I'm going through the entries, stopping at those images I feel have had the benefit of an unconventional eye and dwelling a little longer to try to see and appreciate what you saw. This is one of those images.
Positives: We see quite a few reflected buildings at DPC and have a master of the genre within out midst ( PennyStreet) but this one made me pause - not because of its superb clarity but for its success in disorientating us. This image would work any way up - I like that. Coloration is great too - a limited palette deployed to good effect. I also really like the implicit (almost mathematical) perspective whereby the lines parallel to the frame at the top of the image become at an angle at the bottom. - it makes me wonder if we could work out our distance to the building...
Critical stuff: Being so focused on such a specific part of the world inevitably limited the amount of information and thus interest we can bring to bear. Though I suspect you have captured most of it, the inherent interest in the scene is nonetheless capped.
Overall: A fine micro-architectual image. |
