this is a nice city life shot but it looks a little hot on the exposure... the colors are washed out... I think a shot like this done early in the morning would be nice :) = 6 - jmsetzler

Nice color, composition, clear shot. Hate to see that smog since I'm just south of you!! Very nice catch of the little plane taking off. Kee

Its a bit hazy for a good long distance photo. I had that problem almost all week too. Got a good city picture and then decided not to use it.

This shot was taken in my garage. I used a hologen light to create the shadows. I needed the light another 5 or 6 feet further away to get the shadows with less distortion, but I couldn't get the lamp that far away, too short of a cord and NO grounded extension cord, bummer. The elves were from a metal garden cut out and the extra stuff was a potted tansey.
I was trying to give the effect of a moonlit dance. After much thought, I wish I had included a small, round mirror (to emulate the moon) and glitter for a little sparkle, but hindsight and all. Thanks for the comments.

I wish the shadows were more vivid...they seem blurry.

The title definitely helps me to see that in the shadows. I couldn't help but wondering what I would have seen if you hadn't titled it that?
