@dj.tigersprout: Thanks, DJ! This was my first holidays with a DSLR. To be honest: I just bought the camera for the trip to Estonia. I am happy that I still managed to get some good shots even when viewing them tree years later (when my skills hopefully have improved a bit) ;-)

Wonderful composition Mirko, the contrast of the white against that stunning blue sky is spectacular! Great architecture!

An unusual and interesting perspective coupled with good composition and fine detail make this image excellent.

A beautiful composition, Mirko, and one that should be in a high quality travel magazine. I don't mean to slight your wonderful work here, but I would try to tone down the brightest whites, myself. A mere detail, though.
