Sods Law

Well just as I was scraping around the barrel for Docs night pic, I was out last week and got this, quite happy with it, what do you think?

For me the dynamics of the picture face towards the right where the seats point but there's nothing of interest there. The light stream on the left takes my eye to the cluster of lights middle top but that doesn't seem to interact with the seats and hence I am left a bit muddled. I think you may have two pictures here.

As always the technicals are depressingly good!

Good point, something woz bothering me about it!

I think you answered your own question

To be perfectly honest Lilly the shot does nothing for me. the benches, which are obviously the focal point are too central in the frame, in fact to be blunt this is not up to your usual standard, for me the shot is in the first bench and the play of light and shadow on it, crop everything off leaving just the bottom right quarter and I'd be happy.

Just my view of course, others may think its brilliant

As Mike suggests the shot is technically OK

Fair enough!

Just seen this Lilly (got a few spare hours, so have been roaming the Forum). I actually quite like it, and it's certainly more nocturnal than your eventual entry, though I take MikeW's point about the lack of a natural point of focus.
