So much blue, it looks like dye.
I would have preferred the natural landscape of coastal Greece.

[Thefunkyman] I know ... but you can't resist it ... well I couldn't
[stasis88] ... thanks for doing so :)))
[prolix6x] I know, that's what Santorini is like. Well, erm ... that's not what this photo is. Sorry ... that's a weird comment.

It's a beautiful image. I love the interplay between blue and white. I think the vignette is too strong for my taste and the tilted horizon bothers a bit. A good image that deserves the accolades it's gotten.

Rating #2:

Rated 17 out of 20 in the 100 Points group.

Great saturated blue shot. The tilt is slightly off putting, as is the vignetting at the corners of the picture (polarising filter or fish eye lens attachment ?) but I'd have tried to a) move the flower pot from the terrace downstairs and given it more of a surreal feel and b) to remove the bright blue triangle at the bottom of the picture
Posted 29 months ago. ( permalink )

chargall says:

Very good colors. I'm not so sure about the light blue from the lower part. And the two pillars are strangely a little gray. Maybe you could have erased it. The vignetting in the 4 corners is a little bothering too.

The stretch of land at the horizon is stupendous. And you've been right not to correct the strange perspective, giving an interesting geometric character to the image

Smokin! I really love the finish of that lacquer finish on the fence. The glossiness next to the stucco is great.
Posted 29 months ago. ( permalink )

dr ama says:

The framing using the gate & the walls is nice
The use of predominantly two colors, with the details in the white well maintained & the interesting hues of blues, makes for interesting viewing

The passage way has some distracting elements like the blurry flower pot & the wall fixtures on the left side

The cut off blue step in the foreground is also rather distracting

The blues do look a bit over saturated over the sea

Rating #5:

Rated 14 out of 20 in the 100 Points group.
Posted 29 months ago. ( permalink )

secondaryreality says:

I usually am not a fan of vignetting, but here I think it works wonderfully. Gives the appearance of looking out of a portal into a dreamworld or something. The blues on the gate and the whites are very sharp and fresh looking, though it would be nice if the white highlights were not so overblown on the top of the building. The bottom of the blue gate is partially visible, I'd rather it wasn't. Like the placement of the flowerpot. The horizon also keeps looking crooked to me when its viewed small, but when I view it large it looks okay.

thanks for the marks - I must admit - the vignetting was by accident :(
