Comment from Glena Jessee-King
This is lovely Mixed Media Photography from the sides and the wall and the bell in the middle and on through to reveal the two boats in water, the distant mountains and sky. I really like the framing of the bell; it is truly the focus and best wishes in the contest.

your welcome

Comment from FBI GUY
Your POV is very intriguing. It appears that you are even of just above the bell. The background makes the shot. Your lighting is fine and focus is sharp. The shot has creativity and maybe bravery depending on the risk taken to get this shot. My guess is that this is not the original way the bell was hung.

Comment from Thomas Blanks
Nicely done with the water behind. Is that the Ionian Sea? I went to Greece, but the village of Stoupa doesn't ring a bell. Haha, sorry. I couldn't resist.

Comment from JirinaInspire
Great photograph of the old bell so nicely framed with walls and arch of the church structure. The background filled with the sea, boats and the town in the back are so nice to view.
Wonderful composition and contest entry.

Comment from Celyn1
This is a great framing shot that is well in focus and has great colours. The only thing that I don't like about it is that the rope detracts from the boats at the back. Still I don't suppose you could have done much about that.
Good luck with it

This is a wonderful entry for the contest! Fits the bill perfectly. You have framed it well. The light and shadows, colours and composition have worked out well. Good luck!

Comment from Charlotte Morse
What a great entry for this competition! And what a lovely photo!
Your image is sharp throughout, with great detail, particularly on the stone arch and the bell - that chain holding the bell up is so real I feel I could almost touch it!
The colours are amazing and realistic, especially the green patina on the bronze bell.
Very good luck in the contest.
Charlotte
