First off I really like shots of structures---especially at night and especially with elemenets like cars it gives it that city life feel... I really like this shot comp-wise..it looks a smidge washed out (but my monitor had been on the blitz it may just be that)...the only thing that detracts in any shape way or form (for me at least) is that the vertical lines are off by a hair
making it feel a little tilted(and there's a little hole or dot that's cut off by your border)( I know I'm neurotic)...it has a nice glow nd nice feel to it...
"I was not trying to be shocking, or to be a pioneer.
I wasn't trying to change society, or to be ahead of my time.
I didn't think of myself as liberated, and I don't believe that I did anything important.
I was just myself. I didn't know any other way to be, or any other way to live.".
I agree about being washed out, I will have to do something about that.
The lean is tricky, I knew it would garner that sort fo response, but I just like it, it adds to the busy feeling for me for some reason. I just think it fits...
As for the dot, the print doesn't cut it off. This frame crops a few pixels on each side, and I'm too lazy to fix it.
Thanks for taking the time, I always appreciate it. I think I'm gonna toss this one in my portfolio. I did not care for it much at first but it has grown on me since, there's just something right about the way it feels...I can't quite put my finger on it. To me, it just IS Chicago, you know?
I like it Seb.
What Natalie said is about all that needs to be said.
Although, I am not so sure about post though. I like the feeling it gives too.
I like the colors too.
