance of focus point.

Salut Giorgio,

Beau jeu d'ombres et de lumière. J'aime beaucoup la diagonale un peu incurvée qui sépare ombre et lumière et nous guide dans la découverte des belles maisons provençales éclatantes de lumière. Génial, le nom du restaurant " Le lion gourmand" devant les arènes!
Je préfère cette version à celle que tu proposes en WS, dans cette dernière les arènes constituent certes un plus mais je trouve que la proportion de zones plus sombres devient trop importante. Question de goût évidemment.
Amitiés,
Roger

Wonderful architecture of this old town along the street. Good composition and framing. Maybe a little bit to dark in the FG, but nothing serious.
Best wishes,
Achim

Hi Giorgio,
Beautiful morning, the color of the sky is perfect, i really like this color. A dazzle of the morning light has been expertly depicted making a good use of the large shadow in the foreground.
Have a nice day, Hisashi
