This is one of my favorites, looking down on a cafe table that was slightly protected from the rain. The more I look at it the more I’m drawn to the pop of bold color in the corner. In retrospect, I wish I’d chosen this as my entry into the contest because the inclusion of the people gives it more emotion that the “empty” shots. I’m using it for the “shiny” theme because the shine of the water on the pavement was the other really strong element that keeps drawing my eye back creating a tension between the water reflecting the grey sky and the bold colors.

That amazing colour in the table is very eye-catching, and I too am constantly drawn to the reflected water and back again.
Collossal Composition achievement Karen, so Dramatic yet calm.
The pop of color next to the shiny water is wonderful.
that color on a dreary day is fabulous
Nice the way you drew the color out of this scene.
Lots of reflections here…both of water and of the men on the subject of their conversation.
