Hi TL Friends,

Sorry for the delay in posting a photo. After our trip from Austria, I need to sort out over 2500 photos!!! Time is also limited because I returned back to work.. :(((
This one I took from high above a 360degree tower in Innsbruck.

Enjoy!
Constantinos

Excellent capture my friend. The depth in the picture with the layering is great, as well a the colors and the sharpness. Well done.

Marvellous photograph of these twin towers. Your light is so beautiful with in background the Austrian Alps. I like much the colors and their naturalness especially the green-gray of the copper of the domes of the pinnacles of the turns.

2500 photographs, we will have well pleasure. Good courage for the resumption of work.

2,500 photos... Wow Κώστα, Ann will not believe this ;o)).
Anyway, Nice view here. I like the way the tele flattened the scene. Nice, tight crop too. TFS

Good geometry; I'd use a larger aperture for more blur in background.

Hi Constantinos
Perfect expossure imo. Though would like to see some more green for those trees in the bg. Because it will enhance the towers colour.

Hello Constantinos,
The tele compression works well in creating a 3D feeling, making the towers really stand out!
Well framed and with fine details, presented in an attractive tight composition!

Hello Constantinos

A well composed shot of these two towers.The image is well focused with good detail.Good use of lighting .The colours are very good. TFS

Rob

I like the symmetry in this image Constantinos. Also, your POV provides a nice sense of depth to the frame. I think your use of the foreground enhances that sense.

Hi Constantinos,
I'm lagging behind in your postings...This is a perfect "Two Tower" shot (Did you read the book/see the movie?). The perspective is excellent in this picture even like the colours and lighting. An impressive photo! Well done my friend, TFS!

Hi Cons, wow! 2,500 photos :) You have enough to last for the next decade ;))

Great composition on the heritage clock tower. Really well captured, from pov and distance of subject/camera ratio! Great colour and white balance. The mountains make a nice backdrop.

Take care, Yan :)
