It took me a bit to figure out what I like about this shot, and it's not just the sky or the people. There's a sense of motion with the people, and that's echoed by the clouds in the sky. This also reminds me that it's sometimes OK to push the contrast and not worry if something gets blown out or lost in the shadows.
Wow, I love this photograph! It reminds me of some 18th century paintings I have seen. The grand square with the people (and birds) moving about...the great sky and architecture, all make this a great shot. There was a artist named Antonio Canaletto, who painted these types of scenes. His were mostly Italian scenes, but they were in this style.
Easily my favoutite shot of yours you have posted here!
Perfect sky for b/w.
I love the detail and tones you can just make out from the buildings in the background.
My only slight nit-pick wold be that Nelson is lost against the sky. Otherwise perfection Luana.
Just done this in a bit of a hurry, want to try and correct that =]
