Highlights on this are just amazing. Very surreal with those reflections on the water too.

Love the toning and the awesome perspective. Glad to see you got there. Hope everything was ok....it's very quiet,no? Great result!

And Yo, Enzo! It is Philly (Philadelphia!) Not NYC! LOL!

Adam! This is outstanding. I am just sorry that my shot prevented you from a ribbon. It was a close race...

Interesting comp! Great p.o.v., neat colors and detail, good subject, 10.

Wonderful shot. Love the lines, contrast, and balance of the image.

It's funny that I seem to go the opposite way with super wides in that I try not to use the distortion...or I try to correct it in camera/pre-pp. I've done it a few times ( here) but it struck me as being gimmicky. Sorta why I ditched the Fisheye. These do work on DPC like a charm. Good Luck.

Very nice. Guessing AP here. Love the tones, lighting, and overall feel of the image. (If not AP, consider that a strong compliment).

dynamic shot - the leading lines and intense contrast really draws us in
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 12/05/2008 08:09:32 PM
like the blue tone, good sharpness.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 12/05/2008 12:19:01 PM
Great angle and perspective. I hate the letterbox thing, I know that's a preference thing, but it seems that there would be more volume, whatever, if it was full frame. The B&W conversion is just stellar, and the contrast is perfect IMNSHO. 8

Great high contrast black and white, but having the reflections cut off makes it look awkward. Same thing with the top right of the bridge being cut off. Idk if this was a result of croping, or a lack of a wider lens. Nonetheless, great composition. 6

a classic shot handled well, but I feel like I've seen it or something like it many times before.

SPectacular tones.

 12/02/2008 12:48:59 PM
I love the rich contrast - nicely done!
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 12/02/2008 10:44:12 AM
Fantastic! I love it!! Composition, color tones, angle and use of wide angle is all good. My first 10 so far.

This has the 'Hotpasta' treatment written all over it! 8

Stunning capture - that icy grey/blue that you achieved here is phenomenal, but the scene itself is equally engaging... -- 10 --
