Not at all. :)

this would be a shot I'd like to recreate. 

I've seen others imitate shots they like, and this would be one of mine.....

Definately not. Haven't seen a Vivian Maier photograph that I didn't really like yet. Looking forward to the book.

That is really nice...
I just love the exuberance and minimalism (if there can be such a mix) in that image.

The only people who would find it wrong would be camera club judges who don't know their a*se from their elbow! :o

Well, the photographer obviously didn't expose for the shadows, the focus is on the car and not on the subject, the shutter speed used was too slow to stop motion, a tripod should have been used, a vibration reduction is also needed, using a lower ISO would have created less grain... so lets just give it a 1/10... now that picture of cute kitty cats is so nice ;)

What Francois said.

My goodness, what a powerful image. It made me lose myself for a bit and that's always
a good definition of fine art for me.

This is my first post in well over a year, I'm glad to be back and I've missed you one and
all. I think I forgot I owned cameras, life has been rather hectic.
