Nice, but I'd have preferred it if the woman was carrying a marks and spencer bag instead of a tesco's carrier.
Call me picky.....

Wow, Brent, thank you for studying the picture so closely and seeing so much in it.
Most of our towns have low buildings, except for really big cities like London and Birmingham.
Thanks again for the comments.
Flick.

Kind of amazing how much you can see w/o really seeing anything. The closeness of the two, the aloneness of the one on the sidewalk, the feel of the day - perhaps coats and low-townlike buildings not countryside. Very fun to take the mind on a ride instead of having everything pointed out :-) Thanks. Brent

Hi Adrian, Thanks:-) Glad you like it.
I used to paint with watercolours in the days when my eyes were up to using 00 brushes ;-)
This, however, is just as it came out of the camera, except for the colour change.

g'day Flick - painting with light again? ;-)

while this capture is readily identifiable as a photo, it shows a masterly background in watercolours?

As Chris said below - wonderful atmosphere - i also really enjoy the minimalist feel, the v.subtle tones - very sculptural also (alien like ;-)

thanks heaps Flick - a ripper. adrian
