Different styles, a photo from Cordoba, Andalucia

Photographer's Note

Just below the walls of the Mezquita were these two buildings, different in style but to my eyes quite attractive.
I have no idea how old they were in comparison with the Mezquita, but I liked their features.
A close up of one of them in the workshop.

Thanks for looking.

Hello Jean,

Indeed three different frontages but all three beautiful.
The corner it seems a fairy tale place.
Lovely sharpness and clarity.
People are a nice addition, make the scene completely.
Very well done, TFS.

Best regards,
John

Hello Jean,
The smaller buildings on the right side seem to have been restored in recent years, made to look almost new, while the larger one has an older appearance. They are all quite beautiful, and along with the people gathered here they would be tempting to any photographer. The nearest bench fills an empty space well. I like the colours of them all and the good exposure.
Best regards,
Gert

Hello Jean,

The buildings are so very different in their styles, yet because of their colours, the differences are not immediately obvious.
I think the one on the left is the older of two.
Have you noticed, the patterns on the top of the roof seem to be mimicked in the window styles of the the right-hand building!

I like how you have managed to get the right angle turn on the thirds line. Maybe, after many photographs, this compositional skill becomes quite natural.

Have a good w/e,
Bev :-)

Hello Jean,
I thought it was taken in Morocco till I read your notes.
Because the style is very 'moroccan' esp the red building and the blue window frames ( a bit over the top ). I like the close-up too in WS.
I do find the walls - window's balcony ??? interesting. I wonder what are for - only for the appearances, looking pretty...well, its can't competes the new designs for sure.
Overall, very well seen and fine taken shot.
Tfs, Loong

Hi Jean
A very well observed and composed captured with appeal and interest. The colour contrast which is the meat of this image, is caught just like what a book in travel photography says!
Best regards

Good morning Jean,
Andalucian styles on both buildings, each from a different era.
I find the windows pattern most elegant, and the picture well employed the shaded corner.
Wish you a nice weekend,
Ike

Hello Jean,
I think I do remember the red building.
Especially the windows with the columns attract our attention.
Wonderful in the Moorish style.
In comparison to the Mezquita, both houses have recently been refurbished and look well maintained.
Best regards, Paul

Jean, that building has a beautiful architectural style. The windows and the friezes draw attention. A souvenir shop is established at street level. The tourists on the plaza animate the scene. Fine colors, good sharpness, regards.

Hello Jean,
These two buildings are both attractive, and they contrast each other well. I like the Arabesque details of the windows with the blue trim. There's just enough activity in the scene to add extra interest but not make it feel too full. Take care!
