I find the shapes and textures of this image tremendously interesting; and I like the detail and texture in the shadowy parts of the tree trunks. It definitely made me stop and look. The only thing I might do differently, would be to crop a little so the main subject body of the image, the two trunks, are not as centered in the frame. Cropping some off the left and bottom might do it for me. What do you think? -
I think I would have struggled against making a "blocky" composition. The angular elements in your image are aligned in a way that my eye sweeps across them to notice the sun and landscape beyond them while still seeing the shapes and rich texture of the interior of this ruined building. I think this image is quite well made. -

The shadowed structures and street with an intruding wedge of light create an incredible frame for the pedestrian in silhouette. Without the human presence, the hard geometric composition wouldn't be half as interesting. Nice work. -

This image has lovely, delicate tonality, and captured a moment of fascinating shadow patterns dancing through the frame. Thanks for sharing it. -
Nicely framed with the rays crossing diagonally, and of different sizes and at different depths for a pleasing textural effect. The blackness of the background and warm tonality and low illumination of the rays work well for me as strong elements in a lovely shot. -
I had this scan of a 35mm negative saved from a few years ago. A little hot in a couple areas, but I like the shadow pattern on the water. What do you think? -

ice glazed stone-diagonal black P1040105-v2

Another icy boulder that pleased my eye so I took a picture. Comments welcome. -
I like the rich grey tones and how details gradually fades away into blackness in the background. -
Good dramatic composition with a strong diagonal line up to the right created with the angles of the dancer's skirt, the sweep of her arms, the tilt of her head. Nice contrast between the dark background and light foreground make for a strong focus on the subject; and the blur of movement around her still face concentrates my attention there. I enjoy your photo. Thanks for posting it.
