[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
These ladies seemed to have nothing better to do in this, my second of a series, photo taken from the top of Roppongi Hills in Tokyo.
It's probably my favourite one actually.

Nice looking scene, Philip
It's a very good placing of people in symetry composition. They were freezed still by the city view in front of them. Solid black window frame keep a view in good composition.

excellent shot! . Very good work! Carme.

What a lovely picture! B/W works great here. The figure of these girls are perfect...Your picture has a mathematical interest...and this is created by the symmetry! Lovely picture...a window to the world.
Congratulation!

Many regards
Rene

good silhouette photo, very well seen... i love the shadows on the floor, perhaps a bit more of it could have been included... nice framing, the square format works well here... can't help but wonder what the colors would be like though... (maybe you could upload it as a ws?)

Hi Philip,
I like this shot of these silhouettes looking out at the view and I think that the black and white has worked well here. The shadows are great and your composition too, which is nice and balanced. Good details on the view outside.
Regards
Wanda

Hello Philip,
Great image. I like the contrast of the dark foreground with the light outside. The window provides a nice window frame.
Great work,
Jeff.

Hello Philip,
There is a wonderful mood in this photo. I love the perfect symmetry, and the silhouettes in black. The actual view of the city is also great, and full of interesting details. Very well-presented shot.

Hi Philip,

I like it .. This wonderful thoughtful symmetry as a foreground for this infinite urban landscape.

take care,

John

Hi Philip,the silhouettes of the ladies against such a scene makes this a strong image.Shot in colour it would not have the same impact.
Knowing nothing about Japan,this building must be very high?
The symmetry is excellent.
TFS, regards Jean.

Hi Philip; this is a special way to show Tokyo. Very well seen and carried out beautifully. Nice shades and silhouettes. The black and white works well for this photo. Ingrid

Very nice photo, these 4 silhouettes contemplating the scenery, each lost in her own dream, not much interaction between them... I like your choice of B&W for this one.
TFS,
Cath.

Hi Philip

Very good composition, you've built it very symmetrically with two girls each side and then broke it with that window divider line and the skyscraper on the left side…
