Find nothing

A spring message

The car, the bicyclist and the pedestrian

Space no time

Irregular sprectrum

... and we're off

Ready to open up

Heading out for the storm

One of the problems of decoration

Silhouettes across the road

Thanks once more for the nice detailed comment, Gustavo!

There are some problems on the pillar/background as AJ noticed, though.

Cheers!

Oh yes, AJ, indeed! The blue screen of death seems to be already an inseparable element to everyday life. Except of course if you use a Mac that mercilessly removes that fine piece of life quality along with viruses, illogical and inconsistent architecture hidden behind jargon, and the steady need of the Windows-OS for attention when it informes us once again that the mouse pointer has successfully moved. ;-)

Seriously nice, I think that synchronous rotation of the image and the head 90° is the best way to view such images, excpet of course when having a big monitor. To scale them down is inly good for getting a general glance, but not as much for lighting considerations, since all scaling *will* inherently introduce perceptional or also real lighting attenuations. (Something the imaging software companies say only very very quickly in some small print ;-))

But on with your idea, for which I thank you very much. Indeed the pillar has less sharpness as the whole background also does. It is the combined result if the need for a wider aperture and the much stronger light far back, which introduces some overexposure along with the resulting washing out of contours. I guess that less exposure together with a narrower aperture would cure that.

I cropped off a bit of the foreground too (attachment) and it indeed helped to get rid of the less sharp and dark part of it. It's good for bringing out the blue screens more dominant. On the other hand the reference to the distance got a bit weaker. I like both ways, each for the own strengths.

Thanks a lot once again for your in depth going comment!

Cheers!

Nick

P.S.:

The glass was successfully filled with scotch! Do you really want to drink it?

Cropped off some of the bottom after AJ's idea

Es cierto lo que señala AJ, muy logrado y notable el sincronismo de la pantalla digital que aparece claramente sin fantasmas.

Un abrazo!

Muy buena la composición, interesante el detalles de las persona movidas, nuevamente el techo aporta una nota llamativa al igual que la pantalla en primer plano.
Felicitaciones!

Blue screens usually have a much more ominous significance in my mind, as they are synonymous with a computer that has just crashed...

I tend to struggle with portrait oriented images on UF. As I see it, I have two options to view them properly: reduce their size, or rotate them through 90 degrees and turn my computer on its side.

On this occasion I've reduced the size and two things strike me. I find the lack of sharpness in the pillar a little disconcerting, and I would perhaps crop the dark foreground a little. There would then be a nice balance of screens and pillar roughly in thirds locations. They would be offset nicely by the movement of the people.
