You get extra points for cropping to a real landscape format.

Would've rated it higher if it was a little broader an image, or even taller. 6

Comment by Lustre:
Nice panaroma. The border also works well with the white buildings. Colours are nice and simple and it shows the urban sprawl well.

Rose Tint My World

Composition (Content)
Nice use of subject and tree. They make for a complementary layout. It makes me wonder what the gentleman is looking at.

Background
The hills in the background add a nice touch to the scene. They disappear off into the horizon leaving no hard horizon.

Camera Work (Technical)
Your focus is a little soft. Not sure if this is due to the rose tint, or on purpose. Contrast and lighting seem ok.

Digital Processing (Technical)
Sharpening is fair(May need to use unmask sharpen)
Balance between light and dark is good. (Good tone throughout)
Compression is good(No noticeable compression artifacts)

My opinion
I'm not familiar with the song, but the composition of the shot is good. I feel that your focus and over tint of the red is a bit distracting. Could this have worked with just a hint of rose? All in all a nice shot.

Interesting. Its kind of hazy. Too bad about that. Hard to get good shooting weather this time of year. - Inspzil

I would really like to see more of this scene. For me, the tight vertical crop hurts this image since the sharpness just isn't there. But, wow... what a pretty town! (6)

I get it, but I'm not fully buying into it. Heavy manipulation has it's penalties in picture quality, this is no exception. Seems fuzzy due to the coloration (look at his knees). I don't know the song in question, but I'll take your word for it. (I'm not all knowing, really!) 6 Swash
