Challenge: Free Study 2007-05 (Advanced Editing V)
Camera: Nikon D70
Lens: Nikon AF-S DX Zoom-Nikkor 18-70mm f/3.5-4.5G IF-ED
Location: nyc
Date: May 20, 2007
Galleries: Urban
Date Uploaded: May 29, 2007

 this picture is partly inspired by chris's
initially, i was thinking about a different composition including the person, but the posture of the shadow looked as if he's waiting for someone and looking at his watch, so i decided on this version.

the processing was quite simple. the light was very beautiful creating these shadows and colours. i did almost basic editing for this.

It looks like a "hopper" painting. Really great!

i like the lighting "tones" on this if that makes sense, but the crop feels a bit too tight for me.

I think it has too much yellow in it and might have looked better in B&W.

I like the story of this. The composition is well done. Nice lighting and exposure for a night shot. I want to know what he's carrying in his satchel. ;~D The wording on the window is a touch distracting. I wonder if you could diminish it a smidge? I like the silver and gold tones with the pops of black.

The title seems a little half-hearted, but the photo is excellent. It has some really nice tones and colors...kind of a metallic thing going on. Very exciting photograph!

The placement of the shadow is the only thing I do not like...
