Villages, Towns and Cities Viewed from Afar

January 2022

Judge winner

Here is a beautiful photo, and, like many photos taken here, it is dreamy. I like the panoramic format, the unreal atmosphere between the light of the setting sun and the mist delicately placed in the background. I also like the soft colors of the houses ... I don't know this place, but I think that life here is sweeter and less dependent on the rest of the world. Thank you for this image and for participating in my challenge

I find this view absolutely magnificent. The photo is very worked, both for the shooting and after. It could also have been my first choice, but it turns out that my crush is more on a small corner of the world than on a huge city. But this second place is well deserved, so thank you for participating in my challenge and for having embellished it with this magnificent photo.

A small village in Drôme Provençale, a beautiful sky, houses in the distance on a hill: it is an idyllic landscape of olive trees and vines, where - in these times of pandemic - we can dream of living another life. That's why I love this exotic and refreshing image. Well done for this great place and thank you for taking part in my challenge.

In this challenge devoted to seeing a city or a village from afar, the real question I ask myself is: "Do I want to live there?" The answer must be "yes", but of course, first the beauty of the photography must make me decide to leave everything to see this landscape, this village or this city. And that's exactly what I feel looking at this image, a very beautiful photo, certainly already awarded, but that I find well in the theme. And this is my choice. Congratulations and a thousand times thank you for your participation in my first challenge

It is unusual to see photos of towns and villages taken from afar in black & white. But here I particularly appreciate the sky, well crafted - and the meticulous care to represent the buildings in all shades of gray. Congratulations on this image and thank you for participating in my challenge.

I also admire this landscape. Simple and really very beautiful. Not only is the composition of the image perfect, but - in addition - there emerges from this image an atmosphere of serenity and infinite respect for nature and for the people who live here. I congratulate you on your talent as a photographer and thank you for your participation.
