What guided this image
Landmarks
Cañada; Cathedral of Córdoba; UNESCO World Heritage Jesuit Block; Centro Cívico del Bicentenario; Sarmiento Park; Güemes; Sierras Chicas and Sierras de Córdoba; lush temperate flora
Viewpoint
Favor the classic viewpoint along the stone canal of La Cañada looking down the water toward an arched bridge and the historic center, showing the massive tipa tree branches arching in the foreground, the stepped stone canal walls, bridges, and cathedral towers in the middle-ground, and the gentle blue-gray ridges of the Sierras rising in the background.
Palette
Green should be the predominant color, especially in the colossal arching tipa trees along La Cañada, Sarmiento Park woods, and the rolling slopes of the Sierras.
Guarded against
Avoid confusing Córdoba with flat pampas (Córdoba is characterized by La Cañada canal, grand Jesuit masonry, and the rolling Sierras backdrop).
