This is one of my 10s - I like it very much. Furthermore I think it enriches the DPC collective portfolio. Put simply, I wish we saw more stuff like this. Let me tell you why it pushes all the right buttons for me:
1. Great, bold composition - I like how you've kept the wall on the right. I wouldn't have kept it. You were absolutely right to do so.
2. I like how this image has a great sense of depth - the textured floor and the repeating columns helps a good deal in that regard.
3. The leg of course is wonderful, it has such casualness
4. All of the above offer a sense of authenticity that I enjoy very much.
Overall, this image is marvellously uncomplicated - we get the scene that was there - it has an unembellished feel about it, furthermore - just having a glimpse of the characters in the scene offers much additional interest. Most of all though, for me, it's the way the image feels structured - it's like the structure, the form of the building has been borrowed by the photograph - almost like it's built from the building itself. Does that make sense?
