Personally, the tilt does bother me, but I do realize it is a somewhat spontaneous shot, so I tend to forgive this.
Also, the composition seems to lean on a dynamic balance that is a bit skewed, exacerbated by the tilt. It does create visual tension, but I think it goes a little too far, some more balance is needed.
This is just too cool for words. I love the juxtaposition of the two characters and the fact that viewing this image raises questions instead of giving answers. Great find! :)
I've viewed this photo before and was wowed the first time, too! I think it is just exceptional. Love the expression, interaction, everything about it.
The way the real and created persons mirror each other is quite remarkable. The framing works well. I'm just a little bit distracted by the artwork itself. It's too good. It's so fabulous that it risks dominating your photo with another person's vision. But let me put a more positive spin on it: you have done an excellent job of documenting this piece of art, which was meant to exist in its larger urban context. If I were the artist, I would be thrilled to see this photo and I would want to use it on my website (with all due credit and hyperlinkage provided).
dang, it's too big! (I bet you've heard that before) Okay, now you have to wait until tomorrow so I can look at it on my big flatscreen at work. ... took the day off, furnace problems. but you are still on my radar. Tomorrow!
you're getting good at these candids! I like this one.
Perfect time, perfect place. The drawing at the wall makes it complete. The fact they're both looking at the other way adds to the atmosphere.
Nice job :)
Almost word-for-word what I was going to write before I scrolled down the page. : )
