went to the beach to shoot the 9" of snow that fell (and was mostly melted the next day), found this instead.



fuji x-t1 and 18-55mm cause it was too cold for my fingers to be switching prime lenses.

Much more interesting Beth. Love the contrasts here and I like these faded old signs.

 

[Julian de'Courcy]

I agree with Pete, interesting . Superb and like the subtle tones. A fine image Beth.

Beth, this image stands head and shoulders above the crowd of graffiti and cracked paintwork images. This is a great find and good on you. Many would have headed straight for the saturation tool and up the colours on the nearest wall. The fact that you didn't has a lot to do with this image's success. The wall behind, with it's lovely coloured textures contrasts beautifully with the one in front.. Composition wise it has few elements yet there is a lot to look at, over and over again.

 

[Paul Lange]

A great find and very nicely taken and processed, Beth.
