Yes! Excellent detail on the endless DoF, and what a great balance of lighting under that sense for depth and distance! Again a real street!

Though I am a bit puzzled about the upper cut of the treets, they do work as distance markers very well, together with the facades at the left in their strong leading lines! And you have many of them here, and they all take me to that escape point that lies on 0.2 of both width as also height. So you followed not the rule of thirds but still remained in that family of rules - this time it was the rule of fifths. Let's try all others too!

But I see another variation of lines here. To me the mental walk from the front sitting bank, over the second sitting bank, back to the people, it is a zig-zag line that preserves the direction of the leading lines "in the mean". Everything seems to converge towards that target point at under the rule of fifths on the image.

Waiting for the next steps!

Hey Nick, thanks for the thorough comment.

regarding the upper cut (sounds like boxing ;)), I think it was unavoidable. those trees went so high that i found it impossible having them within the canvas.

as for the buildings on the right, i also think of them as contributors to strengthening that lineward progression where the esence of this shot lies.
it would have been great if there were some man cossing the street from the left, but there was none! :)

cheers,
v.

Hi Visar!

First of all.. excuse me for the long delay. The last few weeks had been a great deal of research. Awful and fascinating at the same time!

But now I return, and... what the heck is going on here? We have dozens of comments glorifying the incompetent "dreams" of each and every self-convinced photographically analphabetic nohopers, and there are no more comments for this image? What do they think that this forum is? Some kind of institution for artistic therapy of incapable minds? Every sod around gets a camera, shoots some crap, and becomes the next messiah, and this image has only five comments? What else are we going to see?

OK, I try to handle my pressure down!

Visar, about the trees, I guess that you are completely right. Nothing else to do here - you just have to accept that they will be cut, if they are so tall. And if they are cut anyway, then it will be always "a bit more here and a bit less there".

And about somebody crossing the street.. well, yes if that oerson would be on the near field and with a good contrast to the pavement. But still the number of persons is quite enough to me.

Cheers!

Nick
