Excellent representation. I'd have liked to see the horizon higher in the frame to eliminate the excess sky.

Nice photo, nice lighting, looks as if it were a little over- sharpened. Still overall good pic. Nice Job!

Too much boring flat space in the foreground. This image begs for better cropping. 3 sjgleah

rule of thirds could probably help this shot

i like this picture alot!

May I ask? Did you sharpen this? If so, just a touch too much. (Look around the edges of the clock tower) Otherwise a fine shot, but I might have been tempted to crop out the bottom and maybe a bit off the top to even it off. Photo 8 City 8 total 8

Nice photo, but way way to heavily optimized. Very obvious jpeg compression artifacts are visible around the peak of the dome and the letting on the brick building. This file is about 25k in size - it can be up to 250k.

It seems obvious that this was taken from a roof. I feel that by zooming in or cropping you could've put us in a place that we would be more curious about and more exciting. I also think that your subject is great and deserves more detail.

I think the texture of the gray sky really adds to this photo. I wish you had a bit less of the foreground roof, but it still works.

a lot of uninteresting foreground. horizon interfering with the tops of buildings. subject shrinks compared to the size and brightness of the 'electric press' chimney.

this is a neat view. sorry the sky was so cloudy for you, a blue sky would've been awesome. black and white would work really well, I think, and give an "older" appearance.

I wish the skies were brighter...bluer. I like the photo but it's not one I'd want to look at a lot...kind of depressing. I'd crop some of the sky out so you could get more detail on the clock tower. 7

I like the sombre mood this evokes...and the feeling of things going on that we can't see....its growing on me!

Nice rooftop shot :) I wish there was some way to punch up the color on this one a little more but the weather was not working with you on this one :( I definitely like the clock tower... I wonder where this is? = 6 - jmsetzler

Its a great photo but it doesn't convey to me city life.
06/24/2002 05:02:00 PM
Some view of these building. Interesting shot...are you on the roof. Fun work. Kee

Seems like the sampling was off (me too). I like the photo - personally I may have cropped it just a bit. Overall nice job.
06/24/2002 12:26:00 PM
nice... : )

Concidering our editting constraints, you did a good job getting texure in the sky. It could have used more, but very hard to do without selection tools. Parts of the church seem to blend with the roof you are on. I don't think the roof (bottom 6th of the shot) belongs in it at all. If you could have moved to the right and forward (without falling to your death) you might have had a better shot. The buildings on the left are a nice contrast to the old.
