Photographer's Note
View on the "Corniche", Luxembourg-city, Luxembourg.
Part of "skyline" of the old quater of Luxembourg-city, shot from a viewpoint at Bd. Gén. Patton. The picture was taken in the early morning, where you have the best light conditions.
This row of buildings is placed at the so-called "corniche", one of the nicest (and most touristic) roads in the old town. It leads where in older days was situated the city-wall above the Alzette valley. Since the forteress has been dismanteled, those walls have disappeared, thus giving free a wonderfull view over the valley. The corniche is therefore sometimes refered to as one of Europe's prettiest balconies.
A small "insider tipp": in the center of the picture you see a tree. Just underneath that tree is situated a very nice small terrasse, which s part of the Restaurant "Breedewee" and offers nice meals to complete the wonderfull view.
Framing and some minor changes with the new Photoshop CS3 beta.

Hi Mike, I really like the atmosphere here. Nicely composed, even lighting, just perfect... And the smoke coming out of the chimneys adds some dynamism. Happy new year! Hakan

Bonjour Mike,
le Luxembourg semble disposer de maisons aux architectures remarquables... J'aime beaucoup ce style.
Existe-t-il des lois pour protéger les quartiers historiques d'architectures modernes?
Jolie composition avec cette église très bien placée.
Bonne fin d'année

Bonjour Mike,
Une superbe photo! Très beaux bâtiments et très belles couleurs également... J'aime le détail de la fumée qu'on voit juste devant le clocher! ;-)
Bravo!
Isabelle
