This has a very nice play of light and shade on the warm color of the buildings.

The light on that sort of stone is to die for I live in the city of Bath and most of the bulding are made of a stone that takes on such a beauty when the sun is on it. Phil

Love the shot, but it could use a little more contrast in my opinion. Great job from one Philadelphian to another.

Thanks Brad. I have actually been thinking the same thing myself the more I step back from this photo. I liked the warmth of the sunlight and was trying to avoid harsh shadows that I thought might be distracting, but I do think there's a middle ground and that this photo would be more powerful with a slight bit more contrast. Thanks for the feedback!
