Description
Deeply engrossed in her newspaper, she did end up missing her train. I ended up missing the same train as they had it leave from yet another platform... Eventually we both ended up in the same train, but I didn't show her the shot.Schiphol Airport

I love the feel of this picture. The hint of colour really adds a human feel to the photo. Its simplistic and complicated at the same time. Basically, I'm jealous : D

lovely shot. agree with all the other comments about the very balanced compo and choice of elements here - the pattern of the ceiling, the negative space etc - great mood! Desat works really well for me too. Now, I have one minuscule niggle but it does stick into my eyes immediately (sorry

I dont think the B&W would have had the same richness as this version. The partial desaturation lends a certain vibrancy to it.

My thoughts exactly.

this really is a great shot ... so strong . simple . and clean ... at first I thought it was b+w, nice work

Thank you
There was some argument over whether full b/w would have been better, but I decided to leave it as is: severely desaturated

simply taken, the photo tells a story too, with the woman being in the image, adding more depth to it. good shot!

i agree that this is very good.
appealing, straight and clean.
pure bw would have been my
prefered choice as well. but
thats a personal taste issue.

Loverly shot, so you do take your camera to work with you!
I like the structure and the light through the ceiling circles. I like how you did keep a hint of colour in it, it makes the girl look more "human" in such a beautifully stark surrounding.
Hope you was'nt late for work / dinner

I desaturated the image by a bout 90% which left just a hint of colour. I'm glad you like it
Oh, and I was late for work, but luckily I was late already

Wow, great shot Jan. I like how reduced it is to simple elements, the column, floor and ceiling, the woman on the bench. The composition or balance is also very good - placement of the elements over the format and the mixture of dark and bright areas. The only thing I would criticize is the slight sepia-toning, bare b/w would be my choice. But that's nitpicking.

Glad you like it and many thanks for the
I tried verious options when reducing the colours, but ended up pleased most with this desaturated version.

really well done capture, i mean the whole concept, lights, this white column and her sitting on the bench.

I like the tidy'nes of the sharp "straight to the point" attitude the scene creates through its situation/surrounding.I especially like the way you have captured a very set and perfect setting through the objects set in place and how you have used these rather than the scene make you feel used ie setting in your own feel within the shots placing.While the person sat reading adds the perfect amount of depth and reality the work needed and idea.Overal a tidy,sharp and clever shot along with the meaning.Good work.4D.
