superb atmosphere, grats for being featured. and i think i see you in there. the shadow hitting the bench splits strangely, your shadow could end there.

This is lovely, superb long shadows and the golden light makes it even more beautiful!!

Wonderful shot - long shadows are powerful. Also they indicate something behind the viewer which gives the photo a sense of greater depth

Congrats!!

Beautiful. It's as if there's a virtual railroad there. (The lamppost taking the role of telegraph pole.)

This is really fantastic. The colors are truely amazing and all the texture from the peeling paint. Bonus, the webs are absolutely fantastic.

Well done mate, i have to love it!

Thanks mates for all the cool comments ;-))
This was shot in marseille - France (previously for the abandonned structure theme ;-) , in another ghost place..

Wow to the the colors and contrast!!!

Nice colors and composition.

It's awesome. How's it done?

Wow, very creative! Very anxious to learn the trick :)

it's a 30 seconds exposure (f9 i think) with a model on the bike .. and a guy had a maglight and made the outline with it toward the camera. it's a very simple trick

This is totally cooool :)

This is soooo fun! Painting with light...love it.

Glad to see this featured.
Excellent photo. :)

absolutely fantastic. love this.

Really good shot!

Fits the theme perfectly: i like your viewpoint and the colors.

Thank you!

this is so beautiful - incredible!

Hah... I'm not complaining at all (I have nothing against Photoshop in this context)... I'm just sharing thoughts... and I definitely enjoy when images cause discussion like this. ;)

The giveaway for me (aside from the lack of reflection that Eggplant mentioned) was the source of the light... The light on the animal seems very clean and directional (coming in from the upper-left), but the light on the window seems like it was coming from a different direction or was maybe diffused through some light clouds. And there would probably be a shadow on the tip of the nose, since it's inside the dark room a bit.

I also think the "fuzz" on the chin looks somewhat cropped... In real life it might stick out a little and overlap with the background more.

I definitely give it marks for sense of humor. Good stuff.

(BTW, I didn't mean to leave out Beckn32, who also mentioned the reflection.)

@lbstone - thanks a lot for taking the time and pointing out all the things i forgot to take care of while composing this picture. i appreciate that kind of constructive criticism a lot!
greetings, kurt

humerous - Donkey is way too large for the window though....

you have got to be kidding me! that is such a great capture...imagine though if it were a different animal...like a lion! :P

Thanks Ben! Its shot in Singapore.

Wow... that's wild.

Very cool stairs!

Very nice shot.
Looks like these building have taken a beating and keep on kicking!
Wonderful work!

Those stairs are crazy! Great shot.

Thanks for the feature everyone!

This would be so great for "in your face"

Congrats on your feature Sher!!:))

Perfect for the imagination. No butts about it!!

Even before seing it was you Ashish, I said to myself "Hey, this looks like an Ashish image !!"
As usual, great texture (out of time..) and compo ;-))

Wow thanks! I am glad that you can relate images to me!!

Well done. I especially like the scratches.

Excellent job and well worth the feature. How in the world did you create the fold down the middle? It's great.

Love the scratches, superb!!

This is Amazing! I love it.

Very nice. This is indeed a BIG CITY.

Fascinating and horrible at one time. I like it much!!

The aerial perspectives are always interesting to look at, this one being no exception!

Thanks for all the comments and the feature.

This was shot from the observation deck at the Empire State Building...
