Wow, I love the colours here! I've been to Montreal many times and you won't believe how I'm kicking myself that I missed this! The effect is almost like that of a swimming pool. What time of the day did you take this? Composition/colour perfect!

Hi Denis,
Very interesting colours and effects! Good compo. TFS, regards.

Hi, Denis. An imaginary place! The color looks like bubbles in dreams. Everything seems to be melting. I think you can crop the left side of the picture, the black shadow. The black shadow looks abrupt in such an environment of warm colors. The viewer may not focus their attention on the whole of the picture. And the blanks of the two sides are not the same width, which makes the picture look tilted. Nice shot! I really enjoy your work. Just keep on!

Hi

I agree with Xingyuan about the left hand crop I think you would have a stronger image without the black triangle - but otherwise this is an image that wows! Great observation - really nice POV/composition and a clarity that's just amazing!.........colour that defies 99.99999% of what we know about and experience in the world - whoever designed this gets my vote along with you for capturing it so well - just fantastic!

best wishes Kev

Wonderful colours and light. Cool effects! Nice POV and angle.
I agree with some of the other, to crop out more on the left.
Good work!

Salut Denis,

qui eut cru que le Palais des Congrès, si laid de l'extérieur (a mon avis), pouvait être l'origine d'une photo aussi originale.

Les couleurs sont simplement hallucinantes! Bravo

Hello,
I am back from a trip to Quebec, and I missed this !
Your photo is great, the eye is invited to go downstairs, and the follow the path. The composition is efficient.

I like the panorama format, but I would have removed the extreme left, I find the black triangle a bit distracting, because of its angle. I mean, having a black element on the left of the image could give some dynamism to it, but maybe you should try to correct the perspective then.

Anyway, it is a great image !

C'est très surprenant.
Moi qui suis plutôt attirée par les paysages naturels, je ne peux pourtant pas m'empêcher de rester en admiration devant cette photo. Il y a une symphonie de couleurs qui me parait très bien rendue, et l'angle choisi est intelligent, dynamique.
Merci pour ce partage, Denis.

Bonjour Denis,

Ça faisait un bon moment que je voulais vous rendre visite... Et voilà qu'en regardant les pages dédiées à Montreal j'ai été plutôt choquée de ne m'y être pas "arretée" plus souvent!
Cette ville doit être magnifique car elle est l'inspiration de plusieurs excellents photographes comme vous, Elise/Elise_d, Claire/Clairedelune, Cédric/frozenjazz, Benoit/Bliard, et plein d'autres...

* J'adore aussi le titre de l'autre photo, "A Walk into the Rainbow", on penserait y voir marcher Judy Garland dans ses petits souliers rouges... :o)

Alors merci pour cette belle image qui a éclairé ma journée aujourd'hui.

** La photo de Paperman est aussi très réussie.
