Hi John

Superb sharpness & good use of diminishing linear perspective & vanishing point. Good color, contrast, & lighting. Tfs!

Hi John Tulopoulos (this is the right spelling of your greek surname... lol...),

What a lovely photo!
The alley looks so nice with the tree in the background and the white houses with the roof! It seems so narrow,b ut full of tradition. Well done, my friend!

ps1. Do you know what Helen's surname is? Dimitropoulos... lol...
ps2. You want to make us come in Holland for holidays? Why don't YOU come in Greece...???

What a cozy nice old place, John:)
The decentered composition is perfect.
Nice textures... the tiling, the pavement and the brick walls ..!
Great colours! That ochre and green are go very well together!
thank you for posting this and have a wonderful day, Karina:)

Hi John. This view is nice. The leading lines of the road and building take my eye inward to explore the photo. Nice work!

The composition is very effective here. This lane which take us to the gantry is well inviting. Beautiful contrasts and textures. I like much these ochre slate roofs. These houses have a great character! Cheer! Annie

Hello Oom John, please make a booking for one decrepit Aussie when you make yours, looks like the kind of place where we could escape from the noisy ones.
Wonderfully captured once again and so very well displayed with the mini upright. Excellent lines and textures and the colours are perfect. TFS

PS Many thanks for your kind comments and email regarding Bug Eyed

The crop enhances the narrowness of the alley. Nice atmosphere and architecture.

'Diepgang' in Belgie; het kan dus ;)
Mooie steeg voor een snelle plas.
Mooi John.
Zou jij niet meedoen aan de handen-uitdaging hier; als er iemand is die werkende handen beroepsmatig kan filmen, ben jij het wel. Van de week zag ik een dameshaarwassing; geweldig om bij te staan. Een mooie kop met ogen dicht, douche erop en jij erop met de camera; bedacht ik ineens.
Groet
Huub

He John,

Gekker moet het niet worden. Helemaal je hart in Kortrijk verloren en op zoek naar het straatje van wie weet wie.
Wel moet je de huizen rechtop zetten. Het helt naar links. Ik zou de bomen afgeknipt hebben.
Maar uh, het is wel een goei sterke prent.
Nu maar weer op het rechte pad.

Just perfect, and a very artistic view, John. Love that blue door. (it's what we call "dutch blue," coincidentally.)

Hi John, I can of course think of plenty ways how my models will enhance your picture... har har har har! But we dont want to dish out heart attacks...

The perspective of your pic is great... I like all the brick and paint lines leading to the door. I think you have done well! My girls would only be a distraction :)

John I like this shot alot, the pretty little houses seem very cozy and tight knit, very nice DOV. The trees in the back hold the houses in attention, and we focus on them. I wish I got to travel as much as you do. :)

Keep posting so I can travel with you. ;)

Biance.

Prachtig John ,hier moet ik meteen denken aan "Kapitein Zeppos".een vlaamse jeugdserie uit de jaren 60 waar ik gek op was,dit lijkt sterk op zijn huis.
