Hello Daniel
Beautiful palace, I see from the text of the rich history but also with a lot of nice interior and a wealth of works of art.
Fabulous architecture, excellent contrast with the clear blue sky.
The presence of people is a nice touch too.
Sharp light and shadow on the diagonal.
Excellent photo work.
Kind regards
Saša

Hello Daniel,
Your point of view and a wide angle lens have enabled you to capture a goodly proportion of this massive palace. Fine management of the light and shadow contrasts; very good colours and clarity. The visitors enliven the scene and supply scale.

Hello Daniel,

This is an occasion when the shadow is very much an integral part of the photograph, creating a very strong diagonal of contrasting light. I just love the lady who is half in shadow and half illuminated!
The building is sharp and nicely lit in a well judgec composition.

Have a good day,
Bev :-)

Bonjour Daniel,

Il y a beaucoup de choses à voir dans cette très belle composition.Le palais royal est vraiment superbe sous cette lumière forte qui donne des ombres aussi fortes et bien définies.

Amicalement

Ciao Daniel
hai trovato delle giornate bellissime per fare queste foto, la luce è come quella di primavera, il cielo è blu, manca solo una temperatura adeguata.
Magnifico palazzo, anche la piazza deve essere enorme.
Saluti
Carlo

Hello Daniel.
Fantastic this sunny day, which shines like a jewel, the beautiful facade of the Royal Palace to the Plaza de la Armeria, a large POV with the diagonal of the shadow in the foreground, which still highlights more clarity of the whole.
Well done. I like very much.
You have a good day.
Very best regards.
Luis.

Hello Daniel,
the role of the dynamic and graphic shade on the left has given great impact to the bright view of the palace, the blue sky is another attractive part of the natural frame you set around the iconic facade. It's great that you managed to keep all the elegant architectural details intact, despite the strong lighting contrast. Congratulations and thank you!
All the best, have a good night,
Ourania
