A lonely helmet found nowhere near its owner. Still don't know which composition I prefer...

I'm curious about the how. Is that helmet a toy put on a painting?

I like the first one better. The green in both lower corners and the yellow in the upper right seem to guide the eye to the darker area and the helmet subtly stands out. That seems to be a paradoxical description, but it is the best way I can describe my visualizing the photo. Good eye and well composed, plus the colors are quite appropriately contrasting.

Thank you Chas!

I like the double green as well!

No toy or painting. It is a motorcycle helmet, on and old weathered yellow wall.

Look up Hoi An, Vietnam. Basically the entire town is painted yellow.

I like the first one, just based on the color.
