The vibrant red captured me...

A water droplet? Something else? ;)

Brandon, this is a lamp on the ceiling :)

Beautiful work! I really like the symmetry which you have captured here - the spacing is wonderful.

Best,
Jon

@Martine
taken early today at zürich airport :)

@Beamer
thanks :)

Hey, Vernon, have you ever, or would you be willing to do a tutorial on this color treatment? I see you use it a lot and have always been curious how you get it so nice.

@Beamer
this kind of toning takes some time (0,5-2 hrs) and depends of the "content".
this shot has a triple toning in split-mode,
mostly done by using 3 tone layers for each shade of grey available in the shot.
so if you have 15 grey values, you have 45 layers just for toning. the adjustment takes the longest time.

:-)

I knew it wasn't something with 1 button...

such a dynamic shot
congrat one more time

Did you shot this one during the Great Exhibition of 1900 ? :)
Very interesting, the way you have 'isolated' the tower from the surroundings, people, and animation of the town. I think the B&W also participates in this feeling. And the wide angle distorsion brings undoubtedly a plus.

Very cool.

ha ha. I clicked on the thumbnail and kept waiting for the page to come in focus.
Life is great.

hehe, so the trick worked...
cheers Ana :-))

Featured... at last !!!!!!!
Congratulations Vernon !

very nice lightning ;)

I have seen many of your piece VT, but in many regards this is one of the most stunningly artistic and moving.

oh my, a double feature :)

thanks everyone for your feedback.
cheers,
VT

good one!

Well, its about time this featured - but why is every second feature these days in the square format topic? Is there some hyper-active square format users, or what?

Well my friend you know what I think of this image, those hands are complete poetry. :)

@craig,
perhaps is there some more activity, who knows :)

@neoloop & tracy & all
thanks for your feedback and the feature :)

the light and texture are fantastic!

a fantastic shot in your style!

Great picture. Good use of black/white and depth.

Geez I wonder where you took this. ;)

nice one, but i think because of the high perspective there's to much surrounding area around the repetition.

thanks for your feedback, taikrixel :-)

about which repetition are you talking?

there are more repetitions in this pic,
the chairs
the stone flower tubs
the stairs
the statues
the small pillars in the curb
the water reflections in the sand ground

... only the human subject has no repetition :-)

Very very nice, the models skin tone compliments the background wondefully

thanks dave, glad you like it. :)
