Hi Petal, I'm afraid the "grain" wasn't really my intention, but I shot in JPEG and... that's noise, although here it didn't bother me as much as usual. I liked Andrzej's version too, I'm learning new things every day, and it's great to get feedback :) Ina

Great blueish/green abstract!!! Wonderful lines, reflections and grainy feel, good composition... well done!! BTW I really like what Andrzej did with/for this image... love the diagonal that 'appears'... would give it a serious 'go'... ;-D

Hi Ina! Very cool stuff ... like how you cropped/composed this one with the text in the upper right corner; the lamp in the lower right adds a cute finishing touch ... awesome reflections, all in all a great abstract! *hugs*

Thanks Andre for your comment, it's interesting to see what two different people can do with the same image. I kept the light post & the noise to preserve the details, whereas Andrzej was perfecting the abstract aspect. Sometimes when you see a place you have a mindset as to how it looked to you at that time, and that can push the final image toward the image stored in your memory, whereas an outsider sees the image for what it is, and thus I think - as you said - both have merits :) Ina

Thanks again Winfried, I'm alternating some realistic pictures with abstracts, I'm not 100% abstract yet :) Cheers, Ina

Hi Ina, I'm sort of torn between the two (Andrzej's version and yours) I'm going to sit on the fence and say they both have merits. Some might say that the light standard down at the bottom doesn't quite fit the scene and others might say that the light standard is a refreshing, contrasting break from the stark, severe look of the modern glass. Both work! Andre

Hey Andrzej, that's very nice of you to re-work this one! I like the converging perspective, I never thought of that. It looks good without the noise too, I sometimes decide not to touch the noise because I lose details. In this case I left the noise, but it works much nicer without it. It's smooth. You did a great job, Andrzej! Thanks (;-) and Cheers!

Ina, I like all the geometric details in the forms you picked in this frame but I would do some level of perspective alteration and try right angled structure or jump to very converging perspective view. At this point likely only first option may work unless you have cropped the picture with a lot of useful margins to transpose, hey but even within the shot area you have room for play. See my try, forget the noise and jpg's artifacts there from playing with low res jpeg. Frankly my first choice here would be to square it well but I know guys that for the scene like that they would do strongly converging perspective in first place using wide angle lens and maybe adding more to that in PS. Cheers Ina, I liked to say something because I respect your job here. NJ

Thanks very much Paolo, I didn't think "College" meant anything to anybody other than those who live here - it's the name of the street, and so the bus stop :) Have a great weekend, Ina
