Photographer's Note
Big christmas tree on Keskustori (Central Square) of Tampere. Vanha Kirkko (the Old Church) in the background. In Finland christmas trees are practically always Norway Spruce (Picea abies).
Perspective corrected.

The colors have become perfect. especially the white/cream color of the church suits well with the snowy place. furthermore, the lights on the tree makes a warm atmosphere. Overall it is a fine night photo

Only one person in sight in the blue hour and she looks as is she is getting ready to take a photo too. You chose an excellent POV as the resultant composition works very well with the huge tree balanced by the church. Both elements are well exposed. Good work

Hi Kari,
Perfect graphical contrast between the Christmas tree and the elegant architecture of the church. The setting is organized well, and the presence of the woman gives a good reference and many life to this scene at the blue hour, which has a good aesthetic effect.
Best regards,
Josep

Hi Kari
A lovely capture in square frame that makes it even more attractive. Great sky color and the tree with the church tower looming on each side complete this holiday composition
best wishes

Terve Kari,
A nice Xmas scene though a bit late in the blue hour, the woman helps well the church to balance the scene. Considering the date I guess shooting time was about 2PM ;-)
Have a nice day, JY

Bonjour Kari,
la Finlande semble κtre un des berceaux des contes de Noλl et du Santa Claus.
D'ailleurs pourquoi des rennes devant le traineau.
Voilΰ une photo qui respire bien les fκtes de fin d'annιe.
Amicalement.
Daniel.

This is a fine composition, where you make well use of present light!
Wise to include the girl, and the combination with the church is wonderful...
