I like this quite a bit, however I think that it would be far more effective in b/w

pete said 359 days ago:

thanks :) i only took this today, so didnt have much time to play with it before i stuck it up.. maybe i should have waited a bit.

zorilla said 359 days ago:

not a good composition

Beamer said 359 days ago:

Feels more like a "tourist" activity, not a daily life kind of scene, except for the guard... Must be an overcast day, the lighting falls a little flat, which pulls down the impact a little.

flipthom said 359 days ago:

I'm trying to figure out what this is, exactly. The sign says "New Age"...there appears to be a Roman soldier on a horse and tourists. Well, interesting gets you good marks for this although I'd love to see a more specific focus and perhaps a black and white version.

pete said 359 days ago:

this is one of the 'horse guards' in London. they sit on their horses all day. Where once they were guards, they are now a tourist attraction..

and yes.. the light was terrible :(

pete said 359 days ago:

@flipthom- the sign actually says 'beware- horses might kick or bite'

Ana said 359 days ago:

oh yes, i see knights on horses all the time around here.
:)

flipthom said 359 days ago:

Perhaps I should check my glasses perscription...hee hee.

pete said 359 days ago:

move to London.. there are two at least :P

the theme doesnt have to be our life surely..

Ana said 359 days ago:

This theme confuses me.....
big time.....

sigh.
I feel super stupid. Life Magazine? Every day activities. No idea how that fits together....

Montage said 359 days ago:

Relevant, I guess, but the shot as a whole doesn't hold a lot of interest for me. Seems more just like a bit of a tourist snapshot.

pete said 359 days ago:

i have a number of 'good' photos of just the guy on the horse. but this one, i felt, gave the feeling more of being in his life- i.e a tourist attraction
