Lovely colours and good DOF in this image. I particularly like the detail in the foreground rooftops. Great shot.

Hello Patrick,
This is a very appealing composition with clear colours and good sharpness. The roofs have very attractive colours and shapes, and I like the connection between the blue building in the foreground and the blueish mountainside in the background.
Best regards,
Gert
