thanks david, my camera is a canon ixus 400, a little digital camera that i keep with me to shot impressive view (maybe just for me!) during my trip... Anyway, it's a easy cam for dummy! It's not possible to set field depht or any foundamental things as a camera designed for professionist or amateur . About the shot... let me say it was the best point of view avalaible!!! Otherwise i had to include terrific orange fence, man at work and other not so poetic subject. I'll bring with me your suggestions for the future...
A very interesting shot, one with lots of potential. I am not familiar with your camera, so please I speak of what could be done, maybe not with your camera, but in general. The subject is wonderful, but maybe just a little lost in the background for it's full effect to be felt. I like your choice of black and white, but maybe if it were possible with a shallower depth of field to blur out the buildings and trees in the background and again just thoughts, but maybe maybe move the shot to the left and get low to the ground to emphasize the leaning of the gnarled old trunk on the brick support. Please just some thoughts, lots of potential here and I like the feel of what you have done, but maybe some ways to enhance what you have done already.
