You've really honed your post processing skills and use of applications, Ed.

Very nice work.

The only thing that comes to mind, in terms of possible improvement ... and the following is stated without the obvious benefit of having been on scene ... perhaps, a slight shift of camera position?

To the left and then looking right.

Essentially to move or reduce the amount of the pillar on the right ... open the view some, to that of the area/street between ... and shifting the light lamp away from a central position.

Make no mistake about my words above though ... I do enjoy your image here. Lovely colourations and contrasts, good good detail and clarity.

And but of course, thank you for sharing your creative pursuits and photography with us. :o)

FDR at its finest EDV. Love the tones. It makes a great shot and composition. I see some merit in Les' suggestions.

Amazing... on the left side old but very well maintained building and on the right side old probably medieval ornament, that reminds about passing time. Thanks for this one! Must be added to my favs!

I'm not only amazed about the perfect tones but about a proper vertical perspective as well. Suppose you've slightly corrected the almost inevitable lens distortion, Ed.
Top Notch post again.

Ed - A wonderful contrast of old and older architecture in this photo. The detail, clarity and colors are outstanding. The lighting, one of your specialties, is great. Thad

Lovely! This house reminds me of the houses in the town where I was born. It's an old town, too. Maybe that's why there are similarities. I love the photo, Ed, thanks.

Very interesting photo Ed! I've studied some philosophy myself - Esoteric Philosophy. The picture shows Marie at the top or space as the mother and in time and space, caos following. Don't know if that's accurate but that's what I see. Spirit being the father and the progeny is the Son or the Sun/Consciousness. Great photo Ed! Thanks Allen
