As your gallery shows, your sense of good photography is definetely present! Some brilliant pics there! As for this one I'll have to say it's absolutely...............beautiful! The angle you've chosen to take the photo is very good. A very good perspective! You've combined the way the objects look with a very good, very acceptable change. By turning the object in the B/W-sepia direction you added a brilliant sense of history to the picture. If you would have done this with modern skyscrapers, you would have been dead wrong, but you didn't! The houses here are just right for the adjustments you made. And because of this change, the clouds look more dramatic aswell, which, in this case, really fits into the photo. The division between shade and sunshine form a nice, welcome contrast. Now if only the people would wear hats and neat dresses and some oldtimers would have been parked alongside the buildings, I'd swear you travelled back to the 18th century! One smal remark: by holding the camera a bit lower to the ground, the stone lines would probably have had a more intense/drastic sense of perspective. But that could be a matter of taste! Thanks for sharing this beautifully worked out picture with us!
