    Re: 2 Layers

    I really like the geometry in the photo especially with both people looking sort of at each other if you strech the imagination.

    My only minot nit pic are the two cars which detract just a bit especially if it was blown up large.

    Hi Roger,
    You have shape eyes. I did not notice the cars until you mentioned them. Thanks for the comments,

    I love the eye contact riveting the two layers together. Good eye.

    Nice juxtaposition yoyo. I also like how the giant pillars are nicely leading my eyes very deep in the picture. This shot reminds of another that I saw here but I just can't put my hand on what it was.

    Very nice. This is great composition, very well balanced...my eyes were led all the photo to explore it.
    Everything works in this photo. Great capture.

    Cheers.

    Some great lines here Yoyo and I really like your two figures, the two vehicles do not worry me too much.

    Wonderful image.

    My comment is that I wish you took an image with the person at the right 2 steps before. That way, he is more out in the open.

    Ths shot looks unreal. I think the cars add more tothe shot. Nice show of geometry. How did everything get so in focus? Thanks for sharing....I'll be staring at this one for a while.

    That's a great study of contrasts... of many sorts. Very nice job.
