1. Oh the red in the second one! It's the other place the sun hits and it is so vibrant.
Nice movement energy with the walking woman and man.

On the first one, I'd like to crop it differently just for the heck of it, do you mind?

By the way, Asheville is pretty flooded, does it affect you? My son sent me a little video of the French Broad River jumping the river bed, pretty bad.
Ida wreaked some havoc here as well. The winds whipped off all the last leaves and we are water logged.

I am not satisfied with it, and will be back there to take more. I did not have the lens with me I wanted, i think

3. What do you think?


I am in a phase of messing with almost squares, and paying attention to diagonals and the negative spaces.
As I look at it it's still not quite right, I should add a little on the right, but I like the triangles this makes and the new way it balances.

I really like the photo and that it's black and white. If you take more, I hope you post your favorites.

5. Now you went inte the territory of major dare.
It took me a while to figure out why I was feeling dizzy. You straightened this photo to parallel the top of the wall, and I feel like I'm falling out of the walkway.

That is way cool, WannaJump, I really like it, I would not know what lens could be better, but then, I only have one.
LOL.

:)

It puts me in the frame of how it felt to be inside one of those railroad car size wagons on the Riesenrad in Vienna
