That is a nice shot. I like it. Says so much and great view.

Pretty shot, there are some halo's areound the buildings by the water, and some white bits (likely birds) up on the top right over the water that I would l fix. I would level it off some too it seems tilted to the left and some lens distortion is obvious as well which can be fixed easily. I would also crop a little tighter - might be fixed if you level it off the small bit of the building camera right is distracting.

Is this Spain? Looks like a bull fighting ring and a gorgeous setting for a city!

Thank you I'll look into that tomoroow as right now it's pretty late here - don't get the halo's though - there's been VERY little PP on this shot but will look in detail manana

Thank you! Yes, it's the Malaga bullring, Andalucia, Spain - home of Antonio Banderas

Very nice.
I don't really see halos, just varied water color in high contrast with the buildings.
Really do like that shot.

I don't see any halos. Nice shot with an interesting contrast between the modern highrise buildings and the classic bullring. Looks like a great vantage point to get a shot when there is a crowd in the ring!

My 7 year old daughter just leaned over to look at your photo, and between handfuls of popcorn said; "Cool!".

Nice symmetry on this shot. The round ring against all of the angled buildings does contrast well. Is this a site that you can revisit again in the future?

Regards,
Mark

EDIT: And, if I had paid attention to your post title, I would already know the answer to my question. This site has enormous potential. I hope you get a chance to work it more in the future. Would you be fortunate enough to have a rising or setting sun behind this site?
