Coconut Grove wall

This was part of an alley way in Coconut Grove, Florida. The

shadows are from the electrical wires in the Alley.

Nice striking light has brought out lovely textures, Michael. The four distinct panels made me think of looking at a window.

Well observed, Michael and original , too. I may

have cropped the lower half of the lower two quarters , rather than having the 4 even fields. Well done , nevertheless. BTW, I can't fathom

some of the ratings, there seems to be an agenda

somewhere...

I like your idea. Maybe I would have tryed to make it in an asymmetric way. Perhaps I would have played with either the red-and-white contrast or with the smooth-and-rough one in monochrome, so one "point" would be stronger than two. But it can be a question of personal taste.

 

 

 

A propos tastes.

 

Most of your first raters have astonishingly similar tastes. I checked some of them, and found that e.g. Jason Bounia, G Cliff, A Eagle, Tom Mailman, Gordon Strong all are fresh members, have not posted any photo, rated practically the same amount of photos (453-458 at the moment when I cheked it a couple of minutes ago), their everage of ratings were practically the same (3,34 - 3,49) and their ratings went to THE SAME PHOTOS. As I checked the first dozens of their most highly rated photos, I did NOT FIND A SINGLE DIFFERENCE. Strange coincidence.

lovely composition...7/7

Great shot. I have one very similar in my gallery.

hm, simple and very good :)

nice texture

Your picture shows that photographing demands a good feel for details.
