The Vatican

Wow! This is stunning. Great composition and tones. Fantastic work :)

Stunning, yes.

Very cool perspective of this awesome building :))

excellent angle and treatment. great shot. ( It looks like they have elected a new pope with that whispy cloud in the centre:)

Thanks heaps Jess, Shelly, SaRaHKnOwDoG, Caroline, Mark! :D

Fabulous sweeping scene :)

Welcome back PLV

The sky in this is just perfect! Great details in the stone work.

Holy.. holy!

Just simply gorgeous. Love the lines, the curves, the wonderful sky!

What a superb perspective and with that curling cloud in the centre just brilliant.

Thanks so much Mel, Mark, Chris, lightsmith and Geoff! :D

the sweep of the architecture is fantastic Paul, I think the choice of B/W is a wise one to accentuate the design aspect

Awesome paul : ) ..I love the angle… well done Wen x

Excellent Paul!!

Impressive!!!

Your usual top standard

Fantastic perspective!

Fanbloodytastic PLV, you’re eye certainly hasn’t let you down here.

It’s the angle that really makes it for me, almost as though it’s been done to capture the cloud where it is as the cloud pull horizontally against the perfect verticals of the architecture. The processing is superb (as ever) and the light on the Vatican is strong and bright showcasing all the details in the stone.

I love the perspective and B&W

Great angle Paul and love the B&W.

Stunning composition and tones, and that sky is something else…!

I have a similar shot I’m yet to process Paul but not half as good as this.. amazing..

Love this shot the moody sky is great and the detail and contrast are spot on. Nice perspective too.

Fantastic perspective, Paul, love the lines and shapes and light and shade! And what a sky!!!

Sensational lines!

Amazing shot Paul! I was just there myself, you’ve really capture the magnificence.
