Thanks! Happy New Year.

Wonderfully intriguing street scene. Visually very successful composition of round shapes and straight lines.The way you've treated light and color creates a beautiful atmosphere.

These cones were seen at my place in France in 2006 before they left for Japan.

 

 

Laurent, thanks for revisiting and writing an extensive comment about this picture. I appreciate your thoughts very much. Indeed this series was taken in a small industrial town of the north of France that has badly suffered from the successive recessions over the years. It had been rebuilt after WWII by a famous French architect and was then a symbol of the prosperity that came with the best thirty years after the war. It is now rather sad to see what has become of the place. I'm glad you appreciate my efforts at both graphism and telling a story.

 

I understand and appreciate that other people may have different taste or different views about a subject, yet Mr Joseph doesn't seem to have been wanting to develop his thinking any further about this pic.

 

Thanks again Laurent.

Thanks for the nice words. Very much appreciated.

 

Happy New Year!

Thanks. I'm glad you like these new posts. Markku, as you guessed, this is Berlin. I wish you a Happy and prosperous year. Thanks to you both for the great friendship.

Laurent, thanks. A great concert. I'm glad you like it. I wish I had had one of those new cameras that are so good at high ISO performance!

Thanks. I truly appreciate your visits and I'm glad you like this one. I wish you all the best for 2010. Happy New Year.

This one will be my new all-time fav by you. What a picture !

Vierville//St Laurent (Omaha Beach). A few minutes before the shot was taken, it was really sunny there. Thanks for visiting, Frank.

Great painterly mood and creative treatment, Amal. A beautiful image.

Beautiful abstract shape and colour patterns, Amal. Congratulations.
