Photographer's Note
In the streets of São Filipe, the main city of the volcanic island of Fogo.
The church with blue walls and with these two campaniles, built in the late nineteenth.
I opted for this view less classic than a presentation of the only facade.
On the left you can see an old house dating from the Portuguese colonial period, an example of "sobrados" with floor and balcony.

Bonjour, cher Jean,
J'aime beaucoup cette présentation qui offre une vue sur la ville et sur l'édifice religieux (deux en une).
L'ensemble se regarde avec intérêt.
Amitiés.

Hi Jean
A keen find, seeing portion of the whole church is a delight! You have given the best attention to detail, framing, sharp in focus with stunning colour and good clarity. There an additional features for the eye to roam thru' with enough depth and sense of locality. You're really making the most of your situation and the execution is seamless! Congrats

Hello Jean,
An attractive view from what I suppose is one of the less often visited islands. I like the shapes and colours of the nearest church and the contrasts to the buildings across the street. It's a well composed photo with very attractive light and colours.
Regards,
Gert

Hello Jean,
I like the composition with its two distinct halves. Also, the well managed light and shadow contrasts. Nicely exposed with very good colour contrasts and excellent clarity.

Hello Jean,
A great view of this town with its very appealing architecture in the most eye-catching colours. The light blue of the church is wonderful and goes so well with the orange roofs. The warm, soft sidelight is superb too. A good and well-balanced composition.

Bonsoir Jean,
L'église envoie mon regard au loin ce qui crée de la profondeur. La prise de vue permet de voir les détails de l'église et des immeubles. La bonne luminosité rehausse les couleurs de l'image. Bonne journée.

Hello Jean,
Amazing warm cold color contrasts between the blue and red, with excellent saturation and sharpness. I like the elevated pov and the linear perspective provided by the street at left. Tfs!

Hello Jean,
For just the reason you noted, this is a most interesting shot.
We nan see the consequential parts of the building, projecting in sequence, almost like zigzags and terminating in the bell tower, strongly placed in the frame.
The blue and the orange are very strong colours together, making this a very striking focal point.
Just a glimpse of the b/g helps us to understand the elevation as well as creating a sense of depth.
My warm regards,
Bev :-)

Hello Jean,
An unusual color for a church building, I like it. Blue, off-white and red of the tiles go well together.
Regards,
