ciao paolo,
always good time of the day to photograph, particularly if the buildings are white or in general - light;
a bit uncertain composition - looks like you could not decide if to expose more sky or more of the pavement in front of the church;
other than that - very nice work,
have a good week,
j.

Hi Paolo.

Blue hour is a beautiful time of day to take a photo.
I wish if you had more floor to the shot and less sky, but it is really hard to decide. Was this handheld? Because if it is, the clarity is very good. I like you included those houses on the left side.

Hello Paolo
Great blue sky over the church. Good composition with nice colours and lights.
Have a nice day.

Ciao Paolo,
Is Italia's fate of tomorrow so bad that you feel the need to go praying ???
Nice blue hour view, was it on tripod or hand held ? agree you could have gone for some more pavement and less sky, the basilica is well sharp, the houses on edges are much softer.
Buona giornata & forza Italia !

CIao Paolo
classical framing in the blue hour...
I'm surprised that your Powershot doesn't give a better result in night shot, but your compo is great..
bye

Hi Paolo, excelent shot with fantastic colouires around. Good POV but maybe too much empty space around the churche. Shame for thet renovation part on the buttom.

Bonjour mon ami Paolo,
La grande aire rectangulaire de la place Santa Croce, devant la Basilique franciscaine, nous laisse encore voir aujourd'hui l'origine mιdiιvale de beaucoup de bβtiments qui se dressent sur son pιrimθtre.
La basilique impose le respect par sa beautι (je remarque des ιchafaudages pour redonner toute la splendeur du passι).
Je suis un inconditionnel de ce genre de photo.
Amitiιs.
Philippe

Ciao Paolo,
You got a very nice image of this well known church, from which I love the drawing of this front faηade. I like your choice of less ground and more of that marvellous "blue hour" sky. The POV from a distance is good and the central composition is perfect. The result is a very beautiful painting!
Excellent note.
Thanks a lot,
Ricado

Hi Paolo,
A superb winter shot, resonating with the crisp sharp hues and tones of the season with great clarity. You certainly made the most of the blue hour. The exposure level seems just right. I have read the remarks about the amount of sky versus foreground, but I like the large amount of sky here, as it has great texture and the foreground in any event is more shaded. Well done.
John

Hi Paolo,
Impressive light, the better moment to give an original and very lovely effect for this architecture, well done.

that's the longest note i've ever seen! :) hehe!

really great shot and i like the blues that you've caught in the almost night moment after sunset.

i disagree with pasternak about the sky. i think your framing is perfect. the street in the foreground is boring. you were right to crop it out and use more of the nice texture in the cloudy sky.

i love these evening shots where there's lots of ambient light, but the street and house lights are on. it creates a nice effect.

Hola Paolo.
This is an excellent shot taken at blue hour, very good composition with the beautiful church and colours contrast.
Well done, TFS.
