Challenge: Street Photography (Advanced Editing V)
Camera: Sony DSC-F828
Location: Main Street; Angola, NY
Date: Feb 17, 2007
Galleries: Snapshot, Candid
Date Uploaded: Feb 18, 2007

Severe weather in western NY has kept most folks indoors with temps in single digits and wind chill below zero. Hard to find a "great" street scene when everyone is warming at the hearth. While other DPC members might find this the norm - its just exhausting for us.

Again, I think a nice idea. This one is clearer and has nice contrast. The composition could be more interesting and I would rotate a bit to straighten the vertical lines of the poles. I love photos that tell a story, and this one does!

Needs a bit of straightening. Its also a bit dark in places. (Such as the dog's face). That asisde I like the simplicity of the shot.

OK, back to the comments, first thing i notice, there is a lean towards the left, only .3deg or so but its there. You have just clipped the clock on the right also. for me there is too much empty space at the top of image and due to it being winter its too blank.

i would have maybe titled the image "quarter past three"
Good effort, keep trying

Great picture... the only comment is that the photo could have been more straight or more tilted...

A very timid shot. If you waited for the man to approach closer, the shot would look deeper and more involving.

Lots of snow there! I think this photo could be improved if the subject(s) were a more prominent part of the composition. Love the clock though! 5
