I was also reminded of Stephen Shore and similar photographers. I almost hung it in the gallery.
Dang! So close ... serious, this whole batch of comments is really appreciated -- that old, slightly faded color slide/print look is just what I was trying for; I thought it matched the subject matter.
I also like that it's a capture of a one-time opportunity, being shot from a high seat in a bus, which was briefly stopped at an intersection, and which it's not that likely I'll be riding again.
I'll have to look up Stephen Shore -- I'm not familiar with his work ... OK, maybe you were thinking of something like this?
For contrast (sic), here is the "original" edit of this shot, before desaturation
Hmm, my eyes are telling me this is a pretty mundane scene with nothing special about it and so I should give a fairly mediocre score too. Much like many Stephen Shore images however, it has something about it I really like and can't quite put my finger on. Good job :). 7
I would have liked to see this picture with less dirt field and sky, they detract from the picture. I think if you crop this it would definitely be an interesting look.
