Comments/ratings/critiques are welcome. Thank you.

very nice composition and light. good job! -mazza

Its a nice image but the opposing signs lead my eyes out of the frame. Have you considered cropping out the DOLLS sign? I think that competes with the interesting details on the right. Just a thought ;)

Thank you for your input.

I really don't find that sign distracting, as in my opinion it is ballanced by the similar side on th eopposite side.

I like a lot this mix of horizontal lines and rectangular buildings and I love these warm colors. Very well composed and well done for the shadows. A very nice "street" shot.

I think that cropping would totally destroy the symmetry of the photograph. The curved power line at the top unifies the composition. I also think the two signs compliment each other rather than compete for attention.

 

I do not quite understand the black border and rounded corners (looks like a slide mount) since this was shot on a digital camera. It looks well exposed and is definitely well composed. Nice work.

 

Dennis, I have been on a rounded corners fad lately... I don't know, I think I like the softer look it gives the subject.

Thank you for the comment on the signs ad the powerlines. I think like you too when it comes to tha :)
