I like how the sign reflects the architecture you chose, pretty neat that you saw that.

That is a pleasent and unexpected miracle.
Have worked on more pictures on the same theme (arches and circles). This one has worked out nicely as an upright panorama:



Hard to see but there is a bird flying over the runner (shows clearly in the large version)

I like the comparison between the pointy sign and the row of arches. I might try cropping at the top and the left - leaving just two arches and losing the line of the builing second story. Pulls the composition together a bit more. The colors and the textue after the rain are lovely.

Your work is becoming instantly recognisable M. Beguin. No bad thing, either. Reflections bottom frame are fabulous, the parallel poses of the swans add balance, just sufficiently disturbed by their not being mirror images of one another, quite. There's an odd effect given by the upper-two-thirds composition, similar to your point of view shot, where the lower part of frame, those reflections, almost seem to belong ot another image entirely.

A radio produceer I know once told me that you should always try to have at least two things going on in anything you produce ... this is just more proof of that, I suppose.


PS. This better had be a JJ photo, after all that :-)

This placing really confuses me - and the score. I suppose I'll just never get the hang of the mass voters opinions here. Congrats on another top shot JJ.

I love how the shape on the sign mimics the shape of the building's arches. Nice range of colors(very balanced!) Good light and a nice frame too. Great job!
