really enjoy this - four completely different scenes in one image, with the women up on a pedestal.

like a painting

Great shading; the defined cross on the concrete mimics the skater's form in balance; the skaters' shadow seems neglected and has an awkward place in this crop.

Is it a canyon from the air or a scene on another planet's moon, or is it a spawl in the paint on a concrete wall?

Please remove the beveled edge, and a tighter crop on the bottom would be helpful to give the image focus. It's an extraordinary scene

The heavy blanket sky and the colors of the sky, water and the buildings are amazing, really awesome. However, the composition is quite distracting - the small car parkinglot on the left and the rocky edge are starkly undetailed and in plain light.

 

The contrast among the profound atmosphere and the simple urban architecture with its color, and then the drab parking lot edge - you know, the pieces seem so catastrophically opposed in this image. Maybe that makes it a very powerful image, but I think it's accidental. It has the rule of thirds, and the active diagonals, but it's just so strange. There's a lot to learn from this collage.

That's pretty cool. It's like holding a locket of yourself, or putting yourself in a ring of something. Kind of Escher-y, like there's some symbolism from some fantasy story, but you've never read the story. Thanks for this.

The Abercrombie label on your shirt throws the whole Dr. Who thing off. Some kind of wool cloak seems to be in order.

The colors are exciting. The contrast and pointed lighting really give it a sci-fi look. I don't know the building enough to know how much of that is your doing and how much is the architect's.

Thanks for this. The focus is nice - it annunciates that the people are walking away and are forgetting. The man sitting below the "SALE" sign is a double-sided metaphor. His bundled and leaning position against the return vent of the tiring shopping mall says a lot clearly about the time of the place that causes wear on buildings and residents, and just the ambient temperature. Well, I like it and I get a lot out of it.
