It would be wonderful to live there and wake up to that view every morning. Excellent photograph IMO.

Nice mood in this image. I would crop out the blurry meadow at the bottom though since it's a little distracting to me.

Too much of empty foreground that doesn't do the photo justice. Crop it out, and adjust the light and contrast of the village (bit darker and with bit more contrast) and you will have a very good photo I think.

Lovely winter light. Good processing: I like the mild saturation but maybe you went a little bit heavy with the graduated filter on the sky. More important and easy to correct: there is a slight tilt to the left. No need to crop, perfectly framed as it is.

I agree with fog-one, no need to crop. Foreground is essential. Good picture. Upper ski could be a little lighter.

I went after grid lines and the photo seemed straight. Maybe it's from the landscape's slope, and the church tower might be a bit leaned. As goes with framing, this was my only option, it's shot from a moving car.

Thank for your support guys.

Please, look again. It is quite clear to me that the large house on the right of the church is leaning to the left. You will see it if you place the house roof at the top of your computer browser window.

fg-one, I think it is a matter of perspective: The ridge line of the church slopes the opposite way to the roof guttering on the house.

I would agree if a wide-angle had been used, but with a 50 mm? Here is the image with a +1° correction.
