An interesting composition with many shapes and lines for a seamingly simple presentation. I also like the tones and contrasts of colors. I find the three dots on the wall leading to the right from the dark frame and into the lime rectangle a bit distracting however. Well presented. george

what? Not a self portrait? how does that work when you arein front of a mirror. great light play here Adrian.

the light and colors are very seductive here , i thought it were Alistair 's since he posted similar colors just yesterday ...i like this as it could be part of a cafe wall ...cheers ;-))

I'm quite taken by the subdued lighting, the shape/arrangement of the chairs, the shadows and reflections(?) even.

It's tempting to complain about the o'er exposed bit through the window. But since there is no detail needed/expected there, in reality it balances well with the otherwise subdued nature of the image.

I like this composition and the feeling that the good times, at least for the moment, are over. I think this would be even better in black & white.

Stunning mood!

Thanks George. I saw those little things myself and forgot to deal with them. I was standing to one side Kathy - you can have too much of a good thing! It is, indeed, part of a cafe wall Dee Vee. Cheers. Glad you like the lighting Chris. It was almost dark in there as I pressed the camera to the window, hence the contrast with the lights outside. I tried it in bw Frank but decided I liked the colour better as it seemed to tell us more about the time of day. Thanks for that comment and rating Grant.

I love this composition adrian; and the light is so warm.....ecxellent shot!

Thanks Vaggelis - an interesting spread of ratings on this one.

Well, that's made my night! Wonderful to hear/read your voice again Rob. Very glad you like this one, especially the composition as I think it's one of my more pleasing shots (to me anyway). Great to see you back again, take it easy and stay a while.

this is a very impresssing composition, adrian, at least to me. You decided right to let this in color, IMHO (it´s even monochrome :-)) And this monochrome tone makes a great part. The other part makes the outside interior and their shadows. The whole composition looks very artful (due to the color IMHO) on one side, on the other rather quiet, perhaps hopeless. And in this case I too like the border :-))

Best wishes,

I am also quite fond of this. Just want to mention that the white frame as a repetition of the frame of the mirror contributes a lot to this image.

previous comments covers all i think i will just said that i really like this...

Horst, Klaus and Denis - what a Euro-trio! Thanks for your appreciation.

Great photography Adrian. A simple image presented well. Love the compo and the colours (good choice to present it in colour IMHO). Could use a slight rotation (counterclockwise). Cheers, Jeremy

You're right. How did I miss that. thanks Jeremy.
