Hi Malgorzata,
WOW! This photo has a spectacular chromatic output, because of the vivid colors that decorate this magnificent architecture of the church and some houses.
This colorful creates a strong contrast to the storm clouds that obscure the scene and give a lot of drama to the composition.
It is a beautiful picture, I like.
Best regards,
Josep

Il cielo scuro di fondo è perfetto per far risaltare la scena.

Czesc Malgorzata,
kontrast tak fajny ze az malo realistyczny.
Troszeczke moze nawet ta kopula zbyt jaskrawa.
Bardzo mi sie jednak podoba, w szczegolnosci mocno nasycone barwy. To niebo takie dramatyczne i grozne z dobrze naswietlonym pierwszym planem to najlepsze czego moze sobie zazyczyc fotograf.

The variable light source enable you to contrast well, just as the storm approach on BG, Malgo.
Colors a bit too enhanced, to my view.

Hi Malgorzata,
You have indeed managed to capture contrasts in this view. The very special church with such strong and bright colours contrast to the very dark and sinister sky, but also to the grey building beside. You must have been lucky to catch this view from a bus passing by, you couldn´t have many seconds to plan this beautiful photo. Congratulations!
Kind regards

You managed taking a really interesting and colorful picture when the weather was getting to be so gloomy. Excellent composition, with the sunlit churches in the foreground and the such a dramatic sky in the background, and highly skillful capture! It is pity that the exact location of this interesting place is unknown. Anyway, great job!

Greetings Malgo,
Reading the British press, the news from Poland this morning looks good. Speaking from a Southern African perspective - we should not be having to still protest for our press freedoms, but it is nice to know that mass pressure will still have results.
OK - off the politics. I like this photograph, with a hugely dramatic, dark, stormy background. Once again you have pushed the saturation just far enough to bring out the colours in the foreground. A great contrast with the sky.
regards and thanks, Iain.

Good morning Malgo,
This is a dramatic sky too ! And you took a superb shot of it !
I love the way the sky is dark and threatening, but there is just that flash of light in the white cloud, which illuminates the colourful church underneath : It makes it look as if God was striking its light on its dwelling :-)
TFS and have a good weekend !
