Somewhere in old Bilbao

Thank you for your comments and critiques!

Interesting the way you presented this, Gunnar -- the shooting angle & deliberate tilt allows the viewer to approach the scene from an unusual perspective. In addition, the extreme contrast provides an interesting B&W overall balance to the photo (with the darker areas serving as a solid 'anchor point'). Instead of looking at this as an atmospheric ( and perhaps more typical) 'laundry in narrow street setting', I tend to look at this more as two-dimensional or graphic in approach -- the high contrasts conjure up different shapes, lines & angles here, and make for an unusual and esthetic overall result.

Marjolein, thanks a lot! A comment from you is always a honour to me.

Well done!

Take care,

Mário

Dizzying; it took me a moment or two to arrive at a perspective that left me right side up. The high contrst makes me feel like I'm trapped in a geometrically complex, cartoon world.

Very very unusual presentation, Gunnar...and for that it hold much attention...my best
