Nice POV, and good PP work, just enough to give this image a certain dose of irreality. If I want ot be a nit-picker (hey, you know me!), I'd say you cut the bottom corner of the wall decoration. OK, it's out of my system and I feel much better. Lovely picture, Marija!

Hello marija,

I like the dreamlike effect of your photo. Your point of view and composition is very good. I too, also use Paint Shop pro X and utilize the clarify tool to also get this effect.

Very well seen Marija. I like the soft, muted colours and the changing tones in the sky.

Aha, that "clarify" again, I can tell that by that glow around edges on the photo and I must admit that I don't like it and some new layer with gaussian blur would do a better job.
But your photos are always good and with nice story, like here. Compo is very nice, as well as the colors. You selected a proper time of day for this, congratulations!

Interesting and cool color and light effect created here with your pp work! The house looks a little bit like a doll house! I see the little Marija playing with it! Cute! Well done! Michel

Charming photo! Great POV and very soft colors. I would like to live in this house, there to make pretty dreams under the soft light of the lamp. Very good Marija work

Great presentation! It have a rich style! The angle is extrême but i enjoy! We have the impression to be smaller then nature in face of that! :)

I like it just the way it is...becouse it captures the moment before sunset...when it's not night...not day...no red light...a kind of nothing moment...so misterous...

I like the effect of the clarify process. Very nice composition of the lamp. The colours are unique.

Excellent pp, whatever it was. The detail is superbly preserved and presented, including the fine detail of the textured wall below. Any softness is very minimal.
The colours chosen by the owner/town council/ architect/whoever is just lovely and I do like the fact that the necessary drainpipe ugliness is blended in.
Strong POV/tilt and a nice enough sky behind.

Hello Marija, yes your town looks a bit like Szentendre in style! :) Great shot, chosen a nice angle for the composition! And yes, I feel a bit soft at some part but since it was on purpose I don't comment that part :)))
cheers Marija and remember.... you're still young! :)))))

I missed that one!!!

Your composition is science. Look at those lines! Fantastic. Great angle.

nit-pick: You noise reduction left some weird marks the left dark area. Try the PS blur toll over it. It should eliminate some of the texture.

Have a good weekend Marija!

I feel like I am in wonderland. Overall impact of picture is very smooth. The only thing i don’t want to see in this picture is the reflection of the pipe on the top right corner of window … but everything else is so nice, that I can actually completely avoid that reflection. :)

Hello again !

The more I work on TL, the more I seem to miss great works !

How could I miss this one ! This PP reminds me a technique that our fellow member Fernando Machado fer uses quite often. And I love it!

Superb details of this old house. The PP is really helping popping out the stunning details and woodworks of the facade.

Congratulations,
Robert
