Walking on Broken Glass...

I went out this afternoon with an idea....and the building I wanted, one of my favorite old decrepit buildings in Petersburg is no longer decrepit! The nerve, fixing up the place!!!:wink:wink

Anyway, I decided I would try a different spot..a river near the college. Surely there would be broken beer bottles! But no, there are trash containers and signs asking to keep the place clean and they do! (Youth today!:dunno)

Walking to the car, trying to think of some other idea, as this was a wash, and what do I hear crunching under my feet?

What are your thoughts?

    Cool idea. None of these are really speaking to me. I think the focus is a little soft on the first 2. In the 3rd, the glass is not prominent enough.

    I agree with WhatSheSaw. Maybe if there was more context?

    When you come to a door... walk through it.
    If it's locked... find an open window.

    Two new shots I got this morning while walking. I stopped when I received the call that my father died this morning. The cold mood is suiting me right now....

    Oh, so sorry to hear about your father! I'm liking the first frosted glass better than your original ones.

    Thanks.
    It was not an unexpected call, he'd been very ill for months (heck I even went out with the phone, having a feeling the call was coming).....

    Sorry to hear about your father. Even when expected, it can be hard.

    These are both nice and better than the first set. I like the DOF in the 2nd. Are they the same bottle? The color is so different. I'm not sure which I like better.

    thanks. They are the same bottle, but I played around with it in post for some color shift... maybe the shallow dof with the color shift? It's doable..
