i like this one, simple enough. remember seeing something like this on TE. this one is nice with proportions, apart from a little tilt.

Beautiful shot Sid, that manages to look like rural ENgland in the fog. SUperb composition and tonal repartition. One of your best...

very nice tonality indeed. Francis is right, looks like Camelot. grains beautiful so is your control of light which I always envy. You shot it on Tmax-100. What f stop and shutter speed you needed to use?

Well, you have captured a famous place and captured it cleverly with a perfect blend of proportions and a great use of foggy background. Nice work.

I just discovered this moody shot of yours, Siddhartha. Wonderful study in tonality and contemplation. Very nice indeed.

Hi Sid,
I like the contrast between the title, which evokes a super busy crowded city and the soft, peaceful mood you show, this aperture in town. Apart from the light tilt, I think it is a very good image, very well composed, good choice of verticality, all the elements, horse, people, trees and building in silhouette, enveloped in the winter mist.

A pity people can't leave these places clean...

Regards
Michèle
