I like the perspective and the low angle in this shot. Good choice for black and white. I see you also have McDonalds.

Hi Milos.

Love the B&W you've got here. My take on your photo:
1) Your lines obviously caught my attention. I don't know whether it was planned, but I like how the tracks and the two lines of lights in the street give a sense of crossing each other. I like the effect this creates.

2) Your POV from the ground really creates a great depth and a feeling of a seeing deep into the photograph.

3) You've got a sense of duality in your image that I both like, and would maybe also have liked to see an alternative to. From the bottom part of the image up to where the asphalt ends, you have a very simple photo, and from there on up, where the buildings and lights start, there's a lot more complex aspects to this photo. I like it, but it could also have been interesting to see a similar photo where there were less complex elements included. I think this could have been achieved by leaving out the people, and possibly by doing some cropping. In this photo, should you have done some cropping, I would suggest cropping out from just after the golden arches of McDonald's. Another possibility could be to take a slightly different POV leaving out part of the right side. Still though, I like it a lot the way it is.

4) The reflecting light in the tracks look very nice. I like this effect.

5) The only grudge I've got in terms of this photo is that it lacks some sharpness in the buildings deep into the photo. This creates a bit of a blurry effect. With a higer aperture value (like F8) you might get around this problem. Of course, being a night shot, there are limits to what you can make happen, and the various lights doesn't make it easier.

Hope you'll get something out my thoughts, and TFS :)

pozdrav milose!
dobra nocna, ali mislim da je kompozicija malo zbrkana, pogled sara svuda po fotki, ali nista konkretno.
probaj ju odrezati s desne strane do ovog svjetla iza znaka, pa malo po poravnaj horizontali i dobit ces sasvim drugi pogled na fotku.
naravno to je moje videnje tvoje fotke.
probat cu to napravit pa ti ju posaljem na mail, da vidis na sto sam mislio, nadam se da ce ti se dopasti.
uh! sto sam se raspisao :-)), valjda se neces ljutiti?
pozdrav!
zoran

do sutra

Hi Milos,

Yes, seeing the extraordinary is what makes a great image. Such as this one definitely is.

Wonderful moody capture. I love the lines and the choice of B&W was a good one.

Bravo!
