Of late, I do not feel satisfied with the photographs I have been taking. Most of them look nicely composed but too obvious. These do not seem to take my mind on an imaginary trip. When a photo taken us into another realm, that would make it a successful photo for me. There is that third dimension that is missing from what I have been shooting.

Last night, I photographed these as I walked home. The photograph of the commuter in a hat and overcoat looked like a painting to me – not perfect but has a mood to it.

Where do I go?

A couple hundred meters further down the street, I photographed another cyclist :

To see these in bigger size as a slide show, please check this link: Paris commuters at night

Now, my questions to you: Which one appeals to you more? Why?
Do you care to share your views or any thoughts on the perceived third dimension in a photograph?
