Fab shot!

I can feel this image…I want to smell the flowers, sipping a cup of tea while watching the scene down below.

Love the composition of the balcony, shutters and flowers , the contrast of the deep blue, beige and cream, the textures of the peeling paint, the shutters slats and the flowers, all expertly captured!

It is a lovely image….Thank you so much for sharing!

Exquisite image!

The subject, the composition, the color and contrasts, all stellar!

I’d love to see the image next level pop by cropping out the portion of the wall jutting out on the bottom center and bringing the top down to the tip of the umbrella while still leaving plenty of the open blue sea for emphasis.

All around fab capture….Thanks so much for sharing!

Nice capture, great composition!

I’d love to see this image next level pop by cropping to the roof line and the bottom of the balcony while still leaving plenty of open sky for emphasis.

Great shot….Thank you so much for sharing!

Excellent shot…Great eye!

Fun, unique and interesting subject partnered with great textures and wonderful contrasts.

Cropping in tight on both sides of the brown railing would pop this great image even more.

Fab capture and thank you so much for sharing!

The simplicity of this image spoke to me.

The contrasts, the light, the shadows, the shapes, the colors, all still and peaceful, soothing and calming, drawing in the eye and calling to the imagination.

I want to know how it came to be.

I want to know what comes next….

Great color!

Cropping this to just the blue building on each side and up from the first floor graffiti would take this image to the next level, really make it pop.

Such a vibrant capture….Thank you so much for sharing!

Lovely capture!

The colors and textures feel surreal, gentle, and peaceful.

I’d love to see this image cropped up to the bottom of the stairs then over to the tree trunk in the left and removing the power lines with a retouch app.

Such a great shot….Thanks for sharing!

Fab capture!

Unique subject and angle, great texture and wonderful contrasts.

I’d love to see this image pop by cropping to the bottom of the balcony, to the left balcony roof line, on the right just past the black corner opening and then down tight to the top of the trellis.

Such a lovely shot….Thanks so much for sharing!

Such a unique find!

I’d love to see the bottom window cropped out and the sides cropped in a bit tighter bringing the eye into the subject of the image and eliminating distractions.

Textures are great…Thank you so much for sharing!
