It looked like the tower block were marching onwards into the park. Which sort of symbolised what the coporate world is doing to the natural one - eating it up, bit by bit.

Your composition is nice, but you have two things competing - the buildings and landscape. I realize it would spoil the point of composition, but perphaps you could use one or the other and rename your pic.

I think this might look better on a day with more sunlight, to add more contrast to the image.

looks rather dark, some curves adjustment might bring out the foreground better.

good statement, photographic rendtition not quite up to it. maybe needs some levels adjustment. mag99

Doesn't seem very well composed. There's a lot of dead sky space you could've used more effectively. Even taking the same shot on a partly cloudy day would've helped a bit.

How sad and true. Like the title. Good picture.

A great capture.

a little out of focused

An unfortunate scene all over the world.

Nice contrast in subject matter, but I think it needs livening up with brightness/contrast, inversion of colours...anything!

The sky is a nice blue, and it is an interesting composition. I think there is too much foreground, and it seems a bit too dark to me. karmat

Nicely framed and good concept. A little flat, though - needs more light and colour.
07/30/2002 05:35:00 AM
its more like landscape for me :(
07/29/2002 10:41:00 PM
And so....where are these people supposed to live?
07/29/2002 09:05:00 PM
A brace or a tripod would have helped.The far buildings are fuzzy.

This is a great idea, but everything is soooo far away. The field is dark, I just realized there are people out there! (they are sooo small) The building in front looks more like an apartment building than a business, but I could be wrong. I started this as a 5, but except for the problems discussed above, it's really pretty good. I will change you up to a 7. Swash

Those appear to be apartments. I don't see that as corporate anything.

I understand the message, but still, I don't see the link to the challenge, sorry.
07/29/2002 05:23:00 AM
good picture!!

It would possibly be more effective with more of the green showing---in contrast to the buildings in the back.
