Hi Paul, great photo. I like the composition with the green of the trees mix with all the red of the roofs. Nice POV.
Good job.

Prachtig Paul, hoe je de daken hebt gebruikt als doorkijkje. Bovendien is er het mooie contract tussen het dakpanrood en het subtiele blauw van de geschilderde muren.
Knap werk!

Dag Paul,

Een zeer mooie standput in duik op deze patio, grat POV die het mogelijk maak om de daken en het binnenste van de patio te zien. Mooie kleuren van de dakpannen van het Zuiden.

Goede dag,
Roger

I don't think I have seen a shot from this POV before and it works very well. It's almost as if the rooftops were a giant frame for the middle and the tree. I love the detail of the people we see having a rest and a chat. Worth the climb to the top. Well done

Hi Paul!
This reminds me to a guesthouse in Cusco/peru,where I stayed a few days.Exactly the same architecture and exactly the same view from my room.
Good composition with the view down at these roofs and arcades.It`s a good exposure with great sharpness and fine details at this collonial architecture.
Kind regards,Leo

Hello Paul,

I love this bird's eye view shot of the small quadrangle in the Alhambra. I visited the site once, thirty years ago, but had no idea that the towers were accessible. The terra cotta tiles of the roofs, in variegated shades of red and pink, a doll-house effect are really quite complelling.

Warm regards,

Bulent

Hi Paul!
Very good shot!! I like the POV, the colors and the building details as well. That is very nice the arches of the building and the colorful tiled roof.
Thanks, Csilla

Hi Paul, your POV makes this one interesting, partly beacsuse of the good framing by the terracotta roofs. One gets a good idea of the beauty of the architecture, as well as a voyeuristic feel, looking down onto this intimate group. Good work!
Regards,
Ryno

Hi Paul, I've also visited this amazing place which I in my oıpinion one of the wonders of the world. Your photo is an unusual one taken from a different point of view. The inclusion of the cypress tree adds richness to your composition. Regards, Tolga

Hello Paul, the framing on the roofs and the arcade of the patio does of your photo an image with a sensation of intimacy and silence, I like the color and the light surely of a cloudy day. Good work.

Felicidades.

Un saludo.

Good morning Paul,
The red roof-tiles framing beautifully the inner court and balconies. A POV superbly found, and well taken this advantage offered by the place. Light and contrast with fine depth downwards.
Wish you a nice weekend,
Ike

Hi Paul,
Very nice title which adds some humour to this lovely composition. The courtyard was well captured here and it diagonally fills the frame.
Maybe I should revisit Andalusia as well?
