Fascinating capture, Werner. I agree with you that cutting him off partially gave the colorful man even more gravitas. L/F
Werner Padarin replied:
Thank you for your kind comment William - reassuring to know that others agree ...

I like the repetition in this photo. The bricks, the people, the ground, the steps (?), the boats - did you see this, too?
Werner Padarin replied:
I think it was the splash of bright colour to the side, a contrast to the dull busy scene elsewhere that drew me to take the shot - looking at it now I do like the shapes of that busy dull left hand section - I guess those repetitions are probably the reason, but I didn't analyse it then ... thanks Marie!
