Great perspective on this and I like how the lines lead right into the image.

Ronald Bijtenhoorn		08-Jan-2010 20:45
Like the strong lines on the road

Doug Cruden		08-Jan-2010 20:06
Hey! You haven't got any snow!!! I thought you guys were under feet of it??? A big bold study here Stewart, and good use of the Sigma UWA in an urban setting...only niggle would be that Top Man's LHS could be straightened up a little?? That notwithstanding, this is a terrific shot!

Great graphic lines in this one!

Mary Terry		08-Jan-2010 16:24
Excellent! I like the lines on the pavement.

Super shot! Perfect use of WA lens. I wonder about the lines too.

Interesting perspective and nice representation of the area.

Jeff Lobaugh		08-Jan-2010 03:42
This one strikes me as somewhat funny. Pedestrian signs for both short and tall people! Great find!

Michael Shpuntov		08-Jan-2010 02:24
Excellent urban B&W shot.

Ed McConnell		08-Jan-2010 01:18
interesting street markings..really adds to the b&w..great find and shot..

carol j. phipps		08-Jan-2010 01:16
Excellent! What are all the lines for?

Cindi Smith		08-Jan-2010 01:04
So you have to stay when he is staying? Nah...go ahead and cross the street. We do it all the time in Fort Worth. But, you try it in Dallas and you'll get a ticket! Love the lines the pov and I'm ready to cross now! Great idea and great shot!

Barbara Heide		07-Jan-2010 23:58
great patterns... what do these lines mean? Just in case we come over to see you far north...?

LynnH		07-Jan-2010 23:57
Oh yes... this is awesome! I love the POV - crosswalk light is like icing on the cake. Great work. V

I like the comp and the processing.. For me there needs to be some distortion correction though. The far building on the left is leaning at a very off angle. The bottom left needs to be pulled left a bit...

Walter Otto Koenig		07-Jan-2010 23:25
Interesting perspective and very cool distortions in this wide shot.

Guest		07-Jan-2010 22:58
lovely gritty image, powerful composition.

Phillip Normanton		07-Jan-2010 22:35
Is it just me, or is the 'Top Man' shivering in the cold :o)

Stephanie		07-Jan-2010 22:08
There's a lot going on here; but it all interacts together beautifully! :^)

regi olbrechts		07-Jan-2010 22:07
Superb compo. Well seen.

Kathryn		07-Jan-2010 21:54
Interesting perspective.

J. Scott Coile		07-Jan-2010 21:50
Great vision you've shown. What a perfect wide angle perspective!

Ilana gil		07-Jan-2010 21:40
Cool picture!

Guest		07-Jan-2010 21:29
Love the compo very much!

Guest		07-Jan-2010 21:23
Thanks for the addresss, I was wondering where I was... :) now I have to decide which path to take.... decison decision! ...and where do the women cross?

Guest		07-Jan-2010 21:21
Great perspective!! wonderful lines in this shot!!

Kevin Chester		07-Jan-2010 21:18
Superb composition , and nice edit too.

Gary Blanchette		07-Jan-2010 21:16
Such an awesome perspective.

Peter Ekl�f		07-Jan-2010 21:05
I like this one, the lines on the ground really make the picture

Bob Floyd		07-Jan-2010 20:51
All the lines are really cool...

McGarva		07-Jan-2010 20:09
Wonderful play with lines ... is the sublime message to be drawn to you as a Top Man?

lisamidi		07-Jan-2010 20:00
Wow, great opportunity for bw. So many interesting shapes and textures. And the stop light works so well: nobody is crossing the street.

Bernard Davis		07-Jan-2010 19:59
Another very graphic image of your city. More urban than historical this time, but still very powerful.

Fay Stout		07-Jan-2010 19:57
Great one for B&W! So many graphic lines and I like the little man on the signal. Good perspective!
