Nicely composed.

It is nicely composed but the subject matter does not hold my interest enough. That is only my opinion.
Cheers Ole

Thank you, John and Ole. I am always grateful for any opinions, Ole. As you will probably have guessed, the simple appeal for me was in the repeating patterns of light and shadow, plus the textures in the stone visible in the larger view.

Cheers.

I find it Interesting that the shadows imply a thinner and less curvaceous cross section to the individual bulusters than the physical ones. It must be the direction of the light.

I like the simple repetition in the image and it works nicely for me despite the predominance of mid greys.

Thank you, David. Yes, the sun was quite low in the sky - it was about an hour and a half before sunset in February.

Cheers.

Lovely light!

[MrB]

Thank you, Joe - yes, "It's all about light".

Cheers.
