The London Eye 08

Another view of the Eye. Is it too dark?

Any comments or ratings are appreciated!! :-)

very nice..like old photos. i like it.congrats.

Hi Lou Ann, I like the negative space and the way you composed it, I only think that the sky are looking a bit,(I look for the right word), maybe impassable. Try to add some light I think that may help, and maybe crop a little from the left hs. Tonal range of the wheel and lower part is nice.

Thanks, Pnina. I really am not so committed to the sky on this one. In fact, it was the main reason I changed it to B&W, then sepia. The particular blue at the moment wasn't working well. I'll keep playing with it....

Nice clean Sepia composition. That Ferris wheel is really big!

Howard - you'd love it! :-) It's more of a tourist attraction than a ferris wheel - sort of like the Space Needle that Wilson shows to us on a regular basis....

Good composition, and love the tonal quality.

Nice tones, Lou Ann. The sky could be a bit smoother, but it's not that big of a deal to me. This has such strong form, you could play with a lot of different tones and make it work equally as well.

Excellent composition, that great expanse of sky really shows off the wheel. Congrats Lou Ann.

Having been away for quite a while, I (as usual) enjoyed going through all the posts you made, especially this series on the London Eye. I like this composition a lot, giving a view of the surroundings as well. The sepia tones, with the darker upper left corner, gives the overall a bit of a feeling like it's taken from an old promotion film (back in the days the world still used to be b&w).
