Hi Ike,
this is such a beautiful garden, no surprise you want to return there. The tower is quite unique in style I would say, plus of course it is surrounded tightly by exotic vegetation.
very picturesque view.
Lovely presentation,
M

Hello Ike,
I like how the rich red tones of the pencil like tower seemingly rise from amongst the contrasting greenery. Excellent composition, very well exposed with superb colours and clarity.

Hello Ike,
This is a very nice view of the church tower among the palms. The colours and contrasts are remarkably good and there is a very pretty cloud near the upper left corner. The piedestal with red flowers adds a fine splash of colours in the foreground.
Kind regards.
Gert

Hi Ike,

The trees are framing well the tower. The point of view is showing the details of the bell tower. The good luminosity is making the colors to stand out. Have a nice day.

Ciao Ike
quanto verde e quanti alberi, si tratta proprio di un bel giardino, da dove sbuca fuori la bella e snella torre.
Ottima composizione, con il vaso di fiori a dare un tocco di colore.
Saluti
Carlo

Hello Ike,
A really nice photo of this church, the colours are vivid and attractive, thanks to the sunlight. The garden full of palm trees, small bushes and some flowers is a very appealing foreground. The composition is good too.

Hello Ike,
great the view of the clock tower with the lot of the colourful flowers bushes and high trees to create a very attractive and unique frame.
The brilliant light of the day enhance even more the beauty and the clarity of the scene.

Regards,Danos

ourania (51103) 2016-08-03 3:23

Hello Ike,
I like how you framed this closer view of the bell tower, the blue sky is a great contrasting backdrop and the vegetaion makes more impact with its abundance and details. The light and the colours are vibrant and attractive, the shadows add contrast and balance to the composition. Congratulations and thank you!
All the best, have a great afternoon,
Ourania

Hello, Ike!

Beautiful view of this church tower standing out in the middle of the trees that surround it giving more life and colors to the image! Wonderful composition!

Silvio1953 (220759) 2016-08-04 6:22

Ciao Ike, lovely composition with fantastic Church tower, superb sky, wonderful colors, excellent clarity and splendid light, very well done, my friend, ciao Silvio

Royaldevon (85678) 2016-08-04 10:30

Hello Ike,

This is just about as different as it is possible to get from the cell phone photographs of the bus station graffiti! This area is full of natural light, and though there is shape and structure, the features are classical or natural. There is nothing surreal or frightening but plenty that is eye-catching and attractive.
I like how your viewpoint has linked the two vertical structures, the pillar and the tower, creating a natural upwards movement and ensuring lots of attention on the tall bell tower.

My warm regards,
Bev :-)

ChrisJ (171366) 2016-08-04 14:14

Hello Ike,

The warm salmon pink colors of the bell tower spire contrast well against the blue sky to give a fantastic warm cold color contrast. Tfs!

Hi Ike
its great to see some of the local tree and plant life from your region, that alone is educational right?

glad there's a cloud in the sky, just to break up all the blues a bit, and the colors mix well. really like that rusted red color throughout.
cheers
Craig

Hello Ike,

In this well-composed ecclesiastical scene, the 19th-century church of Saint-Peter Russian Orthodox Church looks very different from the onion-shaped churches seen in Russia. I think I've seen this place among the sites I've visited in Israel.

Warm regards,

Bulent
