    Glasgow Street Scene

    Minolta Dynax 7, Sigma 28-70mm f2.8 EX DF at 28mm, Ilford Delta 100, f13, 1/8 secs, Orange filter.

    I had to take a photo of a "scene from my local environment" for a course I'm doing so I chose to take a photo of this street in my local neighbourhood in Scotland. This was taken on a frosty winter's day last month around noon - i chose the time because I knew the building would be lit from the side. I wanted to include a moving car in the scene to inject a bit of life into it and also to make the foreground seem less empty - make it more than just a static shot of buildings. I used an orange filter to darken the sky and boost contrast a little. Ideally I wouldn't have clipped off the top of the building and the car would maybe be a bit further forward and not overlap with the parked vehicle behind it.

    Does anyone have any more comments/criticisms? Even if there's nothing specific does this shot "work" for you?
