I think this is an excellent capture! Excellent composition, and use of negative space. I have similar shots of shoes on an electric wire, but nothing like this. The crisscrossing wires make this photo. Well done.

Cheers Pio, might have to break out the original and tidy it up a bit more

LOL this brings back something funny that my music director mentioned. that for later. this shot is excellent. A lot of empty space but it is used well along with the shoes and most importantly the wires.

back to music director.....He once told us that the shoes were used to indicate a place where someone could buy drugs and such and that kids saw it and adopted it as a prank. LOL.

Now watch me bite my tongue when I learn from someone on here that that is correct.....

Like this shot. The empty space works for you here I think. Maybe could we see this in a BW conversion?

I've heard that as well, and it's been confirmed by a couple people I know. They still often indicate that.

To the OP: Awesome shot. I love the patterns created by the wires.

I'd like to see this in BW. The composition is great, but the contrast is lacking a bit — little dark. Try using just the red or green channel alone and print that. Could be cool. I'd like to see the sky go white and all the lines and shoes stay dark. Let the graphicness come through. Maybe?
