Lovely the shadow really makes it.

Time for a new camera

Lovely shot

we can't tell without a High Res

Wonderful, great set up and focus

Nice, why is it silly?

very nice

What a beautiful bird

What an interesting bird

Love the attitude

Lovely

I feel this photo could be much better, increase contrast and darken, and then tick also save High Res so we can get a good look.

It's probably a great photo, but please tick save High Res so we can tell.

Nice photo, would be better if cropped a bit closer.

Hard to make out without a High Res.

I think a plain background would have been better.

Nice

Beautiful, great detail, I love the rock that seems to be supporting the tree.

lovely

Yes indeed, wonder if I have any old photos from when there was still 1 tree there.

That is such a beautiful castle, wish I had a digital camera when I was there.

looks better in High Res

Nice HDR

I use Save for Web in Photoshop to resize images before posting them here. As long as I have Metadata - All, I still have all the Metadata on the smaller image. It just doesn't get uploaded here, would destroy anonymity otherwise.

Author, did you Photoshop this image?

This is really beautiful, love the soft background

The site strips the IPTC and Exit Data

Nice composition and light.

definitely better.

Nice one.

Thanks

Buda Castle (Hungarian: Budavári Palota, German: Burgpalast, Turkish: Budin Kalesi) is the historical castle and palace complex of the Hungarian kings in Budapest, first completed in 1265. In the past, it was also called Royal Palace (Hungarian: Királyi-palota) and Royal Castle (Hungarian: Királyi Vár, German: Königliche Burg).

The Quirinal Palace (known in Italian as the Palazzo del Quirinale or simply Quirinale) is a historic building in Rome, Italy, the current official residence of the President of the Italian Republic. It is located on the Quirinal Hill, the tallest of the seven hills of Rome. It housed thirty popes, four kings and eleven presidents of the Italian Republic.

If possible post an image in a SBS to show what the pattern is from.

Nice abstract,
If possilbe post an image in a SBS to show what the pattern is from.

A beautiful photograph, but I agree with Cache Slinger.

It would be really nice if we could see a High res.

Great shot and story.

You are lucky
