    Shadow play no.2

    How do you guys feel about the hint of stairs showing in the lower right corner? I didn't felt like messing with cloning but I am wondering if it's an issue or not.

    I like this door image and the shadow of the stairway works fine. Makes me think of the harbor's in Maine.

    because of the shadow shoing the stars, the little bit doesn't bother me. i think if you eliminated the stairs the shadow would have to go to, and thus the photo.

    Seb, I like it as it is. Simple and yet interesting. I was not sure how i felt about the peice of yellow included in the top left corner, but i think it does add and especially that it has it's own shadow underneath adding to the idea here. you have been posting quite alot of nice work that i have not had time to comment on but have been browsing the boards once in a while. Keep up the good work
    please do not edit and repost my photos

    I have to agree with Dylan, the way you have just a hint of the stairs in the image makes it all make sense and helps to draw it all together in my opinion.

    The little bit of stairs don't distract, the shadows are very crisp. I like the contrast of the yellow door on the weathered siding.
