Lots of potential here but it comes across as fuzzy and overexposed.

I wondered why so I moved the jpeg into Aperture for a closer look. It looks sharper, more contrasty and richer in that program.

I'm no colour- or processing guru, but I wonder if the flickr link is doing a poor job. Perhaps try attaching images directly to your message from your computer using the link on the page where we type?

Dobro došao na forum, Ivane!

Welcome to the forum, Ivan!

Certainly a novel view of the old town. I've never seen it like this before.

Very nice comp, love the wide angle. A click or two of (-)EV to
darken the image and it is there.

Take care,
Dwayne Oakes

Dobrodošli Ivana !

I was in Kotor a few years back. Probably one of my favorite places of the region! I photographed from up on the switch-backs on the way down the mountain from visiting Lovćen National Park and wish I had had the time to make the climb up to some of the fortress walls.

When you save your images for Flickr or most any online photo server, make sure you convert the image to sRGB since most browsers are optimized for that colorspace.

Also, check the calibration and brightness of your monitor. What you see on your monitor should generally match up to both uploads and prints if you at least profile and better yet calibrate.
