I appreciate all of the comments. Popular opinion is that I should not have used the radio. I took a bunch of shot without the radio, then thought that adding the radio might add interest. I was wrong. Thanks to the "hams" that said howdy, de Pete N4BHB
I thought that was a ham radio, but wasn't completely sure. Used to be pretty involved, haven't done much in a couple of years though. I really liked the picture, too. The structure really pulls your eyes upward. Good job- Karmat (KE4QZK)
A very strong geometric picture. I think some of the effect was lost by not centering the expanse of the tower, giving all three sides an equal role. How was the reception?
I love how your eye is drawn up into the tower. having the phone there is a nice idea but If somehow it could have been smaller I would have liked it better. The sky gives nice, needed color. Good work!
Phone seems underexposed to me. I'm not sure whether you needed the phone at all ... the tower from this angle has plenty of patterns and lines to create interest. Still liked it anyway
Oh no... it was such a cool photo but you killed it with the cheesy radio in the middle. get rid of that and just wait for some clouds to pass and you've got a great photo.
i like this. I love the way the bars zig-zag all the way up showing the perspective even more. I just wish the walkie talkie thing there would've been a little clearer.
okay, this is definitely from the ground up, however, in a picture like this, i think it's really important to have everything centered, and this one isn't, which takes away from its greatness
I like the concept here. Excellent composition. I like the natural look of the scene. You caught a great piece of sky and exposed for it will keeping the tower well exposed. If you would have focused just beyond the hyperfocal distance to keep the radio in focus you would have had a winner by my eye. I rated this photo high. Keep up the good work.
