Experimenting with colourcasts (via curves) and this dingy alley with wheelie bins made an ideal subject

Pharmer,

While this image might not appeal to everyone, I like this a lot and definitely fits your style.

It's got your normal urban grit about it, and the wide angle perspective adds dimension to the image.

The first thing that grabbed my attention in the image was the serial on the side of the bin, and after a quick "thumb over the spot", i think it adds rather than distracts.

Cool angle, cool treatment. I'm not normally a huge fan of these kinds of images but this definitely works - has a really strong "design" feel to it.

You've obviously put a lot of thought into this and I think it's paid off!

I like the style a lot.
If it was my image, I would clone out the two white squares on the back wall, I feel they distract a little, but definately leave the grafitti.

I like it! It's certainly different from the other pics that have been posted.

My only criticism is that it's a tad blown on the RHS, maybe try reducing the exp comp a bit and see how you go.

Piro - not blown in the original, done deliberately in PP, gave it a bit more focus on the bins

Great pic pharmer

Luv this style... the colour & contrast is fantastic.

The bins compliment the surroundings perfectly

I like this image too!

I agree with some of the comments already made, I don't know if you've done any cropping already? But I'd think about cropping in a little bit while rotating clockwise, so that the far bin is more in the corner. I think that would help with the "stand off" idea, and it leads you eye up into the top corner.

But nice. Has a cross processed feel and suit the subject.

cheers,
Danny.

Interesting image and fast becoming signature style Pharmer. I agree with MArty's comments on this one.
cheers

Nice. I quite like this one, Pharmer. Well thought out and composed.

I really like your creativity and the gritty urban feel in the image... Also think the distortion in the perspective adds to the composition.
