Strong men contest, a photo from Malopolskie, Est

Photographer's Note

It's a detail from Cracow that I just recently discovered. It's a front of an old tenement house in Cracow. In the center of our city.
It was hard to take this shot cause there was nothing I could stand on (ladder would be very appropriate) and a picture was a bit tilted. I managed that in PS.
It is b&w, however it's hard to find a difference in reality. Colour of this building is just the same.

Very interesting framing here, Piotr.
Although you said that the real color is the same, i reckon the B&W can help us to see more details on it. Great sharpness, well captured.

A repetitive composition is simply great here and the use of B&W enhances the feeling of oldness about the image. An excellent capture! Pozdrawiam!

Krakow is a beautiful city. This shot is razor sharp an dthe use of BW is very called for. The vertical format also makes this shot powerful. Good work Piotr.
