I can't decide because they are all wonderful!

John @ Beans and I on the Loose said...

Okay, I have to be different. I like the black and white.

Michelle said...

I like the b/w.

Revrunner said...

Add another for the b&w.

Lowell said...

In re the first photo - this is one shot that I think works best in b&w...very artsy and dramatic ... everything is going every which way, including the brick. Dynamic!

Randy said...

I like the first shot and the color of the brick.

Pamela Gordon said...

I love the graphic lines in these photos. Nicely done.

GreenComotion said...

I like all the photos. I am intrigued by the geometries.
Well done, Tina.
Have a Beautiful Day!
Peace :)

You found a scene with lots of angles and interest and went wild with it. I'm going to have to check out that Geometry meme. Interesting.

Ginny Hartzler said...

I love what you did with the last one the best! They seem to be not making fire escapes any longer, you see less and less. I wonder why that is? I guess all newer buildings are obliged to have more than one entrance due to fire code.

Hilary said...

I like the black and white because it reminds me of the fire escapes of my childhood in Montreal. It's fun to play with our images, eh?

Gemma Wiseman said...

The cropped and turned version creates an illusion of slow movement. Fascinating.

Gattina said...

Excellent results, very creative !

Great photo art.

A very interesting subject. Lots of lines, patterns, angles etc. Personally I prefer No. 1 and 2 (the others are too cropped for me). I like monochrome very much, but here I feel that the colour version gives me more.

Malyss said...

funny and creative ! I like how it turns in the last picture !

Breathtaking said...

Pablo would be impressed,because I do think the cropped one is like a painting.Super image, and I like the black and white one too.

I like them all! Phyllis

MadSnapper said...

I like them ALL but i think the black and white i like a tad more than the others. this is true art to me...

Judy said...

Looks like you are having some fun! I have to say, I like every one of them. Those windows are nice. I like all the lines.

Rose said...

I love the brick treatment above that window!

cieldequimper said...

Brilliantly graphic shots!

I love that Lori started this meme. Would any of us have even seen this as a geometric masterpiece before we were tuned in to it by her? This is just awesome and surprising at the same time. Everywhere we look we see those tell tale shapes :) Beautifully done ...

Jack said...

Hmmmm. I'm going with the original.

Liz said...

I love these creative images. Well done!

NatureFootstep said...

It is a beautiful BW Image and I like the glowing one at the end. Just hoping it is not fire :)

Anvilcloud said...

Sometimes, b&w is the best way to go, as in this case, for me anyway.

Anonymous said...

love the split-toning/posterized image especially

CJ said...

Wonderful image for the theme. Architecture usually makes such lovely geometric images. And I love stairs of all kinds, too.

Lmkazmierczak said...

Really liked your cropped and turned shot...sometimes I forget a new perspective can result in a dynamic shot♪

Prairie Jill said...

Ooh, nice edits!
