    Nice pic, Scott. thumb.gif I have always had a weakness for alley shots, maybe because I spent so much time in them when I was a kid in Chicago. I wonder whether you could improve it some by cropping a bit off the bottom and a bit more from either side so that the vanishing point is less centered. headscratch.gif Just a thought...it's just fine as it is.

    Cheers,

    I think it is definitely an improvement.thumb.gif I cropped right up to the shadows at the beginning of the alley, then backed off a bit. What do you think? Is this what you had in mind Richard?
