Hello Sergio,

It looks like a miniature village or a stage set, rather than a real town. The brilliant light and colors are very impressive. Warm regards,a

Hola Sergio,
Wow ! The people who live in that street certainly love colours. It's great that they spend such a lot of care to decorate their homes. How often do they paint their facades, windows and doors? Even flowers are everywhere.
Excellent capture with the funny fountain on the foreground.
Best regards, Paul

Hello Sergio,

Colourful indeed, not often to see a street shining like this one!
Almost like a fairytale setup, a feeling that is enhanced by the figures by the well...
A well framed street scene, sharp fine details and a strong sense of depth!

Greetings,

Hi Sergio
hmm...a photographers paradise!
it seems like there are alot of these colorful cities in alot of the South American countries.
You certainly wouldn't see this here in Canada :)
too bad there aren't any children playing around to make it even more charming.
but i still love the cultural aspect - exactly what TE is all about.
enjoy your day

Ol� Sergio!
Acho que nunca tinha visto fotos destas ruas. As casitas s縊 uma maravilha, tanto pela arquitectura e decora鈬o, como pela combina鈬o de cores. Um bom pov, com esta fonte em primeiro plano.

nikkitta (17070) 2011-12-22 14:26

Hola Sergio

Pero que interesante y atractivo colorido tienen las casas en Colombia
Me gusta el POV que elegiste con la fuente en el primer plano y las macetas de geranios que dan idea de profundidad

Te felicito

Maria

shevchenko (20560) 2011-12-22 18:57

Hi Sergio,
Nice to see every house have a colourful facade and finally create a colourful street, good frame to show a big fountain in the middle too, what an artistic old town, interesting composition, thanks for sharing.

Hi Sergio

Great composition of this beautiful and colourful street. These people obviously enjoy their community. Excellent POV and great result.

nobuikehonda (3848) 2011-12-23 11:33

Hello Sergio,

This must be one of the most colourful images on TE at the moment. I like how you chose to show this image from an off-centred position. The stunning colour is the most striking part of the entire image. Finding this image among the geometric photographs is a very pleasant break in the sequence of the photographic presentations. TFS

With my very best regards,
Have very Merry Christmas, Sergio
Nobu.

Hi Sergio!

Lucky you, there were no people roaming around!?!? Love the clear capture on the streets, looks like a desserted place, but I doubt it, Just the colorful houses make it even more alive! very nice place! reminds me of Caminito in La Boca Argentina. Great capture on this beautiful street!

Best regards,
matt

Hola Sergio,
No me podia imaginar un pueblo tan colorido ! Esta calle es muy espectacular, con muchos motivos en las fachadas.La fuente tambi駭 es muy original. Quizas un poco demasiado saturado.
Saludos,
