It makes a nice abstract image but if I were not told that they were benches I wouldn't of known - really nice shadow effect

Blow it up and hang it!!! It looks like a black and white Mondrian painting.

I like stuff like these...........

This would make an interesting pattern for wallpaper.

I might redo the BW conversion and and some film grain (and remove the trash cans top left) ...

How would you make this better?

That's a compliment, btw.

My only advice is to be very picky about the crop. The bench at the bottom of the photo is wider on the left than on the right. That could be easily fixed in PS. Also make sure the garbage cans are cropped out. Otherwise, a most excellent photo. :mrgreen:

thanks for the kind comments.
Agreed that cropping makes a lot of difference.
So any prefrences between horizontal or vertical frame?
cheers!

The cropped pic is the better of the two --- more saturation/contrast in it and its still capturing the "dizzy" effect without going overboard which, for me, the larger one does...
