I really love how you put the photo in black and white and the houses look so old fashioned and the view is magnificent! Nice JOb.

I love this picture. The only ting I *might* change is the portion above the last ine of roofs. It's so much lighter than the foreground that it almost looks like two pictures. This is my opinion, and it's worth exactly what you're paying for it.

Awesome shot! I love everything about it! If I could chang one thing I'd crop out a bit more of the sky. A little too much white up there. Other than that, awesome. Amazing contrast and everything leads right to the subject.

I really like this picture, it's interesting and the perspective is good. (Lighting and focus is good too) I think you did a good job.

Don't even really need the cathedral in the background. I love the foreground roofs by themselves. (IMHO!)

The castle is not big and bold enough to be the centre of interest of the photograph. It is, however, and interesting study of the roof-tops.
