Hi Rosemary,
Excellent photo with this perspective and also the contrast of the b&w version, well made, good idea.

HI Rosemary,

This time the election on B&W fits really well. A very good composition leading our view and with all brick strpes till the end, good subjects placement and perfect sharpness.

Very good!

Have a nice day...

Hi Rosemary
Perhaps it's because of the part of Dublin I grew up in, or perhaps because of the movies, but for me the sight of an underpass with people approaching you I'm this very strident manner meant get ready for flight or flight. As there is a sense of motion in the two people closest the lens it gives the appearance of them rushing into the scene. The black and white effect highlights the darkness and potential isolation of this sometime spooky place. Moody image captured well.
Best wishes
Noel

P.S thanks for the link on the light balancing, appreciate the tip!

Hello my dear friend Rosemary Walden
and have a nice time
impressive shot taken in an underpass during
a walk around the city of York
the choice of sepia is the correct
a very high contrasted black and white
regards
Costantino

Hello Rosemary,
It is a very good photo too with excellent perspective. Beautiful contrasts and light management and a good conversion to b&w.
I like it very much. Good work.
Regards
Piotr

Bonjour, chère Rosemary,
L'effet de perspective est parfait pour rendre compte d'un passage sous couvert avec une ligne de démarcation entre cyclistes et piétons ! La lumière est au bout du tunnel !
Amitiés.

Hi Rosemary
It really does look as if it's in need of some attention. Good conversion in mono tones and love the high contrast and the texture but your image looks quite overexposed imho, which doesn't come as a surprise given the very localised brightness of the lights, but then it looked clinical instead of atmospheric. There's probably not much you could do about it at the time, a flash wouldn't have helped and I'm not sure what could be done in software either but I love your approach, sorry if that all sounds a bit negative. Well done, Congrats
Best wishes

Hello Rosemary,

An interesting note and a very fine and graphic photograph to accompany it. Personally, I have no objection to, and welcome, the inclusion of women into the see of the Anglican Church - or any other church, for that matter. I think it all depends upon your own conception of religion and how you perceive God: whether as a loving and caring father who is there to support and help guide you through your life; or as a jealous, intolerant, vindictive and cruel being who eggs you on to carry out despicable crimes against other members of the human race. The former for me - definitely.

All a matter of perspective really - just as you have captured linear perspective so perfectly here in your photograph! The light and contrasts, as well as the tones and textures, are exceptional here as also is your composition. My only (and probably trivial) suggestion is that it might just benefit a tad from about 0.5° counter-clockwise rotation to straighten up the wall on the left and then a quick application of the "transform" tool to "lift" the bottom right corner - that would bring the line between the roadway and the wall snugly right into the bottom right corner as well as levelling the roadway a little: just a thought. Might not work - but this is a fabulous image as it is!

Excellent!

Kind Regards,

John.

Bonjour Rosemary,

J'aime beaucoup le titre qui accompagne cette superbe composition. J'aime l'utilisation du noir et blanc qui apporte du caractère à l'ensemble. J'aime la lumière au fond et l'effet de profondeur.

Amicalement

Serge

Hello Rosemary,
a very attractive picture with an immediate graphic impact and a lot to discover while studying its structure and watching the scene. I like how the shape of the tunnel surrounds the people and all the pesrpectives point at them. There's an intriguing interaction of light and shadow, perceived through alternating grey tones and textures. The "confronation" of the silhouettes with the people entering the tunnel from the other end is casual but also intriguing. Space is well rendered and essential in this scene, the role of the observer is also important. Congratulations and thank you!
All the best, have a great evening,
Ourania

Hello Rosemary,
This photo has generated a lot of interesting discussion. I think that rotation can be done in LR5 - I will check. What I like about the image is the high contrast although I do feel that the over-exposed area is perhaps too much. Anchoring the line in the pavement to the corner could be good. Having said all that (have you noticed by the way that if one person offers some constructive criticism others feel less afraid of doing so too!)I do like the impact of the subject material. Keep them coming Rosemary!
Best wishes, Ann

Hello Rosemary

I like the fact that in a beautiful city like York (Minsters, Shambles and so on), you've found and chosen to present a gritty, "ugly" scene. But of course it's not ugly as a result of the transformational power of the photographic eye...

Regards

Dear Rosemary

I would never have guessed that this was York. It looks like a backstreet in London. Love the grungy, street feel to it. Perfect subject for a B&W, superb perspective, contrast and light play. This is a stunning shot, congratulations.

Hugs, I miss you
Lisa
