great capture, there is a big story behind those two people, i am shure....i love the heavy stonework in front as well as the small part with the two guys...well done...Ro
The man on the left side is either: a) Damien = Omen; or b) angel to save him, or even he may be a priest. Such stories can go for hours and hours ... Great fodder for a mind that likes to work inventing stories without end ... Thanks, dear Ray. Yours SAM
Love how this opens all kinds of narrative. The grimy industrial/urban texture of the architecture that is almost obscuring (Literal and metaphoric interpretations allowed.)the human story also colours that story. Awesome "people watching" shot. Did you have plenty of that architecture frame that you could have moved that central strip to a different point of balance in the image? I think the power of the human part might be lifted by off centred positioning, if that's possible. Centred subjects tend to lock the eye's movement, off centred subjects tend to invite the eye to roam the image, creating a greater sense of space and dynamism. Of course, maybe that's not the impact you were after! This is a great shot and I'm recommending it to the Art Council. Mikel.
