I like this empty scene Roberto. Somehow, the bicycle is a good substitute for a real person as it makes me dream about the person who rides it. I love empty streets as they usually carve a special mood in my mind. Your toning also helps enhancing the special character of the scene and the square format is very effective here to balance the compo. Great light in the cobblestone pavement. I like it!

Hi, Roberto.
I like this place, this scene and this mood...
I'm just wondering if you did not sharpened a little too much (lamp ;))).
Best wishes. Grazyna.

Bonjour Roberto,
Voici le genre d'image qui me posait des tas de problèmes quand j'utilisais encore mon labo N&B ! C'est excellent, et je vous félicite pour ce travail. Bravo.

A nice and well composed picture of this beautiful towncentre of Brugge. The velo provides a subject to the frame, and plays a good job, altough I'd place it more in the foreground (and on the left part) of the pix.
But still very nice,
Nico.

Hi Roberto,

Love the mood here. I took a picture at this same place, but the result is quite different. The B&W treatment you gave is very nice, color tones is great. Nice contrasts, for me they're more them fine. Sensible composition, the solitary bike on this nice narrow alleyway.

Regards,

Flavia

Hi Roberto
I like this sepia toning here, the slight grainy effect and that tone makes it look like an old picture, probably also the effect you looked for.
It is difficult not to get the overexposed lamp when the sunlight is at the other end, but have you tried to adjust it in curves? sometimes you can get some pretty decent results that way.
Regards
Harry

Hi Roberto,
I really like this scene. The empty old alley with nothing but a bicycle, an old lamp and many doors. I like the fact that we can't see around the corner, it let's our imaginations do the rest. Very nice composition and great choice for B&W!
Well done!
Regards,
Costa.

It's a nice PP for this picture and this title... I'm remember in 1950...
