I actually decided to not crop out the top and bottom because it gave a sense of where the photograph was taken (dumbo, brooklyn)...i like the different textures and colors...plus...there are bricks everywhere. the title was not referring solely to the bluish brick wall...
@MeMex,i like to shoot my subjects dead center when shooting wide...and it was a caught moment.
but i do really appreciate all the feedback, comments and suggestions!
How important was the road and the buildings behind the blue wall? might want to remove one or the other via cropping. I think it would really enhance the photograph.
I like the concept and colors. I think if the cyclist were not centered and if you cropped to the top of the wall
and to the white sidewalk that it would have been a stronger composition.
I like this shot. The color on the wall and the contrast from the other elements really make it nice. I wish she was looking ahead, instead of at you though. Nicely seen!
