[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
A medieval city unchanged for centuries, Assisi rests peacefully protected by massive city walls and a pervasive serenity of spirit. Beautiful medieval architecture is preserved in the rosy-colored stone houses, which line the city's roadways and intertwining streets. Assisi has given the world many great figures, most notably Saint Francis, a monk who founded of the Franciscan order and sparked a revolution in the Catholic Church during the 12th century. Other of Assisi's renowned denizens include Saint Clare, Latin poet Sextus Propertius, writer-historians Antonio Cristofani, Francesco pennacchi and Arnaldo Fortini, and painters Tiberio d'Assissi and Dono Doni. Today, Assisi remains an important pilgrimage site, and a point of convergence for religious conferences and festivals especially among the Italian youth. However, the city is admired and adored by a variety of reverent visitors, regardless of their religion or religiosity.

Hi Tsilla

I like the composition with the arcs and the sky that work fine here..
Good DOF, everything is in sharp focus and the texture of the walls are great..
Maybe a crop just in the line of the down roof could improve the image.. just a though..

Hi, Tsilla. Nice job with the composition here. By bringing in the arc above to balance the little arcs below was a excellent idea. The blue sky and the texture of the bricks add to the visual impact.Nice note as usual. Cheers.
