A portrait of our town hall

[Nancy_LA_MA]

This was the last of several attempts at taking a portrait of the town hall via its reflection in a shop window across the street.  I had worked my way up the street doing this at various windows, mostly having trouble getting the right view because the image was usually too high.  

By the time I got to the jewelry store - slightly upgrade from the others - it became my favorite view.  That square has a box recessed on the other side of the glass, where jewelry displayed on a form of a neck/throat.  I thought the necklace was positioned nicely, to drape the town hall.  

The picture would have worked much better with out the cars parked in the lot across the street.  My husband said that if I would get up earlier (!Hah!), there wouldn't have been any cars there.  Of course, that would be an entirely different time of the day and the reflection would have been different.

Your mssg. has prompted me.  I intended to scan all those 8x10 b/w photos I developed in Michael's dark room - just never got around to it.  I scanned several not long after developing them, but not all, and I keep wishing I had certain ones at my fingertips.

Is your camera a digital camera or did you scan the picture into your computer?  Either way, it would depend on the size it was saved as and the number of pixels.  2-300 pixels is usually a good number use.  If you save your picture as an 8x10 then you should be able to get it to enlarge.  The picture of the poppy I used in this forum was done that way and while it does not enlarge to an 8x10 when clicked it if it is downloaded it will.  Hope this helps.  Charley

I have added this photo to an album on my Profile page - and I think that clicking on it doesn't produce an image any larger than is possible in this forum.

I liked the way the tree frames the white square.  

Clicking on the picture does enlarge it - and I don't have any idea how to go about making it larger than that.  If you know - tell me and I'll be glad to do it.  I'm just so pleased to have someone enjoy the picture!  :-)

I did enlarge it.  It's a very interesting picture. I agree with Lulu, I'd love to see a bigger print.  Can you upload a larger one?   Charley

There's sure a lot going on in this picture - it reminds me a bit of something perhaps Dali would have painted - the bare trees, the clouds, the necklace ----  I like it.  I wish I could make it mega large to see even more of the details.  - L

Oh, thank you!!  I am so pleased you looked at it.  

Did you click on it to view the larger version?  The necklace isn't really visible in that smaller view.

Again, thank you...
