What Red Light? *

Gothersgade/Kgs. Nytorv, Copenhagen, Denmark

When taking this shot, I actually looked through the viewfinder,
squatting to get the puddle reflections. No croping in post.
The non 2:3 aspect ratio is a result of combining two images
to get both the walking woman on the left and the edge of
the building on the right in one and the same frame.

Canon EOS 20D ,Canon EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6
1/800s f/8.0 at 55.0mm iso400 full exif

Now this is nice.I like the depth that the wet street in the foreground gives to the pic.
When I can feel something of the scene then I know the photo has done it's job and delivered.
well done.

Olaf?!!! I didn't realize this was an Olaf! I was admiring the way you got the heads in the puddle - you know how I LOVE shooting puddles. I love the dark exposure and the colors of the buildings vs the sky. The wetness of the street. Excellent composition. Very classic. Kudos to you. You're developing quite nicely! (I'd say pardon the pun, but it was digi not film! LOL!). Applause ~ Lonnit
