Last minute decision to enter this. Let's see what happens...

POST: This is a river walk along the Allegheny River in Pittsburgh; I was high above on the Fort Duquesne Bridge.

I had been shooting so much street stuff in October, I truly didn't have anything I thought worthy of putting in a free study (street shots never do well in free studies, and besides, I posted all the good stuff in the side challenge). So I went out on the 31st with my eye in other places. After work, trick-or-treating with the kids consumed most of the evening, and I was truly prepping this and another (different) shot at ten to midnight. I went with this not expecting much. I was in the 6.4's on day one and the score went down gradually.

Still, a Post Luminous nominee, a high commenter average, and great feedback all around make me pretty happy. Thanks!

I thought this might have been Nixter. I think this means you've got the hang of street stuff. Awesome commenter average - you really reached a contingent of the voters very well!

PostLuminous Award Nominee!
This is just way cool. Disorienting abstraction, reorienting to unique perspective, luminous, textured, nuanced

Fabulous perspective!! The person's detail is all in the shadow, which is very cool.

OOh, now this is a neat perspective. I really have to look at it so figure out what I am seeing and from what angle. Extra Cheeto's for creativity.
