smaller is nicer?

Karl. I just happened to come across this image in the 'have you-seen-this-image' box on the front page. I had already seen it before, but the strange thing was, that it seemed to look better at the small size in the 'have you-seen-this-image' box.

very nice.

I too just came across this like Wilfred did but much later than he did. Somehow missed it the first time. Excellent image. I like the combination of elements, from the hard mottled street, the soft, yellow leaf and the spotting of water. The yellow color is just fantastic, oftentimes I love one color against a neutral color to set it off, less distracting other colors make it more beautiful. Good use of that wonderful 90 Sonnar.

Leaf it alone

Agree that it looks better in this orientation though Lincon has sussed the water droplets are upside down. I do like the exposure and composition.

Guess what?

I just saw this in the same way as Wilfred and Richard before me. Very nice indeed.
