Taxi Sir?

God I'm so fed up of the dark evenings... Roll on 21 December when the nights will start to get lighter again...

I've been carrying around my P&S instead of the DSLR this week intending on getting out at lunchtime and taking a few candids.. That hasn't really happened so it's back to the Wharf for yet another pic..

I saw the line of taxis but felt I needed some random stranger action too... and as it was home time, I didn't have to wait long...

Wasn't a great pic but using picnik I added a cinema style filter which has given it a bit of an umph...

Andy this looks great on the phone. Nice light and shadow and good comp.

[Rebecca Briggs]

Nice I like it a lot..x

[Michael Elliott]

It's got a nice vibe Andy. I too posted cinema from Picnik on the #2 album street shot the other day. It's a great feature for the right shot.

[Kathy A]

It certainly does look movieish. Great shot!

[Helene]

great pic Andy

I like what you have done with this photo, great pic!

[Mek]

Good (and sorry) to read i'm not the only one struggling with the short days!

[Brad Johnson]

Nice atmosphere to this one.

[Pinakoteek]

and I have to add to my earlier comment, that I know what you feel...about the dark evenings. When its cloudy, its best to keep the lights on all day. Not yet depressing, but just very exhausting. And challenging to take pretty pictures.

Great street light shot! These dark evenings do provide some interesting opportunities.

the shadows around the man's feet make it look like he's doing a jig! Great lights and all around street scene. You guys have the best taxis!

[Brian Baptie]

Great lighting and composition!

[Yucky Mummy]

[Andrea Freeman]

rather moody picture and I like it.

[John]

Cool lighting in this shot.

[Phil]

The long shadows add to the drama as do the bright lights... that's one good thing about long evenings....?

[Shannon Pitton]

Does look a bit like a movie scene. The long shadow on your random person is a winner.

[Juliette Packham]

[Carly]
