I thank you in a special way for your feedback, since this is my favourite picture from the Balkan travel. Add that this remote countryside place is where the friend who invited me to Bosnia grew up. Now she moved to Italy, so this picture has a very particular significance for her - and for me as well.

The illuminated cloud as envelope for the church is highly decorative. Thanks as well for keeping this realistric and not removing the cables with Photoshop. Cheers, Martin

Removing cables??? Not even thought about this, but I understand: that way the potential tourists could think that in Bosnia people still live with candles, and would then hurry to such a romantic place.
I am not joking: in early 2011 I slept in a fairly basic house in Aït-Benhaddou. I could breathe an electric atmosphere of excitation all around, and I asked the reason. Here it was: The next day was an important day, because electricity was finally coming!
(That evening, by the way, we still had "Moroccan electricity": picasaweb.google.com/albertopedrotti/MaroccoNatale#5561055386920565826)
However, they added: For sure we will not throw the gas lamp away, since we know that European tourist like it!
As for the illuminated cloud, I chose to cut off many available side pixels, such that the main light band joined two opposite corners with its arch.
