Thanks. This is Point State Park in downtown Pittsburgh. The granite lines demarcate the old Fort Duquesne. This is as high as I could frame it without bringing in other distractions. There were probably other possibilities, but I was pretty happy with this.

Excellent. I really like the lines in this. I wish this were on a grander scale, but I'm still enamored with the shot.

PS. This got a lovely gasp of pleasure from my friend Z. Really, that's her initial.

How can something so simple improve with age? No time to bump up my 7. Love the first comment.

8 from me. Just think how much higher it would have been if you added a lot more colour, placed it in the middle, gave it more "pop", sharpen it a lot, and took out the ugly white line. hehe.

Not bad, not bad at all ... What's lacking though? More definition? More contrast? Less contrast? Certainly a good one that left me still pondering.

Definite minimalism with the line. I think overall the tones of the shot are a drab medium grey and not very exciting. Nothing real dynamic to the composition other than the zig zag line and the off center placement of the subject. Perhaps a more overhead view would have added some needed perspective.
