Nice shot! I like the angle and all the various colors.

The two-point perspective here is the sort of thing you see almost exclusively in line drawings. It's really interesting to see such a composition imported into photography.

Originally posted by justin_hewlett: Looks good, but I'm not too fond of the black asphalt in front. It occupies a significant portion of the composition and is very distracting and pulls my eye away from the rest of the scene. It doesn't seem to add anything, so I'd be interested in why you chose to include it. If there was some detail in the foreground then maybe I would be ok with it.

I like the asphalt, it's what makes it unique in my mind. It makes it feel like like the rest of the picture is just painted on two walls coming into a corner. It's messing with my mind. I do wonder if it would have been better with something minor there though, even just a few errant pebbles.

You're weird in the best sense possible. I really like this image. The geometric shapes play with each other, mirroring how the color tones work off each other. The angles are very very arresting.

Comment by ubique:
Bear, I am reminded of the winter marsh cabin. Same elegance through understatement. But this one is even better because the cabins form a gentle parody of a suburban street. The cheerful uniformity, the hint of anthropomorphism hidden in the facades, and the immaculately groomed "grounds", completes the illusion of an idealised suburbia. All of this prepares the restless viewer to sooner or later begin to wonder about the rock at front right. The only significant organic form in sight ... its presence must speak of a quiet non-conformist residing at Number 1. As for the big chevron of fresh asphalt, I don't know what it might mean, but I've tried to visualise the scene without it, and my conclusion is that I'm glad that it's there. It establishes a theatrical feel that I like. The light is sublime, naturally. I'm guessing this is the old Nikon ... it has a whiff of that lens.

Instant favorite! Do you have any more in that best of 2005 that I need to know about?

I'll start. Only 11 pm here. This shot says "angles" to me. This theme is contrasted by the very textured rock/pebbles in the fore left and right. As with all of your shots, lighting is great. I'm guessing it wouldnt have the wide appeal to garner a high vote(6.5 +) here on DPC but thats just my opinion. Maybe clone the wire in the BG left???
