Ahhh St. Pete's so full of history and beauty. This photograph is sharp and worthy of magazine publication. Please check it to see if there is a slight lean to the right. Rich in colour, and composed with the road leading us into the depth of the photo.

Holy Guacamole, this is good. Without that woman in the photo it still would have been a great shot but with that person there this image skyrockets to the top of the pile.

I'm trying to read the writing on the sign. Where is this church located?

WOW thank you for that link and it showed the interior of the church as well, that murano glass is stunning.

The picture would have been almost perfect without these annoying branches.

wow!!! I love the symmetry in this

A most powerful piece. The antithesis of "welcoming" as you note in your title.

Those gravestones in the yard look like a cheerleading group! You do have noise in the photo and if you have a denoise filter your shot would benefit. You did not snap this image, you walked around and tried to find the best composition and it shows for that gate frames the photo well, invites us in and therein lies your story. Nice one.

thanks still for the good comments

Great detail and tone
