To me, this looks like it should be a lot sharper.

Pity about the low contrast and what seem to be oversharpening or out of focus

Great idea, wonderful setting and is done in the style of Adams... but the overall technical quality of this image is poor.

The gondola is distracting in this otherwise beautiful photo.
