[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
When you get to a fork on the road...take it. This photo was taken in New Bedford once one of the richest cities in the world due to whaling and textiles. It's been in decline for the last 50 years and recently since the marvelous new concept of "global economy" sold to us as economic breakthrough the city looks and feels like this. THANK YOU GUYS.

Very well done.

perfect graphism and perspective
strong composition
congrats

Very strond shot with great composition. This shot is so sure itself that it tells something and you did it i mean... Foggy air at back just give me the feeling going somewhere without knowing. Walking man is the hero of the shot ofcouse, great chance for you he wears white, or if you did it PP work, very clever choice.
Weel done Luis..

Very moody and dramatic shots and very strange colors, I can tell you I regret the whale fishery, no no no but I remenber this ; In the middle of the 19 th century New Bedford fishers went to France to teach to the just reborn french whale hunting companies,how to fish the whales propaly.
