Color would not have done this shot justice. Even without the (very important) lone figure, the photo "moves" with dynamic tension between all of the straight and curved lines--all drawing the eye to the distant focal point. Wouldn't be surprised if this shot wins a major award.

I love it!
Crazy processing on this one. But well done - no halos. I know you hate that and so do I!

Posted by vpv (Pavel) at August 9, 2011 06:20 PMGorgeous! I love the tonality of this image.

Posted by Nelson at August 10, 2011 11:53 AMAbbey Road was what struck me about this picture first, too! Fantastic composition, the lines and curves and tonality, simply gorgeous.
