Nice!!! I love the tones and atmosphere!!

Virginia Maguire
Great atmospheric shot. Sepia tone very appropriate. Lines, doorways, windows give depth and the small details draw the viewer closer – clothes, cobblestones, dogs.
Scott d'Almeida replied
thank you always

Ted Byrne
How powerfully a color wash affects the mood of an image. I’m guessing that had you allowed the palette to shift to the warm full color tones of a late afternoon you’re impressions would have been lost upon us. The framing, of course contributes to the story arc. Well done.
