I was out about in downtown Salt Lake where I came across this scene.
I had my RF and my Holga with me and first thought about doing this with the RF, but it seemed better in the square format. So there is nothing of this scene from the RF.
What do you think?

I like the subject and composition. Well done. I did notice you have the same light leak/flare? in the same spot here as with the three barrel shot. I also liked it. Maybe it's time for a real RF.LOL. No kidding though.....I like it other than the leak.

Hi Brian,

I always have trouble writing a critique for Holga shots. I like this shot, but I'm not sure why. Society on the down escalator? Everyone is passively waiting to reach the bottom; no one is actively walking down. I like the lines, and the exposure is very good. It is successful at creating interest, but I'm just not sure what to think.

Thanks,
Paul
