It's so good! It's so... I dunno... the black and white adds to it, gets rid of the distractions or something, so you just focus on one or two main things? Yeah, it just kinda grabs ya... +fav

Thanks for your compliments guys! Glad you liked my photograph.
I'm actually entering this into a competition... I don't really have much of a chance considering I'm only 16 and have had no lessons in photography at all, and I'll be up against professionals.... I still want to have a go I guess.

Thanks again guys :-)

not a problem, im 16, and i never took any photo classes, and i already have a show being sold off at a local cafe'.
your age and experience doesnt matter. the art comes from the love. make love to your camera!!!! (and use a computer grafix program to help you)

It's a big privellege to take a picture of some painter working. I wouldnt let you for sure. Very nice perspective though I would not wanna see the painting. :)

Yeah he's painting by the harbour in Sydney. 'The Rocks' is the area near the foot of the Harbour Bridge, and on the western shores of Sydney Cove. 'Art on the Rocks' is an annual festival/competition type thing, where artists set up around the streets, by the water and things, and paint/draw all weekend.... then each work is judged. It's really great, there's jazz bands scattered around the place too - a great atmosphere!

Thanks for your comment, I'm glad you like this piece! And it also means you went through my whole gallery, considering it's my first I ever submitted.... so thanks some more!
