3d place - la détente sur la Promenade des Anglais - Colin
by

Nice, France

Some stroll, others sit.
All are taking in the last moments of the warm evening sun.

Rough translation to English: Relaxing on the English Promenade.

other sizes: small medium original auto

So odd, we are 4,000+ miles apart and it appears you were on the other side of a photo I took a couple days after you took this one. That just amazes me. We must be having the same vision Colin! I guess we do have the same sun :o) Of course I love this shot!

With this, I like to look at just the top fourth, without the shadows, then slowly scroll down and down and down. The really good image just gets better and better and better. I wish I knew French. Stefan

I did look at the crop and it didn't really work for me so I decided to change the title (but leave it in French, to give a better context to the image - Apologies if my French translation is wrong...

Man, that crop you are talking about is deterrent. Four shadows coming. Live it as it is. It's on theme and good one.

Leon, thanks, I see what you mean - becomes even more sinister...

Colin, have you tried looking only at the lower part of the photo? I like it how it is, but I think it could benefit even more by cropping out the people in the background and by just leaving the foot and parts of the shadows.
