  1. Marvellous window shot. The graphism is so interesting with the repetition of the triangle shapes. The negative space is very impressive and outlines the white blind and the “stick” in such an appropriate manner. -how do we name this “stick” that is not a stick?

    The stick and the green strap, wich are exceptions in the composition –vertical line and vivid color– strongly anchored this whole and beautiful picture.

    Chapeau, April! I enjoyed this “zen” picture so much. It gives a feeling of calm. Very contemplative. Great sens of balance.

  2. Forgot to tell you that I had sent a lot of your eCards.

  3. Thanks very much for your feedback on this capture, Micheline. I wasn’t sure what to call the “stick”, either, but it turns out to be a “rod”.

    And I’m so glad you mentioned the e-cards! Just last night I considered deleting the Fotomoto features from this site—until I read your note. 🙂

  4. Hi, April – interesting image. I like the triangle and the lone vertical line/rod suspended in “space”

    I had never noticed your eCard feature! I’m glad you didn’t delete it, as I may send some in the future.
