Effective, simple shot with strong saturation and good detail. The central placement of the two is nicely balanced by the off-centred station name.

hi sabesh

like the shot. i feel like im one of the many people passing by who'd glance by to see whats the curiosity about. i guess, its the subconscious when you see something like this. well presented.

hello Sabesh

This is my visit to your gallery and glancing through it, I cannot help but notice that you have a way of making good observation on details to become your subjects of photography. Refinement of these details and composition will likely make the presentation very powerful.

For example, I am attracted to this bold yellow color and easily identify myself with the DUNDAS street name of Toronto/and the metro station. It reminds me of my days of visiting this metropolitan city, and staying on living room floors of friend's apartment in sleeping bags.

Coming back to your post, I see no harm if your Note can be expanded a little to make it more interesting. The shot can be a commercial ad for DUNDAS or shoes. It may also be interesting if you have a series of shots to see the shoes out the box and their heads or expression slightly different from this one and to find the best pick to post.

I am a bit reluctant to accept the center composition, so I try my hand to do workshop here, what do you think, did I mess up your photo in any way?

The best thing I like is the focus of the word DUNDAS and the fine white strip just immediately over their heads. I am not very good at graphics, but in WS I try to manipulate a little to get/expand some graphical impression out of your POV's original intention here. My 1st time to handle a photo from a full-frame camera! tfs
