It's a beautiful Cathedral and you have captured it nicely. you just need a 'tourist filter' for your camera to make this pic better. :-)

I love this photo! I was in Trier in 96 and it looked just the same. Thanks for posting this and the others from your visit there.

I thoroughly enjoyed my trip! LOL My favourite photos were the ones that showed the streets and coliurful buildings. Looks like there were lots of tourists there.

Nice detail and colors.

Classic reflection

Comment by Yo_Spiff:
I love this one, Deb! I might have framed the hubcap a little differently, but that's a personal pref. Since the car is in shadows, the reflection of the building that is in the sun really stands out. The shot as a whole is really smooth.

Certainly a very unique POV. Very nice looking car as well.

Kurhaus 2

Comment by ErikV:
This is my favorite of the kurhaus ones as well. The nice lines of the edge of the fountain (and the row of trees as well) lead one into the photo and straight to the great building.

Comment by Ann:
More than competent, especially since it was basic editing. I really like the off angle, it adds a lot of interest. I agree with whoever commented that the sky needs to be darker. A way to get this in basic is to darken the blues before doing the b&w conversion.

If it were me (take this with a grain of salt, my landscape abilities are caca), I would try two different things. First, I'd get down lower, closer to the water, then shoot up more to get more sky. I think that might be a more interesting angle. Second, I might try a long exposure, to make the water more silky smooth. That would require a ND filter or less light, maybe twilight. Or shoot very early in the morning when there's less wind to disturb the water.
