Hi Don.
I'm not sure what you were going for with this one. It seems to lack a point of interest. Overall the image has a kind of painterly quality though, so maybe that is what you are trying to convey?

Take care,
Joe

Thanks Joe. I tried to make a mundane traffic scene into a vase of lowers.

I can see what you were trying for and I like the colors but the image as a whole is lacking a center of interest. I think this is well worth doing but you need to start with an interesting image-perhaps with some colorfully dress people in it........

[Don Schaeffer]

Wait! I'm gonna do something interesting with this.

The one thing for me that hurts this comp is the immediate pole or tree in the fg and the car jammed up near it. Without those two elements, this scene would open up nicely and perhaps bloom like that vase of flowers.

Yeah. I see what you mean. If I crop it out, the whole foreground is lost--it's a quandry.
