I like it and wonder how does the whole building look like. The tones are calming. Great shot!

see for example [link]

whole platform is inspired by legend, where czech king Vaclav IV, son of famous Charles IV (and at same time emperor of Roman empire) ordered to torturing and killing Jan Nepomucky (general vicar of czech catholic church). When Jan was throwed in Prague into river Vltava, 5 stars in water appears and shine.. This was only one of miracles after his death.
He was soon declared as saint and he belongs among most famous saints in whole world but U probably know this.

This sanctuary is full of mysticism, symbols..outside&inside,like many others masterpieces from genius architect Santini.

I really like the balance of light and dark in this image! The silhouettes of the trees on the left contrast amazingly with the light peeking out of the clouds on the right.
Great tile as well!

That light's amazing! Did you just get lucky with it, or did you have to wait around for hours?
I love everything about this shot, the curve of the hill is perfect, the tones are spot on, but that light....
genius!

Lovely composition and lighting. The tones are perfect. I like a lot the position of the church (and the church too) which fits so well on the curve of the hill. Great work
