My shadow are the two bumps on the far left, that’s my daughter standing beside me that looks like the fire hydrant. I thought they would add an aspect to the picture, .....WRONG. raj
Has a nice mood. I like the silence and calmness the photo transports because of the light and the long shadows (dawn or sunset ?) I would have zoomed in a litte bit. The post on the right side frames the photo wich is nice at first but when I take a sheet of paper and cover it on my screen it looks better somehow. Also the shadow of yourself taking the photo is a bit distracting because it's an "unnatural" dark spot in the middle of the light. Maybe when the car in the center would not have been there the photo would be even more "calm". Also the yellow sign makes a bit more busy but not so much because the color matches to the whole photo. Photo 7, Creativity 4, City Life 8 = 6
I could like this town, is that your shadow in the lower left, tisk tisk :-) Technicaly, exposure and focus, a good picture. Personaly, Ii would'ov picked an angle that excluded the backlit side of the street, just my opinion.
Okay.... life in this "city" is ... let's say "quiet"! LOL. I actually envy that. Is that your shadow on the lower left? May have been hard to eliminate. I like how the road and shadows of the poles lead my eye to the mountains.
Nice image. I think I would have stepped forward to get the fire hydrant(?) shadow out of the lower left corner. Did you take one from in the street? I like the hill/mountain in the background and the mission cafe sign. Not much life around there on Monday. 7
I just KNEW someone would shoot rush hour :) Seriously, lots of potential in the subject, but the lower right hand side 'really' hurt the shot. Maybe you could have gotten someone to park a bright car there? Also, is that your shadow in the lower left?
I like the light...it feels like a Monday morning. Could you have stepped back a little and zoomed in so that you wouldn't have gotten your own shadow in? At least that's what the thing at the bottom left looks like to me.
