somehow this doesn't 'speak' to me
but i liked the contrast between this modern art and the look thru to the older building in the center of this metal donut with teeth.....

I think it has a great look. I liked what Scott said about art on my thread:

Well Dave, I hate to be a spoilsport but you just made your own version of modern art. Well photographed.

Outstanding, my friend. This shot made me smile - what a contrast between one kind of subject "superimposed" on another. You yankees are pretty clever.

Oh, nice pic! Perhaps that contrast between old & new is exactly why the donut was placed there?

Very interesting shot and appropriate treatment of the theme.

christophleipzig · 03-03-2011, 09:18 AM

I love the technic how you shot the picture a lot! Contrast and details - like a graphic.

I would be interested in the aperture - and what you have adjusted in pp - if you want to tell... thank you!

Well, the art dont speak to you, but you just made it speak to me!!! Very cool shot

I like the old vs new in this photo. As for the doughnut it looks to to to tough to eat

Great shot, IMO. And great processing too.
