Eugenio, congratulations on your 100th photo!!!
F828 is supposed to be the latest and best equipment from Sony, how come you have grains, especially on the waters?
Image slightly overexposed and castle/island is a bit centered
This location has lot of potential, did you shoot it from the airplane or what?

Thanks for the comment. I have not picked at the most behind her up from an airplane but from a mountain with the zoom and then I have effected a crop. Perhaps for this that some trouble is seen. Of the F282 I am satisfied and I believe that I am a good camera.

I like the perspecitve for this shot. I wish the whole backyard was better lit, as now there is a bit much shadow on the little island. I also like how the shapes of the trees come through.

Very nice picture Eugenio. The colors of the emerald lake are beautifull and the lightning is ok. IMHO the composition would be better with the castle out of the center or maybe some seagull's to fill it up with. But overall a very nice picture!!

Well done!!

Hi Eugenio, this one really work to me. A great view for this Castle on the lake of emerald. Composition is fine. For my personal taste, it will be perfect if there have a ship on the lake for decoration. Overall is a good photo and thanks for sharing.

I for one love this shot. The whole little island feel and the mott. Very cool. The water color gives and the water stillness give the castle island a bit of a suspended feel. Great angle too. Very well done.

I knew the Toblino Castle, but I didn't know this perspective of it, which, I think, is taken from the mountain dominating over it. And it's surely something of interesting and unusual, becouse in this way you've been able to obtain this nice wiew of the little peninsula where the castle is immersed in the fine green water of the lake. And the Toblino Lake's water is always green.
I like this your intuition of choosing this new frame, and the shadows on the water are surely something of particular. I only see a little of "grainy" in the extreme parts of the image, but maybe it could be due to my monitor.
Complimenti, davvero una bella cosa. Ciao.

Hi Eugene, this is very odd. i am sure i wrote a critique for this one and now i see it's disappeared. have you reposted the photograph? i am positive i did sent my critique. now to the photo. i recall i critisized the noise and the position of the castle (suggestion to move the top frame 1 sm. down). still very good shot and fantastic location. regards, Pedro.

Hi! Nice perspective of the lake and castle well composed. Color of the water is very good and the light is not too harsh, although there is a slight overexposition (see the whites near the castle). Nice photo anyway! Jose Paulo

Water colors are beautifully rich and delicate. The composition is pleasant though the shadows are a bit too dark and closed.

WOW...Since this is pretty much where I'd like to spend my days I'd like to have a bit moe information as to where this is located. Other than that I love the colors and placement of the shot. Well done! I'd like to know if this was fresh or salt water and again, a general location would be helpful. Sweet shot, thankx for sharing.

the color of the water in your photo is absolutelly excellent. but the lighting made the water a bit flat. i would also change the composision by taking the castle to the left side of the frame and leave the right side open

Very nice scene of this residence jutting out into the lake. Beautiful water color and I really like the shadows cast upon them by the trees. This sharpened up pretty good, Eugenio!
