I am a perspective wonk, and I really like that you could use the drone to shoot from the elevation midpoint of the building, so there was minimal convergence of the vertical lines. You included the roof of the terminal building. Shooting from the ground, you would not have seen the roof. |

Oh, I don't particularly recommend it. I have not read it, and I think it's a fantasy thriller. |

Some of the ancient theaters, through preservation or restoration, are in such good condition that they are used for modern concerts. And yes, everyone brings cushions. Remember that they are famous for great acoustics. |

Yes, Tom, thanks, I understood you good point. Just choosing which image I prefer. |

Diana and Tom have said it all. I agree with their suggestions. Your image is sharp and interesting. |

I definitely like the all black background. I often prefer that for my own work. |

Couldn't be better, with all the faces showing, and at the peak of the action.
Yes, Diana, they do sometimes end up with bruises and broken bones. I personally avoid dangerous sports. The beginner slope for downhill skiing is about the limit for me. |

Thanks for the comments so far.
I will keep the ruined portion in the frame, because that accurately shows the age and condition of the theater.
Thanks for keeping my wife in the picture.
I found it odd that you all suggested more contrast, but then I figured it out. The intense sun lit up the directly lit areas, but the shadows were lit by the entire blue sky, a significant source of light. I will try increasing contrast. Diana, that is an interesting idea to try a radial filter. Something new to learn. |

I had no idea they were so colorful. I like the color portrait. I am not bothered by the green background, but in the b/w I somehow am distracted by the blurred background. |

I think the tree on the right is both necessary and appropriate. It does the balancing job you hoped for, and that makes the composition very attractive. And successful. But I noticed the people on the ground right away, and the image would be best without them. The image is sooo sharp! And the clouds are perfect. |

This is interesting, and you could go very far with it. I did the origami shot a while back, but that was a finished figure. Photographically, I think your image is more interesting, since it is more abstract compositional. I suggest more than a triptych, maybe a whole series of shots of different views of the same folded item using lighting, cropping, and composition to demonstrate variations on a theme. |

It's a nice shot. Are you deliberately quoting the book title, Three Minutes to Midnight? |

Lovely shot.
Where is it?
Who is the "we" that made the misty morning walk? |

4. Next guess. If the bike is stationary, then it is welded to the service cover and cantilevered. |

Here are my guesses, but I bet I don't have the right answer.
1. The mime's tie is flying upward. If it is just stiffened in that position, then there is no information. But if it is freely flying, then it suggests a descent from a jump--although no other clothing is flapping, so I suspect the tie is just stiffened into that position.
2. Cyclists can fly over the handlebars if they hit the front brakes too hard. Is this a controlled front braking?
3. The mime is descending from a front tire balancing act. |

Interesting image. I have a guess, but do you want to see it here or have it sent to you directly? |

Thanks, Pete, for the information. I agree with everything you said. In particular, I suggest that we photographers go beyond "adhere to local regulations" and extend that to "adhere to local customs" and maybe "adhere to the wishes of others". I think that the Golden Rule, whether in Biblical or Kantian form should apply here: treat others as you would wish to be treated. |

Good shot showing this man in his context.
Seems to me there ought to be a discussion here about shooting people without permission:
If they are in a public place, is it OK, whether or not they agree? Are there different rules in different countries?
What is the PSA recommendation on this? |

Hello Freddie, this is a very innovative image. It's exciting to find symbolism in "found" situations. Here is something I did myself, but not as striking as your shot. I call it "Christ of the Firehoses." |
