wundervolles grafisches Munster und der Rote Punkt ist der Blickfang

I did reply below, aNNa, but didn't use the reply button, so you may not have been informed of it. Thanks again. I think anything red is automatic composition. Whence my admiration for the Der Rote Punkt group.

Like some kind of maze or test - and the figure looks bewildered, from the body language of the instant. And all because you caught the perfect time when the shadows were there and the person was, too.

Love the angle and the inclusion of the objects top and bottom creating a strong diagonal. The shadows are wonderful. Geometric and then the curves of the human frame. The hand is an extra special touch.

Thanks, Jean, especially as I hadn't thought about the comparison between the geometry and the human frame. My best speculation about the hand is that it's actually the shadow of a pair of gloves.

Great light and shadows! Very cleverly composed - the lady's red coat draws the eye into the shot immediately!

Great work John.

the shadow of the hand ... so sharp, it's a little spooky in contrast with the ghostly fuzziness of the real person. Uh-oh.

It reminded me of some deliberate visual effects in hrror movies, Sarah.

Nosferatu....land the tipped angle and shadows...but the backpack rather lets down the urban Gothic mood.

John FitzGerald club has replied to Steve Bucknell club
Good point, Steve. I may be wrong, but I think in Gothic horror people tend to have servants to carry things around for them. That is, they are naive.

Like Nosferatu shadow...

John FitzGerald club has replied to Denis Croissant club
I've never seen Nosferatu, Denis, so wasn't aware of the scene till you and Steve mentioned it. There is a strong resemblance, though, isn't there? Blind luck here, really -- the right gloves in the right place at the right moment.

Great composition!!!
The "Caution Wet Floor" sign -
just the right counterpoint to the red jacket.

Thanks, Richard. Yes, I think it needed two points of colour. Luckily I always like to stick one in a corner if I can.
