Cover the two shrubs with snow since they just suck black print ink. Freezingpictures would never sell so well if 80% of his shots weren't snow. He would sell even more if the rest wasn't those dreaded black pinguins but polar bears with white sunglasses and giant lens flare.

if you use replace colour and change those ugly green blocked humps of what i think are shrubs, and make them skin coloured, it might be more interesting. add more flare to the face of the building
and it could look like some well endowned girl is taking a sunbath sans bikini and getting a good flash of sunshine from the sun's flare reflected off the building. very sellable summer health fitness photo, don't you think so? rofl

Haha I am sure the owner of the house will appreciate having a whole studio on his balcony, while he wake up in the morning. I am not dealing with anyone doing microstock, I just take the pics

Flemish you are totally right. How can I have left a nasty dark bush in front. Let see the improved version

Yes, but where is the girl with headset shaking hands over a real estate deal with blown out penguins saving the planet from global warming handing out free gifts in an atmosphere of holistic healing? Why didn't they come up with white print ink on black paper yet?

LOL you are right. I can see the flow of designers searching for blown out pictures because of the mighty recession Haha

Yes and the carbon footprint, global warming and other replacements for the boogieman that make us swallow higher taxes. That's one of the secrets of Yuri Arcurs' success on billboards: his shots are very light and high key. In times where they like to tell us that every Google click will make the sea level rise by 1m, you shouldn't underestimate the contribution of less barrels of print ink in saving the planet.
I see now, this guy is a genius, he actually discover the secret of success in microstock. I just goes re-photoshop all my portfolio, here some of the next successful shot of mine

Now I will be rich it's sure

Holy Sh_t, I am seeing IStockphoto of the week here, I called it first...watch

I am planning all this. I actually watch the owner habits to know when he is not home. I'm looking at his garbage for a signature. I just printed way too much business cards for my needs, so I am throwing them by the bus window while going home at night. Hopefully a real receptionist will find one and I can stole a penguin at the Montreal Biodome. Best seller comming

vonkara, flemish, you guys are so out to lunch. don't you know penguins are black and white? blown out or not, i would say to you vonkara, don't steal a penguin from the biodome, steal a polar bear.
you need a lot more penguins to fill the frame , whereas one frigging polar bear is enough to cover the whole thing. penguins still use up valuable black ink. polar bears don't.
