Really great pic, one of my favorite POTD's
in a while, great lines, very NOIR and moody.
I would have cropped just a bit off the top
and right side to give it a rule of thirds
presentation. Nice work!
Yay, thanks everybody and DCist! I knew I
had something when I saw that umbrella go by.
I'm actually surprised by how straight this
came out because I was chasing down the
umbrella whilst shooting. I try my best to
compose in camera so no post-cropping here.
And thanks for the crop suggestion.
Constructive feedback is always welcome!
