Default Shade in the City

A nice place for lunch - if it wasn't so cold. C-Lux.

Azzo,

don't tell me, let me guess - it'd look great in B&W

Thanks, as usual, for the input.

Hey wait a minute, it also looks good in B&W with some play in mid tones, but it's not what i meant.

Azzo,

around town today I took mostly B&W with just the occasional colour shot - I'm pleased that you like this one in colour.

You must think it could do with a different crop?

Yes, you could well be right

I guess I left them in to add some small amount of tension, by their rather strange perspective.

Thanks for taking an interest - I appreciate it.

Default AW: Shade in the City

I agree with Azzo: the buildings in the background, even more so the brighlty lit zone in the leaves distract from what I think was your primary subject: the graphic play of seats, tables and the tree's shadow. Therefore I would crop the whole top of the tree, to 2:3 format, so the view is concentrated on the "place for lunch".

Best regards,
Marcus
