Hello Serban,a thumbnail well worth opening up;the size of the glacier is astounding.The people give impact just by being there, adding a great sense of the scale of this natural phenomena.
Excellent DoF.
Tfs, regards Jean.

Hello Horia,I like your PoV and the composition with the island placed just right in the frame.
I wonder if you might adjust the contrast a little to help bring out the colours of the trees and buildings on the island?
I assume that the sea never breaches the wall/road?
Interesting notes.
Tfs, regards Jean.

Hello Yves, a strong contrast between the vertical stripes and the rectangular windows, well seen.
Plus the bonus of the Moretti chimneys' colours being reflected in the windows.
Where are the shadows coming from?
Tfs, regards Jean.

Hello Giorgos,an interesting view of the hill with the sparkling white church on top.The dark looking stormy sky is a good backdrop.
The cluttered streets full of buildings contrasts well with the pyramid of rock.
Interesting notes.
Tfs, regards Jean.

Hello Lisa, a good PoV with the spires outlined against the beautiful blue sky.The paving stones in the fg invite our eyes towards the cathedral.
Good placing of the building within the composition.
Interesting notes.
Tfs, regards Jean.

Hello Larry, we do not have barns like this in the U.K. so it is good to see the variety of barns that make such good subjects on T.E.
I like the space that you have decided to make a feature of your composition;it suggests the wide open spaces of your state.
The lonely little tree on the right keeps our eyes in shot and is useful being right at the edge of the frame.
I look forward to seeing more in the series.
Tfs, regards Jean.

Hello Rooster,a beautiful shot of the Pyramid reflected so well in the pool.
I like your composition with the Louvre so clearly defined and adding its beautiful colour to the scene.
You chose a good time of day for your shot with the 'blue' light.
Tfs, regards Jean.
