Szentendre skyline is dominated by 7 churches!
This one's my favourite! :)
The Othodox Episcopal Cathedral. It's not far from the Parish Church...to be exact it is just right behind me! :))
The Serb colonies that had settled down in the town between the 14th-17th centuries as they were escaping from the Turks built several churches in the town. At first their churches were built from timber, later, as economic life improved, these were replaced in the second half of the 18th century by stone churches built in Baroque style. Surely this one is richly ornamented! :) Especially it's doorway!

PP: I took this shot when the sun was going down. It turned out to be quite moody using a circular polarizer. Again tried to add some more to it with PP.
Duplicated the colour layer and desaturated the upper one. Then I gave it some yellow and magenta and take the opacity of this layer down to 60%! That's it! :)

"A typical Chiquito shot and colours", I thought when I saw the thumbnail and looking at the bottom I saw I was right. Nice when you can see the hand of someone in a picture. Nice job.

Don

Excellent tones on your pic, they give a particular mood to this POV. Well done Tom :)
Martine

You catched a great mood in your shot. And did a very particular PP perfectly fits to it. Thanks :)
Elif

It is very interersing how you see your town ToM! In a certain very retro, nostalgic way, with colours of the early XIX cntr :). Which is why they are great to look at ... The very best spirit of mittel-europa! Bravo.

ComplimentS!

Szia :o)
lovely shot and nice PP.
typically yours as Don said ;o)
personally i like a lot the original reddish colour of the bell tower but have to admit that your shot is much more moody with a nostalgic touch on it :o)
ili

Very nice shot and lovely tones. As said before you have created your own style, which I find very artistic and creative. Great work!

Beautiful shot Tom, and your PP work is simply great - a wonderful result - that gray sky with the rich subdued colours make for a great work of art ... Sam

Another great capture... I would like to see a very old woman walking towards the camera using the rail for support. Very well captured, Tom!

olá!
a luz tem nesta foto qualquer coisa que chama muito a minha atenção. a utilização do polorizador em conjunto com o pós-tratamento contribui e muito para um belo resultado final.
o casario com a igreja ao fundo encanta.
Bom trabalho.
Luci.

Went through the pictures you posted while I was away on vacation and despite the fact that I really like the one from Otago, I had to leave a comment on this one. This is another beautiful picture of your hometown showing all of its beauty. The light is superb as are the colours. Excellent!

very nice work Tom,

Colour are nice and dark tones indeed add a different mood.
Good perspective too.

Well done!

take care, Stef :))

Hi ToM,
Excellent composition!
The colour tones and detail are amazing!
Well done :)

Nice treatment on this shot, Tom! Good combination of polarizing and PP work. I have to remember that... TFS!

tom,
I think the color profile of this shot is great.it resembles pale memories,searching our minds;the streets of our childhoods where we play ball games on streets or ride our bikes.great mood here,
regards

Your photography is truly wonderful :)
