Hello Murray,

A nice close up of the clock on the tower of San Paulo Basilica.
I like the Roman characters, splendid contrast through the black letters on a clear background.
Good composition and lovely presentation. TFS.

Best regards,
John.

Hi Murray,

The brick or marble wall is framing well the clock. The point of view is allowing us to distinguish the details and colors of the clock. It is clear and precise. The light has a good effect on the colors. Have a nice day.
