Hello Kari, You are like a magician, explaining his secrets!😆 This is a fine series, with excellent sharpness on the Fancy Garden sculptures. I think we all enjoy reflections and this is just a little different! Have a good day, Bev :-)

Hello Pierre, I hope you won't be upset by my suggestion but, to me, you would have had a much better shot, had you cropped the oe, concentrating more on the focal birds. They are so delightful. I have done a little w/s to show what I mean. Have a lovely day, Bev :-)

Hello Pierre, There is very little to suggest that this is church. I wonder if you have taken the photograph from this viewpoint to add the lusciousness of the greenery, to give more interest to the building. The photograph is sharp, with a nicely angled, uphill viewpoint. My warm regards, Bev :-)

Hello Jean, Fishing boats and their catches must be so much the tradition of these small fishing villages. This scene is certainly worthy of your time and attention and how the two men interact. I love how the tractor and the boat are set against the rugged, sea-worn rocks. If you don't mind, I would suggest that if you crop the f/g, up to the line of the seaweed, the whole operation comes much closer, whilst the rocks look even more formidable. The w/s give a good prelude to the action. Have a good day, Bev :-)

Hello David, The boat and its elderly rowers are very nicely angled across the frame, with a wake, suggesting speed across the water. Perhaps just a little soft in the focus. My warm regards, Bev :-)

Hello Craig, You are right, this is so different from your previous shot, this one looking more like a map. We can certainly appreciate the different geometric shapes and how the greenery relates to the man-made structures. My warm regards, Bev :-)

Hola Luis, This lovely statue of Diana is very well placed in your frame, Diana proudly positioned against the sky. It is so impressive in its height and position that the surrounding buildings, in the b/g, all take on on a very secondary role. As always, your exposure is very good, the focal details sharp, with good, well saturated colours. My warm regards, Bev :-)

Hello Paul, Your photographs all show us how steep the streets of Olvera can be! I love what you have done with the main photograph, giving this religious building its very own halo! You have also been able to show the church in a glow of light. The approaching stairway is in shadow but when we meet the church .... sunlight! Lovely! Have a good day, Bev :-)

Hello Piotr, You show how the town is safely protected by the mountains behind. The gap in the mountains makes a perfect opportunity for us to explore deeper into the scene. (Is this gap where the river flows?) A well judged composition of this new-to-us area. My warm regards, Bev :-)

Hello Murat, I like this sculpture very much. It seems in perfect keeping with the setting. I like how its jade green colouration stands out so well against the brighter, pea greens of the surroundings. You have composed the shot well; the sculpture nicely placed off-centre, standing sharply against a useful, blurred b/g. My warm regards, Bev :-)
