    Yoyo?

    Being a big fan of Yoyo, I thought I'd try one like this....

    It's Yoyo on a smaller scale.

    I like the building. That red and black design really looks contemporary. Too bad that tree and telephone lines are in the way. Strange how they threw on that wooden door there.

    I think you should crop the top just above the red and then skew the top of the building level. Someone walking by at the right spot would have been a plus.

    Hexnut,
    I like the idea behind this shot A LOT but there were some things that were "killin' the buzz" for me. I played with this a little and came up w/ this. It may not be much better as I didn't waste too much time on it, and I'm thinking maybe I should have left the bulk of the wall on the left intact, but it's a start. Straightened perspective distortion, removed powerlines and background, replaced with nuetral cloudy sky of about the same distance/ambience, added bushes, stretched out road due to loss from distortion correct. (I don't often fidget with other peoples photos, only when it seems worth keeping, so please don't be offended.)
