Pray and pay, a photo from Southern Finland, South

Photographer's Note

The title is based on the two buildings that stand out in this shot...Helsinkis Lutheran cathedral in the back and the colored old market hall at the lower right which is full of restaurants and vendors.

Hello Philipp,

Beautiful view of the place from Helsínquia.
The Pov is excellent.
And you did a great work of desaturation with only one house with this fabulous yellow/red.
Regards,
Filipe

Perfectly straight, sharp, perfectly composed with the selectively coloured building in just the right place and excellent exposure. Good work Philipp.

Hello Philipp
very interesting view of Helsinki, a city i've never seen.
I don't know why you have choosen to desaturate all but the market. Maybe it is such a coloured building to attract the sight even in a normal view. Isn't it?
Cheers Matteo

Interesting work Philipp. sometimes these kind of mix between colours and bw function as in your post here. A good crop and compo including essential details of the place.
