Photographer's Note

I've found this side street view during my walk around Placa Major in Palma de Mallorca. The place looked so charming. I hope you like this summer afternoon mood:)

Hello Gosia
a lovely warm light and minimalist feel about this shot. It has all the appeal of summer days inside it and is beautifully composed, executed and presented. A shot to mull over on a cold mid-winter's day.

Have a great weekend - B.

Hello Gosia,
A delightful scene where even the scooter adds a touch of charm. Perfectly exposed with superb saturated colours. The purple flowers of the overhanging trees sit beautifully against the ochre toned walls. I like the point of view and the use of the two lamps to draw the viewer into the scene.

Hello Gosia,
I really like the atmosphere in your photo. Excellent composition and POV. I particularly like the contrast of the blueish grey of the street with the warm yellow of the houses. Well seen!

Ciao Gosia,

J'aime vraiment beaucoup cette composition. Elle pourrait facilement faire une publicité pour les scooters. La lumière est magnifique, comme si elle était faite en studio.

Hello Gosia,
The vertical composition is perfect for the narrow street. Great color and DOF as well. This scene feels very warm.. I imagine a scooter ride to visit a friend on a lovely afternoon. Have a great weekend!

Hello Gosia,

It is a photographer's dream!
The light is warm and radiant, the steps make an effective lead to a strong vanishing point, there are interesting features on the wall and, in the f/f, we have the epitome of easy travel, the Vespa! You have composed this shot well and collected the details sharply.

Have a great day,
Bev :-)

Hello Gosia,
You always seem to show very beautiful light and colours in your street scenes. Despite the narrow alley the yellow wall is so well lit. The shiny motor scooter is well paced and the pink flowers add a real 'punch' of colour.
Super image.
Kind Regards, Ann

Hi Gosia.
A superb composition with this stepped alley, he disappeared in the curve gives a good DOF to the image, streetlights and Bouganvilla flowers are a nice complement, the bike is also a nice touch.
A splendid color that enhances the image.
Very good brightness and sharpness.
Well seen and done better.
Have a happy weekend.
Best wishes.
Luis.

Hi Gosia,

Indeed very charming. And you knew well how to turn it into an equally charming photo, making a good compo and managing very well the light and perspective, something usually quite difficult to achieve in this situation.

TFS,regards, José.

Hello Gosia,
the architectural environment and the colours surrounding the scooter look ideal. An elegant and atmospheric photo, a quiet and suggestive daily life scene. I like very much the upward perspective and what it has allowed you to include in the vertical frame. The light is diffused in a very charming way and the colours create a very agreeable warmth. The lone scooter and the details around it give us fine hints about daily life in this place. Congratulations and thank you!
All the best, have a good night,
Ourania

Ciao Gosia
fantastico il riflesso sul parafango della Vespa, riprende perfettamente un dettaglio della facciata.
Bel vicolo, caratterizzato dal colore della facciate, dalla scala antica, dai fiori in contrasto cromatico e, appunto, dallo scooter, che sembra proprio un elemento extra.
Saluti
Carlo

Hi Gosia,

Indeed, I like it! There's just something incredibly quaint about a simple street scene like this, and it was certainly a wise choice to walk the unbeaten path to find such opportunities. The rich rustic colors of the wall, accented by the vibrant bougainvillea and soft sunlight is almost dreamy. :) Simple and enticing, you can't go wrong here. Hope you have a nice weekend. Take good care.

Friendly wishes,

Jason

Hi Gosia
What a quaint alley and transformation, I like it a lot, the play of warm light, tones and texture which convey lots of its own charm, unique character and wonderful insight of this place. I like the idea of adding the two wheeler just in the right place while looking deep into the picture letting those stairs guide me through. Glad you caught what is around you so well and share with us. Wonderful snatch and tfs, Congrats
Warm regards

Hi Gosia
i do enjoy this summer afternoon mood :)
these scenes can be found all over Italy as well.
in fact, if you didn't say say, I would have thought this was Italy not Spain.

really enjoy the blueish tones, especially on the bike.
the yellow colors are sweet too.

what's not to like about this one, its tranquil and elegant :)
have a great day
