This was taken a few minutes after yesterday's effort, and in many ways I prefer this one. I also think this is a bit more chromasia-like than my recent stuff so I'll be interested to hear your opinions.

It's like a story, or a dream...

Stunning as ever mate. You are an inspiration

I have wanted to post for a while but have been waiting to get my own site more underway. This is pretty and definitely more "chromasia" in nature. I love the saturation. The only thing I would say is that I kind of would have liked to see the blue on the left side cropped in a little more so there is not quite so much of it. Very nice though. Looks like you are adjusting to your new camera quite nicely.

Very much more 'Chromasia like'. Full of reflections and not immediately clear what is being photographed. I like it.

Is this looking into a shop window of some kind?

love this! love the colors and the shapes. very inspiring indeed.

This is one of my favorite of your 'reflectives' -- I love the elegant script . . . and the blue in contrast with the orange. Really nice work, Dave.

David really nice reflection! The 20D suits you! Bravo

Lovely shot. The blue colors are great and the reflection of the building goes very good here. Nice work.

This time you have my congratulations! Much better then the prev one!

comment by peterv at 10:42 AM (GMT) on 10 October, 2004

Yes this one is much better. I lik e your 'straight' colour photos much more than the colorised ones. I agree with the comment about the blue on the LH side. Once again your use of DOF is teaching me something I must look for in my own photography.

You're pretty good at working with reflections David...
I like the color a lot.

50-200 /f4 ? is that new?

comment by Daaave at 09:48 PM (GMT) on 10 October, 2004

I love the look of the glass chandelier (is that what it is?), it intitially had me thinking that there were loads of large droplets of water on the glass. Very nice.

comment by Dan at 09:59 PM (GMT) on 10 October, 2004

Once again, amazing. Great shot.

comment by djn1 at 10:21 PM (GMT) on 10 October, 2004

Thanks everyone.

PhilB: yes, this is a shop window. The picture frame, chandelier and curtain (the cursive writing) were all in the window and the building you can see reflected is our local Salvation Army building.

Carlos: no, this was taken with my 70-200.

Just brilliant! Well done!
