Bad Times For The Business Photo

Photographer’s Note

"Bad Times For The Business"

The day when I visit Rijeka I felt that this is not most attractive and affable city in Croatia. I hope my opinion is wrong. May be I expect much more from Rijeka.

I hope You like my photo.

Hello Philip,
THe low point of view associated to the perfect symetry are giving a wonderful image. The b&w processing is stunning and gives a lot of material on the cloudy sky.
Great work!
Have a nice day,
Best regards, Christian

Hello Philip,
The black and white treatment really suits this composition. I like the low point of view which makes good use of the wooden decking as lead lines as the eyes move through the parasols down the street beyond. A very good range of tones and fine clarity. Good photo work.

Hi philip
Lovely B/W capture to match the mood of the title and the moody day from Rijeka. I like the wooden floor that creates nice perspective and the shades of gray, very well manipulated

Hello Philip.
This low pov is key here to get this feeling of wideness that your photo shows.
Also the fact that the place is empty makes it look like a scenic arrangement just waiting for the actors to come.
The B&W conversion is great.
Cheers.

Hi Philip, Your image presents well your thoughts regarding the city. I like the choise of B&W and the emphasis on the clouds to give an impression of unwelcoming cold. Hopefully it is more pleasant when the sun is out, otherwise one has to feel for the inhabitants. cheers, Steve

Wow very nice and interesting work I like it, you love landscape, mountais, waterfalls all this kind of nature and I like it, you know perfect how to do it and this is wonderful.

I choose this because I think you made and exelent work here, the sky is so drmatic, the B&W gives it more beauty and the rest of the buidings and the umbrellas makes the beauty.

Thank you so much for sharing
