Hello Denis,
A very attractive composition benefiting from a lovely ambient light. All the elements are well placed allowing the eyes to move gradually diagonally across the frame from left to right and creating a good sense of dynamism. Good natural looking colours and excellent sharpness. Thanks for sharing.

Hello Denis,
Nice mountain village picture. Good low POV regarding the churchtower. Because of this POV and the composition my eyes go from the church to the right up the mountain.
Effective contrasts betweeen the dark parts and the white church.
Beautiful light and natural colours.

Regards, Jan

Denis,
This is a great shot of this traditional church. Your composition is nice here with the off center placement of the church. The diagonal created by the mountain slope cuts the photo in half creating a very attractive shot. The lighting and colors are fine as is the photo's sharpness.
TFS,
Asa

Hello Denis,
The church is very well shaped, and the rest of the village's buildings are built in perfectly good architectural style. The beautiful surroundings of the village, excellent composition and incredibly high quality make the shot to be wonderful. Great job!
Best regards,
Sergiy

Bonjour Denis,

je me demandais ou se trouvait ce village? aprиs lecture de ta note je m'y suis retrouvй. Pas trиs bon Zufferey en gйo pour ce qui est du haut valais....

L'image est belle, les sapins qui ont commencй а changer les couleurs, la lumiиre et le cadrage en font une superbe composition. Bravo.

Hi Denis,
Beautiful village scenery and architecture.
The sharp lines of the lovely white church are very well seen surrounded by the traditional Swiss homes.
The blue sky mountain backdrop is ideal.
Regards, Tom

Hi Denise

As a native Swiss I have to click at Biel, even I have never visited the town so far. I did not know that it looks so picturesque. Thanks for giving me a chance to have a look at the town. I like your composition a lot with the church out of the center to boost DOF and the beautiful contrasts of green and blue. Excellent shot and photo job.

Thanks for your critique as well.

Mes amities.
Urs

Hello Denis, Lovely little Swiss village, well captured, excellent contrast & natural looking colour. The white church is the main focus but there are other lovely elements to make this an interesting & well as a lovely image.
Thanks

Hi Denis,
The landscape here really produces a lot of good diagonal motives. Here is also an addition of an unusually beautiful church!
Kind regards

Bonsoir Denis,

La blancheur de l'йglise attire au premier coup d'oeil, son architecture particuliиrement originale fait le reste. Le clocher est gйnial dans la forme йvolutive de ses pans. La lumiиre basse mais forte, de mкme que le petit cimetiиre а ses pieds donnent un charme fou а cette photo.Bravo.
Cordialement.
Guy.
