I love how it pulls the viewer in to follow the lines. Great B&W, with wonderful tones and textures. :) #6190350

Brett, Jennifer, Tiia, Dominick and Mary, that you so much for your comments! I really appreciate them! :) #6192043

M.Christine Duncan July 17, 2008

Deja vu or have I seen this before, lol!? At any rate, your mastery of line and perspective are always at work, love how the eye follows that curve! #6192474

Christina N. Seuser July 17, 2008

LOL. Thanks Christine! I have another shot up of the opposite side of pathway that was a full top to bottom view :) #6192553

I really like how you've displayed the very active patterning of the columns along the nice and smooth pathway. Interesting contrast in textures and play on surfaces and forms. And, oh yes, the B/W and the ever-so-slight grain is just perfect!! #6192857

Lonnie M. Scott July 18, 2008

Mirror image??? I look at them all ya know Christina. And I really like this one as well. #6195288

Christina N. Seuser July 18, 2008

Steve, thank you so much for you in-depth positive feedback, I appreciate it very much! I'm glad you noticed the little bit of grain, I thought it would help bring out the textural component of the shot a bit more :)

Lonnie, lol. I would hate to discriminate between the right or left side, I thought I would give both a chance ;) I took a few shots of this area, picked one top to bottom and one bottom shot, glad you like them both! :) #6195732

Great patterns and the composition is well done. Good exposure. There is a lot for the eye to absorb here. Good job. #6990553
