    Default L.A. Valley College

    Starting a new project based on the grounds of L.A. Valley College. Thought I'd share.

    "In 2001, the voters of Los Angeles approved Proposition A and in 2003 Proposition AA to help improve college facilities at Los Angeles Valley College. Los Angeles voters recently approved Measure J in 2008 to further improve college facilities and expand educational programs to meet the needs of the community."

    I like the composition. Along with the tones is seems to emphasise where it sounds like you are heading with this project.

    I like color, tone and texture, but I'd like to see the row of chairs on a third.

    Hey, jseltzer, please forgive the manhandling but I agree with jabber and thought I'd just give it a little try as a sample:

    Default Thanks...

    I like what you've done, but ultimately I think I prefer my original crop. I like the band of color on the top, and the row actually does sit on a third, and the yellow chair is right near an intersection (is that what you call it?). Anyway, really appreciate the different versions.

    Everyone's art is their own. Don't get me wrong, I think you've got a wonderful photograph there. I really like it. I just see it a little differently.
