Wonderful City

Description

As cariocas (people who were born in Rio de Janeiro) call it, this is the "Wonderful City" (cidade maravilhosa) - or rather, a part of it.
This is the view as I left the city on a 737 airplane yesterday, on my way to Curitiba for a geography fieldtrip.
More photos are to come.
Canon 7D.

Hi there! I'm here to bring you this critique as a part of <img class="avatar" src="a.deviantart.net/avatars/f/e/f…" alt=":iconfeedbackfrenzy:" title="FeedbackFrenzy"/>'s event <img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/s/s…" width="15" height="15" alt=":)" title=":) (Smile)"/>

First thing I'd like to say is...I LOVE IT <img class="avatar" src="a.deviantart.net/avatars/i/l/i…" alt=":iconilavplz:" title="ilavplz"/> The nice smooth feeling from the colours and misty-ness in this piece instantly makes me feel calm and want to take an even longer look at this picture! Seeing as how you were on a plane too, it's great that there is no blurriness and that you were able to capture the scenery from such a wonderful perspective with a most filling composition <img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/h/h…" width="15" height="13" alt=":heart:" title="Heart"/>

I honestly don't know HOW this piece could be improved, but maybe change the lighting (or unchange the lighting, if you did any adjustments to it at all before uploading) of the picture so as to make the top left and bottom right of the picture less contrasting. Mainly because this is a scenery picture and, to me, should give off more of a calm and serene feeling (which it already is, mind you!), but if the colours were even more equal, it'd make the effect that much nicer!

So yea...not much to say about such a stunning piece already! Keep up the good work and I'm hoping to be able to visit cariocas one day and see this for myself! <img class="avatar" src="a.deviantart.net/avatars/m/o/m…" alt=":iconmonkeyloveplz:" title="monkeyloveplz"/>
