red and green Photo

Photographer’s Note

I went for a walk to Port Glasgow (and to see the Newark Castle). I got a bit lost, and found this on the road.

As you probably can notice, I have turned all except windows and trash bins(and footway too), to B&W.

Ii hope the composition works well,
especially with nice reflections on the paving thanks to the rain.

What a fine picture! The clarity, color and common subject combine to make this rather interesting! Congrats!

Hello Adam!

This looks like one of those traditional hand-made carpets with several layers of totally different patterns and colours. It's interesting how this to very different colours go well together. I can only imagine how dull the photo would have looked like if the hard up on the right was standing normally.

All the best
Adrian

Love the colors, Adam—as well as the reflections on the ground (from a recent rain?).

Would be nice to have a note here.

Hi Adam,
Just love the choice of the subject !!! Excellent picture, with a strong graphism and minimalism, a pic on the one we could imagine numbers of feelings, opinions... Great colors too. I just think I would have cropped upper and lower part to concentrate on the colourful elements and enhance the graphism of the composition.

I love these compositions and I like a lot this one.
Some normal objects which, well placed, become part of a nice compositions with colors well placed in the frame, and the subject itself is no longer important.
Very good use of the saturation.
Regards Stefano

Good graphical photo with great colours. I think it might be even better if the road is cropped away.
