@alex: Actually, Alex, while going over comments on the last few in this series, I was just thinking about how much I want to go back there on our next trip to Chile, but this time, spend a few days taking everything I can. My dream would be to do a book and/or an exhibition just on Valparaíso. I was waiting to see if anyone would mention the couple specifically, because I wanted to say, myself, that I was so pleased that I caught the man in that pose.
I like the feel that I am at the top looking down!!! I can see forever and the way you have framed the lead building gives the viewer a true sense of height!! The different angles are perfect!!

@Lost Valley: Thank you. Good angles are easy to find here, I can tell you.
I like the guy who appears to be sorta acting all cool talking to the girl in pink - i dig on how he is leaning on the Jesus in the window building. Great POV

@Rabbit: Thanks. I really like him, too.
This looks a really interesting place to visit, I think it would keep you very fit, walking up and down the hills! but the views make the journey worth while. Another great capture of this wonderful place!

@MaryB: Thanks for the comment. It's an absolutely fascinating place for me, and yes, we did get quite a bit of exercise that day.
Very nice composition, great views indeed!

@Markus: Thanks, Markus.
Well chosen POV which adds fine perspective and depth. The figures are caught so naturally and the environs are so redolent with local colour and atmosphere.

@tengtan: Thanks for your approval on this one. As I've said in other replies to comments on this Valparaíso series, the hills above the port are such a wonderful place to photograph.
Nice capture, love to see the "scene".

@Dawn Sutherland: Thanks Dawn. Yes, this is a part of the "scene" as it is played out in the streets up there.
Awesome perspective and what an incredible richness in narrative elements =)
