Shot in Shop Street, Galway, during the Galway Arts Festival. I didn't shoot this with the challenge in mind but I think it fits nicely. Well, that's if the DNMC people can get over the yellow building, without which, this would be a very boring pic indeed.Hopefully this will get me out of the fours!

Oh wow. So SO close to the top ten!
My best yet. At least I got my beloved 50mm 1.4 into the top ten challenge scores for its type. Thanks for all your great comments. All appreciated :-)

The richness of color in this image is simply arresting. The strong diagonals along with the curves of the windblown fabrics provide a lot of visual interest to the composition. I've looked through your portfolio and you have a really good eye for perspective. Adding this to favorites!
I have seen this several times and I just hink it is amazingly well done, I can't really suggest an improvement, just wanted you to know I think its beautiful.
Ahh, I can't believe this isn't on the first page. This was one of my very favorites (although in this challenge there were so many great entries). Congrats on the top 20
