Hi Joe, I have been in Monpazier a few days ago, your photo is a fantastic tribute to this wonderful medieval city!

Hi Joe...I like your image very much. The juxtaposition of the soft pink roses with the ancient stone of the church works very well. The point of view you selected and the great depth of field shows mastery of your art...Bob

Thanks, Bob. Glad you liked it. When I walked through the rose strewn arch and saw the church I just knew I had to shoot it! -- Joe.

Great shot, Joe! The wide-angle perspective really makes this one very interesting - Nice!
Joe Bonita replied:
Glad you like it, Mike. This was done with a 15 mm on a full frame camera, which made the extreme depth of field possible. -- Joe.

Joe~Great job on this photo. Love the contrasting textures, plus the pov with the diagonal lines to add drama. Excellent color without being overdone.

Thanks to you all, my friends Ann, Jeff, Pat, Julie, Elise and Tara. I just couldn't resist taking this picture once I walked through the archway surrounded by the roses. A wide-wide angle lens sure did help. -- Joe.
