Hello Bartlomiej,
A fine view of this vintage ex-Lisbon tramcar - I think that this is it sitting at its terminus in Soller, just uphill from the main town square, isn't it? There's a nice little cafι there where you can have something to eat and drink before you travel to the Port.
You have caught this little tram and its surroundings in lovely light which has brought out the colours of the tram very well. Your composition is excellent, your exposure perfect and the details and sharpness exquisite.
Lovely!
Kind Regards,
John.
P.S. I've been on this tram but I've never been on the railway from Palma to Soller - I'm looking forward to seeing some pictures of that!
P.P.S. Here's a picture which I took of one of the older trams as it was passing through Soller's town square!

Hi B,
Well framed and presented in a good vertical format, light is well managed and the contrast of colors very nice.

Hello Bartlomiej,
A fine composition, with the vividly eye-catching tram, strongly positioned and the tracks leading nicely to the bottom r/h corner, to create a fine lead line. Curiously, the electric wires almost mimic the tram tracks!
The shot is sharp and engaging.
I am surprised at the proximity of the chairs to the tram. I'm sure Health and Safety rules would prevent this in the U.K.!! But, it looks great fun!
My warm regards,
Bev :-)

Hello Bartlomiej,
This is really a very old tram, always better for the nature than the a lot cars in the cities.
A pity not people on the terrace for drinking a cup of coffee and enjoy of the old tramcar.
Composition and presentation be superb .
Very well done, TFS.
Have a terrific Pentecostal weekend
John.

Hi Bartlomiej
this is amazing! to see the tram SO close to the buildings and SO close to the tables and chairs is something I've never seen before.
I bet when you're sitting down you could hear and feel the rumble!
cool scene.
cheers
