latin america - columbia - cartagena Cartagena Balconies (pls. view large)

Thx. for viewing.

Very nicely presented. I have the feeling that I've gone back in time and now find myself in the middle of some lovely 15th Century town.

Jim a very nice shot  nice colors and mood. best regards janegbert

Nice idea. Good spot for a photo. But.. my eyes just kind of keep roaming around looking for something to fix on.

Maybe a little more contrast in the flowers? I keep trying to go there... but the other areas keep pulling me away.

I think you have a very good opportunity here... but what is the subject really?

Thanks for posting.

interenting picture, nice colors and texture, probably the point of view parallel to most balconies.  As mentioned my eyes wonder around searching for a focus point.  I would work a little with cropping, leaving one side with balconies and cropping the other, works left and right.  Bernardo

A good photograph as it is. But seeing as you have brought up the question of composition, maybe a crop from the left. I leave the amount up to you, but my eye suggests enough to move the yellow building in the back so it's off centre.

But I see the cramped in busyness of the scene as it's charm and I love the colours. 

 

Unless I'm mistaken this was made with a long lens... Great image and great use of the long lens to compress the space.
