Photographer's Note
Famous Plaza de España in Sevilla (Seville) was built for the 1929 Iberoamerican (Spanish American) Exhibition.
This square is a half circle with a big building around the edge and a moat and fountain in the middle. Nowadays, it is seat to various government offices like immigration, police, etc.
It was also used in the Star Wars Episode II movie.
What you can also see on the photo are many benches, each of them (each section) is decorated by painted tiles and is dedicated to a different province of Spain. People used to come here to study and read and then left the books on those covered shelves.
Photo taken with a tripod, speed 1 sec.

bonjour Ondrej,
très belle perspective architecturale ici. L'exposition est très bien, même si une profondeur de champ plus grande aurait donné un résultat encore mieux.
=> a WS for pleasure.

WOW Ondrej,
Such a nice night shot with a superb architecture! The exposure and sharpness is perfect. I would not expect Seville to be such a place (i was not expecting anything at all, expect the Barber of Seville). Now it is likely to be in my "to go" list. TFS and info.
Cheers,

Bonjour Ondrej,
J'aime la composition de ta photo . Le seul regret est que tu l'as prise en seconde et f/3.5 .
Comme tu aqs utilisé un trépied , tu aurais dù diaphragmé à f/14 , par exemple , ton appareil auris réglé la vitesse vers les 4 secondes .Tu aurais obtenu une meilleure netteté globale .
Bon début . Christian .

Nice composition and light work. The workshop gives it more detail and sharpness.

Hi Ondrej
Excellent night shot and taken from a good pov. The colouring is nice and warm and the detail is good. The dark sky works well here and has not caused any exposure problems. Good exposure control. Well done.

Hi Ondrej,
Great composition with a nice perpective and light to show us this beautiful square. Maybe a decreased aperture would give a better dof and details would be greater in the whole building. Anyway, it's a lovely picture.
