Dave, I really like this shot… but I can’t find the words to describe why… I just like it.
It’s simple and it’s urban… and the B+W looks good. Apologies for not being able to articulate my thoughts a bit better here, maybe it will come to me later and I will be sure and post.
ShutrBugMemberYeah, nice….. Dunno maybe its the reflection of the crossed leg in the poster and the crossed legs of the woman on the corner that makes it work so well. I like it anyway!! :D
Alan RossiterParticipantNice one Dave. I think the scale of the image with the space around the two individuals here helps considerably. The large crossed leg in the poster (?) shrinks the 2 “waiters” and makes them look inferior and worthless in the image – purely in an artistic meaning. It’s a simple shot with little distractions and works very well.

That’s it for me.

ExpresbroParticipantDefinitely well spotted and composed Dave.
If a photo can make you smile and think for a minute then it’s succeeded imo.
This one has.

Not Pete the blokeParticipantI remember seeing a whole collection of street photos taken under large advertisement boards, where the idea was to try to mimic or contrast what was in the Poster – and all without any attempt at staging or posing. This is definitely right up there with the best of them.

ossie13Participantjb7ParticipantI missed this first time around-
saw it but didn’t comment, when I should have-Thanks to nfl for pointing me back-
Nice bit of mirroring going on between the pose of the girl on the corner,
and the plasticized corpse-Well spotted and presented-
