Street Scene - Avenida de Descubridores in La Gomera, Spain

San Sebastian, Spain, 15" x 11"

A street scene based on the Avenida de Descubridores in La Gomera, Spain.  From a composition point of view, I had these dominant white shapes on the left, so I balanced this with some figures on the right.  The largest figure, I try not to have too close to the middle, again thinking about balance and to me "just looking right".  Quite a simple background - palm trees in silhouette are so much easier than deciduous trees in my opinion!
