I was attracted by the decoration under the eaves of this late 19th century terrace on the corner of Albion & Selwyn in Paddington. Once I stood on the diagonal, however, the lines of the house, and the lines of the utility poles seemed to have a 'star-wars' effect on my brain. |
The portal for the City Daily Photo community has returned. Add it to your side-bar and make a habit of a daily visit. |

A smashing capture that says so much about your eye. I love it.

Great shot Julie. Such good news about the portal, well done with all your hard work over the months and helping us to keep in contact.
How do I get the picture for my sidebar?
This is excellent, Julie. I rarely try to take wires out of scenes. They are a central part of urban living. In this shot, your careful camera angle made the wires a fine part of the design.
I just learned that the CDP portal is alive again through your leadership and persistence. Congratulations. And, thank you.
Julie, I am so glad that you stood there at that particular point because the photo that you got is great. I think the impact of the lines and the angle and the perspective is better in the black and white one, but I do love the sky in the color version. Thanks!
Mark, I think Eric is going to make one available both on the portal and on FB, when he wakes up. Peter is off with his grandkids for a couple of days.
Jack, thank you for your appreciation. We work as a fine team of three.
lyn: Where does the Olga come into things? I posted both images for that very reason. I like the B&W because it emphasises the tension between the elements, but the sky and clouds in the colour one is just wonderful.
Thank you all for your ocmments.
I prefer the sky in the b&w. Removing the colour also emphasis the strength of the lines more.
You have made a virtual of the ugly wires that so often mar city (and even country) photos. Nice one.
A very fun angle! The color image is more striking.
Only a CDP Blogger would spot the confluence of lines which appears at this particular spot Julie. Great shot.and thanks to you for all your efforts with the CDP community. The new portal is fab. j.
Pattern is everywhere.. A neat find.
Thanks for the CDP info Julie. Have updated my blog to include a link. :)
Great, Jim. Thank you.
