Hydrant

Jason Kravitz from Brussels, Belgium

Ha - I thought that was a bomb. stuck in the ground for a minute there and was wondering why such a crazy little cartoon would be painted on the side of a bomb.

I like the shot - a little slanted though - maybe a slight counter clockwise rotation would bring it round.

Stu from Kyoto, Japan

nice one chris. i'd say the shot was straight but those two poles look crooked...or is it some kind of optical illusion....?
anyways, looks good to me. nice use of shadows and the subtle blur round the edges sets it off.
nice take.

hehehe...you and Maoya should do some kind of international hydrant hunt. Love the subtle processing.

Maoya from Rolle, Switzerland

Hihihi!! I like those guys to! They paint them into all sorts of crazy characters here, but haven't dared to post any of those kind yet. Quite a different shape, gonna have to go to Australia next to complete my collection...
So of course love this picture especially the shadows and the glow on the poles.

Rigolo le petit bonhomme entre les gendarme. Le post traitement donne une ambiance un peu glauque. Super!

These guys sure get around. First Maoya, and now you... Perhaps we should all post photos of our local hydrants.

It's a very cute photo. I like the softness of the photo. Even though it's not snowing it looks like it's going to. Intersting and a fun photo.

A lovely composition for such an image that has such character.
