I'm sure other people said this, but this is tilted. I think it would be nicer if it were level.

In the gutter? I think I'd be more careful how I title photos in a public forum!

I would have liked this either tilted to a greater degree or straight as it is it doesn't look like it's on purpose also a wider angle lens might have given this more depth

The title is interesting. "Where my wife spends most of her time" at the alley or in the gutter. lol.

Good composition. I like that you used a vertical composition. Gives you a sense of the length of the alley. Needs to be straightened a little bit. You were able to capture some really nice colors. I like how the reflections are very vivid. Usually bowling alleys have bad lighting, but you were able to get a great shot here.

You mean she hides in the pin-bay of a bowling alley? Bad luck mate. ;)

Nice clean shot - slightly tilted though. It's a shame you couldn't have got an action shot of the ball with pins being knocked over.

In the gutter?

Nice reflection off the lane and ball return. Given the position of the ball, I hope you are not commenting on your wife's skill level as well. :)

This would have been much better if you'd taken a shot of her actually throwing a ball....

Two things: 1) It's tilted WAY to far to the left. This is such a basic problem, I'm surprised how many people don't even notice it. 2) You should have lowered your angle to maybe a foot off the floor. That would give it a much better perspective. I like the colors in the shot however.

I hope you were referring to the bowling alley. . . not in the gutter!

Nice image and very colorful, too bad the horizon isn't level.

Good shot, but not much action....

This one has a lot of potential with all of the colors -- I may have just tried a little different angle. This version seems just a bit tilted, for one thing. I might have tried putting the camera right on the floor of the alley in the middle to give a little different perspective.

Like to colours, but maybe a ball in there would have brought this shot to life. Bit wonkey too.

Hmmmm. I look at the title and then the picture and I say your wife spends most of her time in the Gutter???????
LOL

Would have been much more effective if the ball were just hitting maybe a strike as it is you can barely see the ball and it almost just looks like your shooting just the lane. Also the shot looks tilted, I would have tried to straighten the line of the board -3-
