Michael. I love shots of street art and you've captured  great one here. I'm usually over pedantic about perspective but in this case  what I might call distortion really adds to the image. Well caught. Rgds. Rick

Aileen : Great Image and love the colors. Is it too tight  ~ Probably ~ it may be better if more of the building was shown to give more context to the image and if the perspective was corrected. That said however its talking about an architectural shot which may not be what you intended ~ if it shows what you intended it to show then its fine. Rgds. Rick

Joao : Great Image with a very effective sky. Great as it is but I'd like to see it with the perspective corrected if possible an perhaps cropped to remove the cars on the right. None the less a great image. Rgds. Rick

Frederick ~ Lovely Image with a great sense of depth and great detail in the subject. Can't help thinking though that this may be better cropped in tighter from the Left and Right, almost to a  1 x1 Format. None the less a lovely image. Rgds. Rick

Wonderfully intriguing image Pierre, Well Done. Rgds. Rick

Nicely processed image Tony. The composition is great and the "glow" adds a lot to this. Rgds. Rick

Ken, Wobby, Holger, Pierre, Jorge : Thank you all for your visits and Kind Comments, Rgds, Rick

Ken, Bela, Michael, Alf & Pierre : Thank you for your visits and comments , Very Much Appreciated. Rgds. Rick

Pierre. Where I live is often depicted historically as a dull, gloomy and smoky place where sunlight is often lacking, some of that carries through to the images ~ Its one of the reasons I chose to do most of the images in the images in the " Along the Tow path " series in mono as it shows the now decaying Industrial heritage along the canal in that light.

Whimisical fancy on the part of the builder or Bricklayers apprentice

test piece ? Comment Appreciated

Nice shot, Ken. I like the textures in this, puts it back in time. Rgds. Rick

Thanks for taking the time to put together a constructive comment Leslie. Just for info the original image is  rather bland documentary image. The effect is created , not by further manipulation of that image, but by the overlay of various Textures, and in doing that, the use of  the blend modes is important. The halos were a result of the overlays but I liked the end result so I continued with it. Rgds. Rick

Certainly intriguing Tony , I keep coming back to this trying to imagine the view from the " other side of the image ". In short it makes you look. Rgds. Rick

Nice Capture, Pierre. the colors on the wall are intriguing as Michail notes, and the postures and positions of the people add to the dynamics of this. Rgds. Rick
