High Hopes

I must admit that I have been a bit busy/lazy today. I only did 20 minutes of photography instead of 30 as promised. I will from now on concentrate on one composition and take as many shots as possible and choose my favourite one out of them. This was taken from my leaving room window. I waited 15 minutes for the sun to make its apparition and here we are. This one is called 'High Hopes'.

Wow, great shot!

20 minutes is better than no minutes; seems to me, mission accomplished for the day. =)

Thanks! It was great fun to take photos for a reason :D otherwise I would never pick it up. Unless I'm on holiday.

That antenna will have to stretch a bit higher to catch up with the crane.

I love it. In 2-D, I can't decide if the sun wants to rest on the antenna, or if if the antenna is pushing the sun up towards the crane. In 3-D, I think the depth/composition is wicked cool. And the way the top cloud covers the width of the shot ... really nice.

I believe in the power of goal modification - adapt, improvise and overcome!

Great pic. The sun over the TV aerial could be a nice little visual metaphor to send to Mr Murdoch : )

I recently discovered a cool photography critique group... you post a photo and tell them what kind of critique you want (composition/technical/whatever) and at least a few of the 11,000 members will offer their expertise, generally kindly, to help you improve your photography.

In theory, you are supposed to also offer critiques, but I don't feel that I know enough yet. All I can say is "Oo! I like that!" or "Pretty colors!"

It is fascinating to see the photos and read the critiques. You can post one photo for critique every 24 hours... perhaps you could post your choice of the day there!
