[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
According to some autors, Ljubljana was named after an ancient city deity that the early Slavs called Laburus. Others maintain that the name derives from Latin and that the city was named after a flooding river "aluviana", or that the name derives from the word "Laubach", meaning "a swamp". Those who like the playwright and historian Anton Tomaž Linhart - are fond of the city believe that its name can only derive from the Slavic word "luba", meaning beloved.
Sincerely I prefer the last theory!

Hello Francis,
Well seen street shot with nice color combinations and architectural details. I think It could be better If you have added contrast.
Any way I like it

I really like the pov and the crop. The colors and detail are excellent. Such a pretty place!! Very clean and well maintained. TFS

Hi Francis Xavier ,
I appreciate the crop here not showing any sky , i believe it wasn't adding to the shot i presume , it seems overcast , the person is a great addition but a little more room to his left perhaps , an old town atmosphere emanates from this street scene , a city i enjoyed too , tfs,
Carol

Hi Francis,

I know this street very well. When I was at university I passed here every day (lots of great pubs here). Very beautiful POV and great perspective. Excellent composition and colours.

And yes...I prefer the last theory too :)

Have a nice evening,

Hi Francis,
Very sharp and clear shot. Perhaps not the most interesting of subjects but you've made it work to your advantage, no signs of any perspective distortion either. Great natural colours and exposure. Good job.

TFS,
Scott.

Hello Francis,

Wonderful flair, nice colors and great sharpness of the street shot!
Good POV and nice way of presenting the picture with helpful short note.

Thanks for sharing.

Paras Bhalla

Hello Francis,

I agree with you!
It is beloved.
I like the the details of the houses, perticularly the red rooves with their attic windows.
Your pov, including the gentle curve, leads us gently around the shot; the man assists as we follow his lead.

Kind regards,
Bev :-)

dear Francis,
this ambience in cloudy day is very tasteful,
the flat light with almost no shadow shows us clear but a little surrealistic view of this old street.
a kind of nostalgic feeling and this atmosphere looks timeless...
thank you for your excellent shot,
Akihisa

Hi Francis,
Excellent POV for a very good close-up on this place .
The colorful roofs against the neutral tones of facades make an interesting contrast and give some life at this quiet street. Bravo! Annie
