This looks like Olana... it has to be, there can't be that many buildings with that unique architecture. Beautiful, vibrant colors, though perhaps a bit too bright (they look almost neon?). A nice capture of the autumn color though with the building.

Looks like a painting. Great colors

Very interesting building!! I really like the composition of this shot, but the colors are too oversaturated for my tastes.

great colours, and good composition.

Slightly too bright and oversaturated (for my tastes anyway) HDR?
11/05/2006 12:02:39 AM
The colour is pushed too far IMO - into that cartoon world.

Awesome colors here.....
11/02/2006 10:07:03 PM
wow - vibrant colors! perhaps a bit overdone, but I like how the orange leaves are brought out against/amongst the grass, adn the orange tree sets off the orange/gold in the tower

The color of the grass is too vibrant for the rest of the picture.

Maybe a touch too much saturation, but the compositin and perspective is awesome.
11/02/2006 12:04:10 PM
Woah there! Easy on the saturation slider! :D Interesting place and quite the vivid colors I see.
11/01/2006 08:22:12 PM
This is lovely but the grass is a bit too yellow and the sky is a bit too cyan. The color on the trees and building work well. The low angle is causing the verticals to converge a bit; maybe some shifting of perspective in processing is in order. :)

Nice comp, but the orange seems a little too blown out relative to the other colors.
11/01/2006 03:28:30 PM
I love the colors. It seems like a fairytale! I want to go there.

Too saturated for me. Other wise a nice capture.
