Reflections on a Tram Photo

Photographer’s Note

Street scene with a mirror reflecting the tram I was riding on my way back from the Basel City Center is one of those photos you take "now" before it disappears as the tram moves on. Its distortions are as photographed and form an interesting contrast to the "no parking on either side of the street" signage.

ISO 400 with a distracting window in the background removed to make a cleaner composition.

Very tight, very nice. After reading your note, I can see the window, especially at the borders. Is there any way to leave the window in but dodge (darken) it?

Hi Lois.

Nice and unusual composition. The various primary colours, the metalic and off white elements and the geometrical "straight angles" constructs make it a busy and interesting picture.

Regards

Rob
