    Purple

    This is my first post here asking for a critique -- please feel free to be as harsh and honest as you'd like. I'm looking for ways to improve (and so I'm not looking for oohs and aahs and compliments Thanks!!

    I don't know much about anything but I find the sign on the bottom corner and that reflection to be kind of distracting. But I love the pattern and the colors.

    The patterns are definately a neat shot, but I think if you wanted to make this work you need a stronger reflection with more os something or no reflection at all. Nice potential and good eye,

    I think the problem here is that as already stated the sign ia not bold enough and too crammed in the corner and the two parts seem unconnected.

    But otherwise I like the patters and the colours

    Nice transition of colors. I'm with everyone else.....the bottom right corner distracts.

    Re: Purple

    I agree. The pattern and the colors definately hold my interest but the grafitti in the lower right corner doesn't belong there. I would either crop the grafitti so the shot is just an abstract or make it more proeminent by centering it more in the frame.

    regards
