Waiting..... Photo

Photographer’s Note

Weather is terrible, dark and wet. So looking through archives.
I quite liked the tones and shapes in this. Just cars reflected in a supermarket window. It seemd to me that they were all waiting patiently for their owners to be processed through the retail machinery inside.
Maybe spending the time comparing notes on who's got the shiniest alloy wheels or catching up on the latest automotive gossip.
Converted using channels.

Stunning picture! The bending of the car images on the glass borders makes this shot all the more interesting!
Funny note!

Cheers,
René

Hi Dougie, great photo! It´s very simple, very well structured, well seen! Regards, Johannes

Very interesting idea you've had here. Beautifully executed I mus say. The outline of the cars looks so sleak and sharp. Good idea to use b/w here, just brings out the contrasts and lines much better IMO.

Hi, Dougie,
this is such a cool shot. I wasn't sure if I was looking through a window or what until I read your note. I like the straight lines of the window contrasting with the curved lines of the cars. The B&W is just awesome. The contrasts and shadings are perfect. Beautiful job!! Thanks and warm regards,
Shelly

Hi Dougie
A shot high in graphical qualities and I like the gritty black and white feel to it. Nice one.
Best wishes
Mark

Excellent picture of repetitive reflections.
For this composition, I would have prefer less noise, more smooth texture. nevertheless, I like it very much

You have some amazing B&W's. Great crisp contrast. Nice work, not just this photo obviously... this one just stood out for me because of the abstract idea and because you succeeded in creating something stunning from what many would just walk by. Overall a very nice collection on TE. Thanks for sharing your stuff!
