Torres de Jerez, a photo from Cadiz, Andalucia

Photographer's Note

Hello friends and colleagues, today I offer you this composition with architecture of my city, especially the towers of an interesting church. I hope you like it, then some letters about my city.

Jerez de la Frontera (more commonly known as, exclusively Jerez) is a city and municipality in the province of Cádiz, in the autonomous community of Andalucía (Spain). The phrase "of the Frontier" refers to the Granada border. It is the most populated urban nucleus with the largest urban land in the province and the fifth in Andalusia. It is located to the south of the Iberian Peninsula, located 15 km from the Atlantic Ocean and 100 km from the Strait of Gibraltar. Located in a central position and well connected in the province, they have become the main hub of communications and one of the logistics and transport centers of western Andalusia. Its size and capacity for growth have given it greater economic dynamism than that of the provincial capital. It is internationally known for the namesake wine, since it is located in a fertile area for agriculture and livestock. Its municipal term occupies an extension of 1,188.14 km² that extend on the valley of the Guadalquivir. The municipality of Jerez has been the largest in Andalusia until the secession of San José del Valle in 1995, as of that moment, it is the second, just behind Córdoba, and seventh in Spain. In addition, it includes a wide extension of the Natural Park of the Alcornocales and the Sierra de Gibalbín, known as Montes de Propio de Jerez. It is one of the two main cities of the metropolitan area of the Bay of Cádiz-Jerez, third urban conglomerate of Andalusia and one of the most economically and industrially active. In addition, Munipio is a member of the Commonwealth of Municipalities of the Bay of Cádiz. It is the episcopal seat of the Diocese of Asidonia-Jerez, which covers the north of the province of Cádiz, taking the Guadalete River as a natural frontier. On May 27, 2009 the Parliament of Andalusia unanimously approved the declaration of the municipality under the regime of organization of the law 8/08 Cities of large population, known as the law of large Andalusian cities. Much of the historic center of the city is of Cultural Interest with the name of Artistic Historic Site: Casco Antiguo de Jerez de la Frontera.

Hello Angel,
A very nice photo of these two small and charming twin towers. You framed them very nicely with the façades at right and the trees at left. The colours are most attractive too and I very much like the lovely pastel tones in the bright sunlight.

Hello Angel,
It's a very nicely composed and cleverly cropped photo. The towers are are quite beautiful, but what I especially like here are the matching colours of the different buildings. The blue sky and green trees contrast nicely the various tones of brown, yellow and pink.
Kind regards,
Gert

Hello Angel,
A very appealing composition from your home town. The beautiful church towers to which we are guided by the pastel pink façades on the right make a delightful focal point. Very good technical realisation.

Hi Angel
this is a very 'pretty' scene, a well thought out composition. there are no clouds in the sky, so using the green leaves on the left to fill out the remainder of the frame works well.
and the pink/reds are such a fine colour, we don't see that very often. classic architecture, nicely chosen. cheers
Craig

PaulVDV (49028) 2018-03-21 14:53

Hello Angel,
The different colours and the contrasts they create, make this picture very attractive.
Well composed and excellently cropped.
Best regards, Paul

Royaldevon (64434) 2018-03-21 15:50

Hola Angel,

You have cropped the scene very effectively to draw attention to the repeating balconies on the the pretty, pink frontage and the tall, angled towers of the church.
Buildings either side has created a funnel effect, guiding us naturally into the scene, which is sharply captured with strong colours.

My warm regards,
Bev :-)

Very beautiful shot of two twin towers. They nicely built with bricks and colorful shingles. The house on the right made good long perspective. Great picture with perfect quality.
