Wow, what expressive colours. I like the composition. This old sign with it´s black surrounding in contrast to the house in the background is a nice idea,

Great cropping but maybe too high on the intensity of color but then again maybe not. I don't know. Score 9/13 (from the Judgment Day group)

Great - love the strong contrast, saturation and sharpness - i've tried to take similar pictures myself, but my camera was stolen before i got back to the UK.

To me this has a feel of artistic expression. I personally love the over all look. the composition is nice.

What beautiful color and texture! The composition isn't as strong as it could be...if you had included a little more of the building behind the sign (possibly to the right) I think it would have been more interesting. The light play on the sign is great, showing the great detail in the sign's scroll work, but the upper right and left corner's of the frame are blown out.

the sign is great, the composition interesting, but the sky really too overblown.

I like the metro sign, and I like the Parisian house - but they seem to distract from each other here.
Still the idea was a good one, and it evokes Paris for me.

J'aime en particulier la perspective et l'ensemble des couleurs qui réhaussent les formes... Paris, c'est bien evidemment Paris... une ville à y retourner pour redécouvrir ce que le temps nous oblige à oublier!

@Merci bien, Pedro, l'invitation pour joindre ce groupe en particulier - c'est très intéressant l'Art Nouveau! (À ne pas manquer le musée à Salamanca, aussi).

Love the historic Metro sign in the foreground, and the historic building in the background. Gives an enchanting feeling of the "old" Paris.

Hi,
Your Metro image has come up on a Creative Commons search under images that are ok to be used for commercial purpose and work that I can adapt, modify and build upon. As a relative newcomer to Flicker and Creative Commons I just want to double check that It is ok with you to use your image for a Art Street project (non Profit) - I am looking at using the sign and making it a vector image using illustrator.
Cheers
JC
