I think I like bold, well done:-)

Here's a slightly bolder crop. I wonder if anyone will notice.

I think the light gives life to the picy & the shadow patterns movement. I don't think a picy like this needs a top:-)

This is very nice, I like the stark pattern & shadow. However, I like the one in Pending because of the cars. They seem to complete the scene, giving life & movement, as well as rounding out the top of the picture.

You're half right Penny I am older:-) I like it like this, & that's all that matters:-)
ctfchallenge17-Mar-2008 13:08
Rod - I was trying to stand up for the crop I had posted, but I think you may be right on this one. (I could say something about your being older and wiser, but I won't). The original is in pending, in case anyone wishes to comment.

BLAND DESIGN!!!!:-) Penny I think the cars stop the picy from being a great design shot. If it's not a design shot wot isit? The cars give it a snapshot appearance & they compete with the very good play on shadows below. You have a very good play of angles & shadows here, just scroll the picy up in your browser to just above the round knobs on the rail & that's the picy I'm seeing. And I like wot I'm seeing:-)

I could go either way with the cars Penny. It's a little more graphic without them (and the building on the left) but you get a sense of place with them. CJ

Don't listen to Rod while he is high on pain killers- the cars are good Penny :-)

I sort of like the cars - then it's not just some bland old design.
Anyone else care to comment?

This works better for me when the cars are cropped out. Nicely seen Penny.

thanks CJ and Brent.

This really caught my eye with the thumb image. Well seen and taken Penny- great job of framing it all- nice work!

Well seen, Penny! This is a great shot and a nice use of high contrast. Cheers, -mikey

Like the gritty feel of the road - Debi

Cool, Penny. What a vision you have... and an excellent processing of it. ~Lydia

Nice textures. The contrast really highlights the pavement and makes the sidewalk look almost like wood. Well done!
