Premium Photo Competition 2013 Q2 : Entry Number 262

A day in life well captured. The contrast is interesting, the timing perfect. We like it.

Thanks for considering this photo for the "Mark of Excellence". I am so proud! I took the photo during a trip to Kraków, Poland. It displays the so-called Pope Window, where the late Pope John Paul II appeared during his visits to his home city Kraków. It is a well-known spot in Kraków and I wanted an unusual photo, so I made my friends wait until a street car passed. I liked the color combination of the blue car against the yellow wall. It also puts the "shrine" in the window into an everyday and worldly setting. It was taken with a Sony Nex-7 and a Zeiss Biogon f2.8 ZM lens.
