Night dinner in Camagüey Photo

Photographer’s Note

The night is approaching and a couple takes a dinner at a restaurant on the colorful San Juan plaza in Camagüey. The well maintained buildings from 1700 - 1800 century are glowing in green, yellow, orange and the sky is blue during the blue hour. A stroll around Camagüey during the evening hours is an experience no one should miss. Camagüey was rewarded the title city of the year 2008 by UNESCO.

Hello Jan Olof,
I like this night shot! Very good perspective view showing the houses, the people at tables a bit in the distance... and of course, the reddish light (reddish colour of a building?) at the end of the street! You are very good at capturing "the right" night atmosphere, with all its shadows, shades of colour, lighting, details and soft colour of the sky.

Composition-wise, it is almost perfect!
Concerning the bottom (the pavement) of the photo - it looks too "heavy" as compared to the light top, and too empty. So I would crop a little of the bottom (about 1,5-2 cm) and (optionally) add 1,5-2 cm to the top instead; but this is only my humble opinion...
Best regards,
Elena
