Nice shot! Like others have mentioned, I like the graphic look and the sense of nostalgia. I think I'd prefer a different color frame, though.

JP, I think I finally know what I feel is wrong. Good news, it is not the image at all, nor the frame. Bad news, you cannot change much. What disturbs me is the match of the concrete with background color of the page! I saved the image and put it into a white and a black background. This make a real difference to me. I wrongly blamed the frame though I appreciated the color in general.
BTW. I really like your comment on "more people click on the thumbnail". :-)))

Should have said I matte prints in contrasting/complementary colors.

Thanks guys. Frank, I agree about the "frame". At first I did make it larger but that was too much. I make my own mattes & usually double-matte prints in contrasting colors. The reason I did this he was to see if it wuld make more people click on the thumbnail. ;-}

I'll 2nd the 'ice cool blue' motion here! Great catch, deserves to be seen LARGE! There's a nostalgic feel to this one, the bright border actually strengthens that sentiment imo!

This is really an "ice cool blue" entry. I like the picture a lot, but this time I am struggling a bit with the frame. IMHO it either should go without a frame or with a much bigger one.

Very nice polar beer in blue. I like the contrast of the blue against the white wall. Seems to be a bit graphic, but this fits very well. . MCsaba
