Very subtle and involving picture, the various textures and tones coupled with the detatched feet really make the shot. It's very interesting, I like it.

There's alot more going on here than at first meets the eye. Intriguing shot, Chris. Love the b&w.

Do you ever stand at around this spot and worry that for no apparant reason you might feel the sudden urge to just jump? Even though you're perfectly happy? I do, Its well weird. It's like when the voices tell me to wrap tin foil on my head to stop the government listening to my thoughts. Sorry, digressions aside...this gave me the above feeling. I hesitate to say 'nice'. Ill settle for 'wonderfully disturbing'.

@Duncan Galbraith: Cheers mate, that's exactly the look I was trying to get at. It actually occured to me when taking the photo that the rubber strips across the footpath look similar to the material they use on diving boards.

Wayne from Melbourne, Australia

Lovely. It's brilliant in its simplicity and execution. =) Smashing job mate!

I agree with Duncan. There's a certain transgressive temptation latent in the photo--so many lines, none of them to cross. I like the texture of the concrete.
