Bellagio, a photo from Como, Lombardia

Photographer's Note

Bellagio is situated upon the cape of the land mass that divides Lake Como in two. The city centre occupies the tip of the promontory, while other districts are scattered along the lake shores and up the slopes of the hills (from Wikipedia).

Hello Robert,
This is a very well handled composition where everything is in the right place. There are fine flowers in the foreground, a sidewalk and a row of plants cutting into the view with a well placed person, and in the background a beautiful view of the town at the foot of a mountain. The clouds are nicely shaped and the light is perfectly managed with a good balance of shadows and highlights. In every way it's a pleasant photo.
Regards,
Gert

Hello Robert,
A good walking path along the lake on where you can probably take a lot of nice pictures.
The light on the buildings is very beautiful and makes the town stand out well against the grey mountains on the background.
On the foreground the flowers add a colourful element while the branches growing over the path create a pretty half tunnel effect.
Best regards, Paul

Hello Robert

You've made superb use of the walkway, the flowers and the trees to sweep us into the view of the waterfront city beyond. Even the woman searching her handbag plays her role in the scene. Really like this one here!

Congratulations.

Benny

Cześc Robert,
Bellagio jest przepiekne i tu pokazujesz je w oryginalny spos鏏. . Podoba mi się ta kompozycja z kwiatami na pierwszym planie. Super kolory, nienaganna ostrość. Bajeczny widok, zwłaszcza gdy pogoda dopisze. Chciałoby sie przejść ta alejką :).

Pozdrawiam Małgorzata

Witaj Robert,

You choose a very nice angle with flowers and a lovely walking path.
Also a lovely background with the city and mountains, also nice cloudy sky.
Composition and presentation are very nice to look at.
Very well done, TFS.

Have a nice day,
John.

Hello Robert.
A superb photo. The viewpoint has been well chosen to give us a satisfying composition. Flowers in the left foreground, a figure in the middle distance, and the lovely well lit architecture of the waterfront curving away to the left. Plus those mountains and a well detailed sky. Exquisitely done. I'm glad you timed this to keep the lady in the scene, her looking in her bag adds a 'story' element - very important! For me, anyway.
Regards,
Andrew

Hello Robert,
A magnificent view along the lake promenade in one of the most beautiful places in Italia I ever seen.
I find the pic. space allocation very attractive, contrast between the green trees and shining houses to the blue/grey tone over the water and mountains.
Good afternoon,
Ike
