ah, bellisimo! This is a wonderfully balanced composition! Divided into quadrants, this alternates light-dark-light-dark in a clockwise or anti-clockwise fashion. Into halves, mainly dark to the right balanced by light to the left. It is true black and white, not some color shot converted in Photoshop for effect. The perspective is excellent, drawing the eye straight towards the two figures at the end of the path, but my favorite spot is the dark figure on the third bench from the right, sort of hiding in the shadows. This photo goes to my favorites. A classic shot, congratulations!
