Another great look at the library Ian. Great tones, shades and shapes all through this and this emphasizes the "tiny" humans even more. Very nice.

Very well done, Ian. Nice lines and shadows of the building and the people add a fine dynamic. I really like the shadow of the guy on the right. I might burn down the underside of the overhang top left, but that is getting pretty dang picky.

Ian: I really like the symmetrical lines of the columns and the shadows that they create. The seated and standing people provide a sense of scale and elevate the photo from being a purely architectural shot. The B/W processing was a fine choice. Well done! Richard

Ian: Well seen and captured. I like the tonal range especially. On the thumbnail and regular sized image I thought the guy standing by the wall was a statue! Glad you posted a large version. 2 thumbs up.>=))>
