Kumar Posted February 10, 2017 Author Share Posted February 10, 2017 Congrats on the win Kumar! My three... Quite simply the most amazing Urban GRAPHIC I have yet seen. So well conceived & executed. Lovely foregound, midground (lamp posts) and background elements. Actually a clear blue sky here would have been so discordant with the tonal harmony of this splendid image. Thanks for sharing.

NYCat Posted February 10, 2017 Share Posted February 10, 2017 One of the things I like about the challenge is that when it is a subject that I don't usually do much of I learn a lot by looking at the images of people who are good at that subject.
