Great use of light and shadow in conjunction with the architectural texture of the buildings!! Absolutely fabulous. This is one of the best photographs I've ever seen. It's interesting on all levels. Thanks for putting a smile on my face!
Excellent shot and works great in black and white. Any time you can have so many ot the elements of design incorportated in your work you are going to be successful. Good Luck. JG
Very sharp! Great contrasts. Shooting from dark to light (or vice versa) is very hard, but you pulled this off very well!! I'm not fully involved with the shot (lower interest), but it's much better than the 7 I started with. 8 Swash
This is a very well composed picture. The verticle lines of the railing work well with the oblique ones of the stairs, and the arches create a nice frame for your subject, the window. Great job.
