Beautiful view Knut!
the calle is very weel captured, so small, with that gigantic cathedral facade at the end that closed the perspective.
nice colors and light too.

Wonderful shot! I went to Tarragona recently, and I didn`t know how to get a good shot of the cathedral; I think it is a difficult subject, because of its narrow surroundings. Also, very crisp and clear. You did an excellent job!

Jorge

Hi Knut,
very impressive view. The houses in foreground accentuates dimensions of the cathedral. Very good light, colours and sharpness. Well done! I like the details linked from the description too.

Thanks,
Marek
