Civico 18

This is the kind of shot that makes me want to know more, like why the chair is there, and why that chair with its spindly little legs next to the massively solid stones of the wall and street. There is a story here and I'm left to imagine it.

Duke. My Best Friend.

He looks so noble, and I love the expressive eyebrows :-))) Great portrait.

You did a great job with the textures and lighting, and the patterns and shapes draw me into closer examination of what's there. It's not a stereotypically pretty leaf, but it appeals to me nonetheless.

The Mantis

Comment:
He looks rather aristocratic, in a bug-gy sort of way. Nice detail and DOF. I especially like the pattern made by his shadow.

I like the scene and that little patch of sunlight reflecting off the water. It looks more cloudy than foggy to me but the mood is of the light just coming through or fading away ... either way a transition from light to dark.

Wonderful patterns with the light and long shadows overlapping. The light wins!

It's Her Bench During The Winter
by J-Me

Comment:
Good thing she's wearing a heavy coat. She looks a little ... imperious, I think. I like the composition although I think I like it a little better with the bottom cropped tighter. You lose the snow but I like the spot where that cat ends up that way.

The Bench Where Time Stood Still
by hotpasta

Comment:
The exposure works well to draw my eye but then I jump to the hanging thingy and the light in the arches, which is yellow on one side and peachy on the other and has areas of sharp focus. I think I would like this much better in straight black and white and either cropped tighter on top or with a different DOF so the arches weren't competing for my attention.

Lines made by the benches are kind of cool, but I wonder if a different angle might make for a more interesting shot, maybe with more convergence of the lines or some detail on a foreground bench and the lines slowly fading out of focus.

Nice lines to the composition.
