Oh, what a fabulous compo : I can picture you waiting for the ideal passing-by and fishing this couple by chance - with the poster of the play and above all this frame in the frame, it's a real piece of art that makes my day ! Bravissimo per il talento !

Great angle on this one with the unsuspecting subjects, like how you have silhouetted the railings but managed to keep the details in the peoples faces

nice angle - graphic view. it's like a window on the outside life
9 Apr 2009 10:50am

Really interesting perspective in this shot! Beautiful street captured! Great work!

Ah, I'd take issue with the quote - it isn't a terribly helpful generalisation in the 21st century! But I sense you're already addressing that in your picture, which I love, particularly the silhouettes. :-)

Outstanding capture. Wonderful perspective.

...or....a man thinks with his head and a woman thinks with her heart. A phrase used years ago to speak out against war and then followed up by the statement, "If women were in charge, there would be fewer wars"...not saying I agree with any of this...lol...you just triggered memories with your pics and words.

@sherri: Oh I know...all rather absurd if you ask me. For me it's humourous because of the ridiculousness :)
This is a great perspective. Nice work.
I have to agree with Ian about the quote...I think Johns Gray's generalization is a terribly shallow view of how men and women define themselves.

@Laurie: Thanks Laurie. Oh I agree...I do not share his views...in fact I find the whole thing rather ridiculous because regardless of gender, people are people. Period.
I like how this so perfectly sews itself into your page . . and the angle is so effective in creating the moment.

i like it all - the angle and the powerful graphic element.
9 Apr 2009 2:41pm
I don't know where you find such wonderful quotes. Love how you've paired it with the image. Excellent!
9 Apr 2009 2:44pm
perfect title and perfect image for the title! good eye!
9 Apr 2009 2:51pm
100% perfect shot... Love how you've caught it. Look more like a spy shot. :-)
9 Apr 2009 2:55pm
interesting angle and framing
love the play with negative and positive space
9 Apr 2009 3:10pm
I like the oblique angle for this shot. The result is a strong graphic image, the couple and the useful sign that helped title this shot. Well done.
9 Apr 2009 3:18pm
I like the combination of your vantage point, the ad on the wall with Venus & Mars quoted on it and the couple. You coming out of the dark . Compare to seeing real gods, the sight of that alien looking couple wearing shades gives a story-telling element. Plato, where artou?
9 Apr 2009 3:21pm

9 Apr 2009 3:33pm

A spectacular view angle, high contrast ! Magnificent image.
10 Apr 2009 3:42am
A great perspective, emerging, taking refuge, hiding in the shadows. Captured perfectly, Sharon
10 Apr 2009 4:47am
