Circle of squares

Comment by io:
This is a simple but very effective photograph. The reflection of the sky in the manhole cover matches perfecly with the colouration of the damp road/path. My only concern is with the bright edge along the top of the picture, which I find distracting - it interrupts the even tone and calm mood of the rest of the image. (I also wonder how the photo might have looked had it been cropped square; creating squares within a circle within a sqare - not a criticism by any means - just a thought - as I guess it might have made the crop too tight. A really excellent capture - well done.

A building with a lot of "character"; odd how the windows are painted. Composition lacks impact for me.

Good idea. I like how the ice is melting over the bricks an the sewer cap. The squares are well defined and in good contrast with the bricks. Good job.

Nicely done, and all the better for being the only man-hole cover submitted, which I found a bit surprising given the number I saw walking home from work!

I'd love to see the other shots from this session. This is intriguing to my eye, yet feels. . . almost great.

Comment by Gekker:
you've got a good eye. like colors, ice and snow. Top seems a bit washed out or something, not sure if it's just snow or not, no big deal though.

Very nice, I really like your shot. The eye of the viewer is guided immediately by the reflections to the squares on the manhole cover. Good eye to catch this! Perhaps I would have cropped a little smaller. There are some distracting objects on the top and the right side. Apart from it the composition is perfect. Good luck for the challenge...
