View from a pedestrian footbridge down to a bus stop and a tram stop. There was more stuff to the top left but it was distracting so I just cleaned it up.

The "cleanup" made for a fantastic composition and contrast.

Nice composition. Good colors and (as stated before) good contrast.

I love the light you have here, it's warm and very effective and a nice composition with the dark areas book ending the scene.

Love the negative space framing the shot.

Thanks, it was more buildings in shadow and some sky peeking through a gap

Good point, the lack of people reinforces that

Outstanding shot! A very film-like quality to it.

Great picture. The fact that part of this picture is black (in shadows) adds to the dramatic tension, I think.

Great composition and great light.
Can't help it but the building with it's worn out facade and the air conditioning would nicely fit in a movie set for Blade Runner or something similar in my opinion. Well done.

Wonderful capture... the stark shadow contrast really frames the scene most effectively.

Interesting lighting, it makes the shot looks like a miniature (in my eyes).
