Havent seen it before the crop Penny but it looks real good. Agree that a shallower DOF would make it even better but dunno how much different it would be for f4. ~Chris

thanks - Penny Street

Didn't see it before the crop but it looks nicely centered now Penny. I think a little shallower DOF might have made this a little more effective, but it's still nice.

Good job composing the busy construction scene Penny. I agree that f/4 might have made the prongs stand out a bit more but this works very well as is. I like all the different lines and curves of the different elements going every which way. CJ

okay - slight crop performed. Is it better? Penny Street

Good visual challenge to accept the centered fork to be really centered - actually just below center (middle). A slight crop could fix it. -tv

Thanks for the comments. Penny Street

Somehow the forks draw all the attention. Good example of what we should be trying to accomplish. Keep it up and you'll be hosting again. -Doug

I think it's because the fork prongs don't jump out at us that makes this work so well. The scene looks totally natural & quite busy but I only have eyes for the prongs. So you have done something very right here a.

I'm not sure I got the fork prongs to stand out enough? But you get the idea.
I would have moved to f4 if it had been totally planned out well (or used another lens like roll the bone and Sue Anne). But I think the busy background still works okay. Penny Street

Up there for thinking Penny, well done. You made a good composition out of a messy scene here. If we can have a centred focal point like this picy I think it will open more doors for picys a. Nicely done megirl.
