Great shot Ursula, congrats on this almost top 10 finish. I love the use of the high-key snow as negative space. Excellent composition and design.

Wow--what great tones. Rose toning? Is that Waldo on the terrace? Looks like we ended up being neighbors on this one, LOL. One thing I noticed on this but didn't have time to comment: a slight perspective correction would have made the lines straighter. Something to think about if you are shooting for the architecture challenge--though I am sure you know more about that than me anyway!

Edit: Oops--I realize you could not adjust perspective here for the open challenge!

I like this! But you might consider cropping the left; at least the arms, but perhaps even enough so the moving stairs perspective exits on the left of the photo (just to the right of the far ceiling lanps.

Funny juxtaposition! Nice tones. I am not sure what to make of their expressions. Might have been fun to stay there and sample some others coming off the ride.

The Pratice Issue

Nice! A metronome was a perfect idea, and adding the person playing was a good touch so it's not a simple still life. In fact, I thought I wrote that comment during the challenge, but I see it didn't take!

I should add that I thought about shooting a metronome as well, except ours is electronic!

Is that you playing?
