Magnificent mural dedicated to the Serbian writer, strong face expression, Pavle, and yet the painting has beautiful colors.
You very well allocated the picture space, with side view of the road ahead on left side.
My best regards,
Ike

Hello Pavle

A superb mural and nicely captured and photographed. Good sharpness, colour and saturation. Plenty of breathing space right around. Tfs!

Pozdrav Pavle, that wonderful mural depicts a famous writer. He is wearing a beret and is surrounded by flowers. That artwork prettifies the neighborhood. Fine colors, good sharpness, regards.

Hello Pavle,
This side of the house is an excellent place for a large mural and you captured it very well here. It adds some fine colours to the street here.

Hi Pavle
wow, this is great, one of my favorite posts from you.
We don't see too many murals on TE from this city or country, i'm so glad you took this photo and posted it. Also, the WS photo lets us see it in the wide street view which i enjoy also. great post. cheers

Hello Pavle,
This is a much better than average wall painting, clearly made by a professional. It brightens the grey wall enormously and it is also a fine tribute to a man whose life was largely destroyed because of his opposition to the regime. The photo is clear and sharp and the WS is a good complement.
Best regards,
Gert

Hello Pavle,

This mural has been painted by a talented artist and makes a strong statement on the side of the house.
It is a little unnerving as he seems to be looking straight at the viewers and seems to know what they are thinking!
Your photograph is both sharp and well saturated, neatly composed with the rule of thirds in mind.

My warm regards,
Bev :-)

Hello Pavle,
What a beautiful mural, and it looks perfect on the corner of this building. The colors will continue to brighten this spot for many years. I like the wider view in the WS, too. Take care!

Zdravo Pavle,
vrlo ћivopisni mural, stvarno mi se sviđa ova ideja. Kuća i okolina su lepo uređeni s njom.
Čini se da je to slika odličnog kvaliteta.
Lepo snimanje ovde sa slikom dobro predstavljenom u kontekstu svakodnevnog okruћenja.
Lepo se provedi za vikend,
M
