About the Image(s)
This is a recently renovated step street in Manhattan which I help maintain. Typical NYC with trash at the bottom. The green visible behind the street lamps came from the iphone but I left it to give some color. Some cropping was done and minor distractions were removed.

Hi Sharon
Great image the subjects really well placed in the frame and they look natural not posed which really adds to the image lighting is wonderful,I think this would look really atmospheric in black and white as well. Posted: 11/09/2025 13:12:44

Nice backlit photo with subjects on stairs. Interesting shadows in foreground. Agree with Ian, Monochrome might be better. Posted: 11/14/2025 00:05:59
I really like this. It has impact. While it might do well in B&W, I like the subtle colors and shading. Posted: 11/17/2025 20:21:34
The men are so well place in the frame and the backlighting adds interest.. Fine night scene. I think I might remove some of the trash as well as the orange cone at the bottom of the steps. Posted: 11/19/2025 11:29:41
I really like the symmetrical composition and the way that the two figures add interest to the symmetry. Posted: 11/19/2025 13:13:41
Agree with the comments above with some burning with the lamps to enhance the subject. Posted: 11/20/2025 02:05:19
