Riga: a panorama

Uploaded: March 23, 2008

Description

I made the photo on Friday in Riga, Latvia. I cropped it a bit and made slight changes in the overall image balance. NB! I did not use any effects: the reflections on the river are natural!

I'm back home now.

Tiia- Hope your having a fabulous day. This is just awesome. What a marvelous work you have done here. Beauty like this needs no effects. Its all there. Composition is outstanding. Love the way you lead us across the water. The reflections give it such a charming look. All the buildings done in perfect detail and color. A winner in my books.
Exquistie work.
You take care of yourself, be safe, have a joyous day #5683997
