looks very peacefull.

Agreed! I'd love to sit there right about now

Thanks!!

Lovely, could also have been used in the blown out contest

is this an alley, or a passage?

@KYRICOM
In the medieval town IN LiGURIA (ITALY ) , there are many narrow streets that have house's doors ON BOTH SIDES, and in some sections are covered.
The roads were built in this way against the cold, OR pirates.. This is a part of real alley . Sorry I know my english is not good !

It looks like the perfect place to get robbed

very nice...gl

nice!

I knew it!

That's an incredible shot!!!

very nice shot...gl

Any constructive critism welcome!

If I may, I think the issue with this image is that there is nothing that really draws attention in, especially when competing with such a strong background.

If you look at the objects on the left wall, it drags your eye down, and the thing that stands out the most is the red tassle (which leads the eye down and out of the picture).

I hope you don't think my criticism is too harsh, but I think you could work on the composition a little more.

Thank you Ray. You are right, it is "busy" with nothing to focus on. I appreciate any help I can get!

See the comment I left on another one of your entries. Same rules apply. Remember in photography, you can shoot from different angles and get a much better artistic POV. . Try that in a future contest. Shoot from angle that are not normally viewed to the common, like strait up from the floor. Shooting your subject from an unexpected POV will always create more interest. Hope that helps. GL!
