A pleasant scene with the city nicely framed. Your model's position though has anaesthetised the shot, making it too personal and leaving the viewer aware of the pose. This would have been more emotive with the person more distant, perhaps walking away from us.
It may even have worked well having the person standing much closer so that we see only shoulder and back of head, as if looking daunted at what the city may hold. It sometimes helps to try and see things through the eyes of a film director for shots like this.
Hi. Reminds me of NJ's Meadowlands. Perfect level of sharpness and great contrasts throughout. Swirling crop-circle shapes in the center with verticals in foreground and background. I love the composition and the loneliness of this photo. Thanks.
That's a really nice interesting shot. It shows City and it shows Life. I live on the very outskirts of a large city (although much further from the centre than that shot). I like the use of black+white - it simplifies the photo and let's the viewer focus on shapes and lines and textures.
I wish the person's head stood out just a little more from the dark trees, but otherwise, this is a lovely composition!
A lot of the "dnmc" snobs will be voting this low because of your interpretation, but don't let that discourage you.
Very nice! I like the concept of viewing the city from the outskirts. I like the way the curvy lines of shrubbery lead the viewer into the skyline. Great effort!
