Nice composition but in particular I like the texture of the cement.

No pretendo hablar en nombre de nadie, por supuesto, pero creo que con esta fotografia nos sentimos todos identificamos, por lo tanto enhorabuena por este "homenaje" al fotografo. Enhorabuea. saludos

Holga?

close :-) ... lomo (lca+)

Ahhh. Canon DSLR.

that's the one she's using ... the picture was taken with a Nikon FA though.

Cooool.

I love the strong shapes and the grainy feel to this image, nice work!

A sign in the wilderness.... This is very nice, I might push the contrast/grain and see if it makes it more dramatic. Might be cheating a little, but if it were me, I would try it without the power lines, just to see if the composition holds up..?

I like the picture. The composition, with the lines to give context, is great.

My only question is the topic. I don't have enough elements to begin pondering a story from. It feels more like still life. Very well executed still life.

Good composition, my only dislike is the grain, or grain clusters. Overall it is a nice shot. The cross tied to the telephone pole is very emotive.

nice, simple and powerful, like it

To me, the framing gives it sort of an abstract feel. Like the space station from 2001. It looks really good in the thumbnail. Perhaps if it were completely out of focus?

When I look at the full size picture, my eye doesn't know where to go. The area of sharp detail leads out of frame, as does the curve on the left.

I wrote a critique for this image yesterday which doesn't appear in this list. Anyone know what might have happened?

Hi APBob, haven't seen anything ... strange! feel free to add one again!

Interesting image.

i think i did my critique about this on another place ;)
the coulours, the blur, the framing... to my opinion perfect!
and btw: welcome to vazaar! :)

love the abstract quality the angle adds to this shot... also the contrast in textures...nice

Love the detail in the water, must have been tough to get... it seems a little blurred as well.

Yes, a little faster shutter would have frozen the water a little better. I would also try this as a vertical composition with the sign centered putting the water off center slightly. Might be nice...

I like the horozontal composition...or I would if the entire top of the fountain were included. To me, it would be a nicer image had you used a tripod and made a LONGER exposure (around 1 sec) to give the water more of a flowing look.

I like it a lot the way it is. The crop works very well for me.

I wonder if it might be better with a little less DOF, or focused a little bit further out. The front edge of the fountain has a lot of detail compared to the rest of the non-subject scene elements. Then again, from experience I know that's something I probably wouldn't catch until I got home on my computer, at which point who knows if the shot could be reproduced.

Very nice minimalism. Only thing I wish was that the ball was a bit more sharp...Otherwise, perfect!
