Thanks for taking the time to select this weeks image Zafra! Nicely selected and thanks for sharing your thoughts.

The picture that I believe should be the Picture of the Week is number four
in B&W Squared by Geoff M. I like its composition, the Black and white
treatment, its mood, how the most prominent element (the bridge) guides the
viewer's eye to the second element (the dome of St Paul's) strategically
placed on one of the two thirds (making the composition works). I love how
this picture makes the viewer's eyes travel back over the bridge
discovering little people one by one unaware that they are being
immortalised as tiny dots. It is in short the type of picture I wish I had
taken.

No amount of processing will fix bad composition - trust me i have tried.

Thanks to Zafra for choosing one of my images, it was not my favorite image from the set but I will happily take the accolade.
