Hello Maciej,

Your view from top is spectacular. How did you get this POV? It must be from a bridge. Excellent capture moment while one of driver targeting his eyes to you. Also blurry, part of visitors adds great value to your photo that its already in perfect color and sharpness. Congratulations.

Best Regards,

Ertugrul
