So here's where The Sound of Music was filmed in Salzberg, Austria.

Comments and critiques are welcome, though it might be hard to go back for any retakes.

Jessica, I think your composition here is fine. It is a good shot. I would critique the sky though here in that it is washed out a bit. You could have benefited from a circular polarizer to increase the saturation of the blue sky and to further define the clouds, but this can be addressed to a good extent in Photoshop. I would create a duplicate layer and apply the multiply layer property to it,(20% opacity is all you may need here) and then erase the effects from the areas below the skies. You could also just select the sky area and create a layer from the selection and apply the multiply effect to that layer. Many different ways of doing the same thing.
A fine image, but work the sky a bit for a better one.
Good work

I was thinking it could use a little saturation, Gahspidy said it better than I could have. It's a beautiful city and image, it just needs a little P/P :)

a cokin grad on the camera would have had a beautiful sky.. a slight under exposure would have been the only alternative without one.. then the post process tweak..

skies are nearly always the problem..

its still a nice image thow slightly blown sky or not..
