Enchanted BC

Comment by redmoon:
conceptually, this is a very intriguing, powerful and striking image. it is also beautifully composed. i still think the only think that lets it down is the flash of green bank across the centre. if this was perhaps greyscaled, or cloned with the flat grey of the footpath, then i think it would appear slightly more balanced, with the people (and their bright splashes of colour) a bit more prominent.

since reading your description as to how it was done, i've tried the same with (even if i say so myself) pretty successful results - turning seemingly dull and lifeless shots into something substantially more gratifying. so thank you for that.

again, this is a spectacular and original and gorgeous shot. 160th out of 189 is truly an injustice, and evidence of the number of deranged twonks that plague the voting here... 13 ones. i mean, honestly. i gave this a ten; and if someone told me i could only have five favourites from the whole site, this would easily be one of them. it's inspiring stuff like this that makes the 25 bucks a year such a bargain.

so keep it up!

It looks like ripples in obsidian. I was considering how it would look at other angles, but I see how this one fits the cropping perfectly.

I get what you’re trying to say here but it just does not do it for me. Unless I knew the subject I would never have guessed this shot represented complexity. Sorry but it just does not have any pizzazz.

I like the point of view of this photo as well as the composition. My only concern is its relation to the theme. The photo composition itself is not complex nor is the subject. I actually consider something routine as being the oposite of something complex. Then again, maybe my life is too simple. However, given the vaqueness of this challenge, I am not scoring based on meeting the challenge.

This is refreshingly different and out of the box. Pity that the lighting is rather dull, some crispness in lighting and some shadows on the street would have made this shot more appealing.

This is a well-taken photo, but I just don't see complexity here...
