Hi Pete - my first thought was the Monthy Python classic intro „and now something completely different" :-) On your version I like better the visibility of the clouds. However I wondered why Emil and you preferred to flip the picture horizontally: I dont really see a difference: what do I miss? |

Hi Chris - many thanks for your thoughts and your crop. I like it as "less is more". Thanks. |

This looks like a great place and you have captured the gravity of the historic site in an exemplary way.
As street photographer I presume that you captured the insect by intention as dynamic and small counterpoint the statue? If this is the case then a smaller crop might be supportive in my view. |

Michael - I had to read the description twice and am still not sure if your notion of "inseperable" was meant ironically or not? My first thought of the picture was that the man was tired of the words of his wife and walked away. The wife cannot walk that fast and hence shouts louder so that he can still hear her words. "my" perception of the situation is better supported by the larger distance of the original picture. Hence the recommendation for changes probably depends on the story that you want to tell. |

Hi Chris, not sure what I like more: the picture or your poetic description :-) I have nothing to add. Personally I would probably have cropped the right side a bit tighter. |

thank you Emil. In a photo course I once learnt to "kill your darlings", i.e. to sort out a picture that doesnt fit the topic of a portfolio, even if it is a favourie picture. Similar applies here to the steamboat - unless mentionned in the title no one would notice except me (because I love steamboats). Hence I fully agree with removing it - the picture benefits. |

Mark, I like it. A cool representation of busy streetlife. My suggestions for improvement would be to use the window bars as strict geometrical separations (i.e. straighten them in LR and then crop the picture so that the distance above/below and left/right is similar). |

Hi Emil, a beautiful picture. The cosy warmth of the light in the houses provides an emotional contrast to wet and cold street. There is not much that I would change, however allow me a thought for another shooting: My eye is drawn to the street lamp, which I find a little a pity as it isnt the most interesting aspect (see prior sentence), hence I wondered if there would have been a position, where the lamp is behind a branch of a tree? just a thought |

Pete - a brilliant image. The eye is immediately drawn to the center. Similarly to Emil I would maybe have used a radial gradient to darken the borders, in particular the hand in the upper left corner. |
