I agree with Dulcie. This is mystery image. Nice perspective and light.

It does have this neat mystery feel to it, but why going 'backwards' indeed with the old 'kodak' style?

@Lorraine: Thanks Lorraine! No, backward because of the reflection :)

I like the sharp teeth-like roof reflecting but I go ahead, always ahead and my silence should better follow me, yep :))

The gaze of the spy on the red letter box. So this is what inspires me this picture. So many stories through your work. BRAVO!

Like seeing the light at the end of the tunnel ;)
The 'deeper' you look the more details we see.
Nice!

Gosh, what a great picture, Sharon! I like this perspective that makes me want to move immediately and stay at the same moment, because there's so much to discover. Your light, your processing is simply mind blowing. An outstanding composition! All the best & safe travels, Fritsch.

The silence disturbs the glance....
Pleasure to read the words of the French poet Jean Cocteau !

I like this image and especially with the title! The setup gives great perspective and you can see the reflections of light on the stone - Great Work!

I like everything here...the composition, color, reflection, tonal range! The grainy feel and blown out highlights make this look like its a frame blown up from a movie clip:) Lovely!

That is cool. It's the kind of shot I avoid with the harsh contrasts yet you pull it off beautifully. I like those nice reflections.
