Very efficient composition, and you have treated the water reflections very well. I can smell the city, in a moment I will hear wet sound of wheels from the cars coming towards me too.
But you need to clean up the sky. The grains are eating up the flag and the lamp poles, and the edges of the buildings. That's distracting.

Frankly, I was sick with a stomach flu most of the time I was there and took only a few photos. I like this street scene but didn't have the energy or chance to try to do it better. The Pentax K10D's water proofing did come in handy ... http://homepage.mac.com/ramarren/photo/PAW7/01.htm The contrast range was extreme so I expected noise in sky and shadows at ISO 800 ... In the full resolution version going to a print, it's quite nice with a deep, grainy appeal, and I think it's ok on the small one. The half-rez scaling did a bit of ugliness to it. Anyway, although it's not the only picture I have from the week to post, it's the one that's most appealing to me in a pictorial way right now. I will likely do some more renderings ... there are some rather more 'processed' versions that I am beginning to like. ;-) Comments, critique, tomatoslinging all happily appreciated. enjoy Godfrey -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
