Very dark place. The shadows are strong and result in a dramatic mood.
Nice composition. I like the inclusion of the leafs on the right side.

Hello!
Simply adore this image! The overcast sky, the light increases the contrast causing some of a dramatic effect. The chosen composition and pov, for me, are perfect! Thanks!

Privet Julia, so you say it's the smallest town in the world? Then look here :)))

Nice view of the old stones under the stormy clouds!

Hi Julia,
When I think of Crotia, I always visualize sunshine, green hills and beautiful mountains. This was what I saw years ago when I visited it. Apparently, your country has a dark side, too! ))) This stormy wheather and the deserted stone houses are really impressive. I love the atmosphere a lot. Very well done.

Julia,
You have captured the perfect light in a storm in those Balkan coasts. During my visit to the area some 6 years ago I saw nearly the exact kind of light but was unable to photograph it. Very well done. Excellent detail and balanced composition

That is an amazing stormy sky. But for a slight touch of red and green this could almost be in B&W. There is just enough light to show the details in the old buildings. Well done

You sure was in for a max effectful result on this day Julia. I like the dark weather and the some underexposed result here. Interesting photo under the storm

Hi Julia
Oh , when I first looked at this photo I really thought there was a bit manipulation. and in this case you took the photo at a very right time, probably as it was getting darker. really beautiful sky view. very impressive indeed

Hello Julia,
excellent and dramatic composition, I am impressed by those gray, menacing clouds and by the strange light on the old houses. Excellent perspective too.
Regards.

Hej julia
It's a very dramatic scene you showing up, a sky that could been in an El Greco painting. It's just to add som classic music to it and we will have a perfect scene for any tragedy.

The approaching storm and the underexposion creates very special atmosphere: this abandoned building looks like the scene of a thriller.

Hi Julia
Despite the difficult light condition your photo has a very good exposure, the amount of details are great, and it is well composed. However, the best of it is the mood that is represented here. One can feel the storm's wind and chill coming.
Excellent work
