Superb impact here. A lovely composition that brings out the intrinsic beauty of the image with some amazing colours and lovely textures. the contrasts work fine as well while the lights and other parameters are greatly managed. good work with a superb pov and perspective.

Hej
Very nice contrast between the red brick roofs, the white side wall with the important message and the tiled faзade to the right. A slight touch of cubism.
Trevlig eftermiddag,

Hello Anders,
Nice shot, i like especially the colors on the roofs contrasting with the logo on the white wall, the little street at the foreground is excelent placed.
I also heard that about the Sandeman tramark.

Olб Anders,

unfortunately I cannot help you into your question but I've heard about this famous trademark before. Ok, lets's talk about your compo. Those red roofs make an interesting background for the main subject which is well placed in the frame. The effective sharpness and saturaton help those roofs to make this image a lot attractive. I like this view!
Regards,
Carlos

Hej Anders,
Once again these fantastic rooftops with bluish orange colours. Again something Cйzanne would have liked. There is also a very clear message in this picture. Did you try any Sandeman?

Hej Anders,
Another creative capture!
The red roofs are domination the frame, which only makes the impact from the trademark stronger...
I like the composition with inclusion of the house upper right, and the narrow street in the centre!
Greetings,
