    Re: Lunchtime Refuge

    It has a 'secret hideaway in the middle of all this modern stuff' feel. Seems like two different worlds.

    You have made it a very dramatic presentation with good tonality and contrast throughout. Nice sky too.

    Re: Lunchtime Refuge

    Excellent work, Tuna. You have composed this very well, and the lighting, sky with clouds, and dof are all adding up to more than the sum of their parts. Perfectly exposed. Well done

    Very nice shot, kinda cold, lonely and mysterious feel to it.

    More great 'other world' / 'two worlds' stuff from you Tuna. And what a lunchbox as well. I think it could stand up to a crop from the bottom up to the bases of the trees as in this case it does not need the walkways in the foreground. Fantastic shot.

    Excellent work! I love the dramatic presentation as others have already mentioned and the two main trees in the center are magical. You even manage to make the main building in the background interesting (perhaps due to the strong contrast betwen it and the rest of the scene) while I would usually find this kind of 70's architecture to be very boring.

    What a great contrast for the shot. Definately the line between picnis and relaxtion is close to the working and industrial world. Great shot,
