i think your composition is great ... i love the weirdness of this .. i particularly love the way the shadow is sort'v curled over and the positioning of both the boy and the shadow in the image .. love the way the boy is looking to his left at something we cant see (he looks kinda worried!!)... this is THE most awesome image .. i'm glad i came to put something in the 'add your new updated image here' thread coz i found this .. EXCELLENT .. :):)
edit ... i totally missed the title .. another excellent touch !!:)

i once was blind, but now i see

shanny .. when i saw this as a thumb i thought it was a real cat ... wot a surprise when i opened it .. then i read your comment .. my mum, who was an incredible oil painter lost her sight gradually in the last 7 years of her life ... it was the saddest thing to see ... she had macular degeneration which can be hereditary and lots of much older ppl get it .. she died last year at the age of 91 but she was able to die in her own bed for which we, as a family were very grateful ... she was ready to go and my family and i spent heaps of time with her before she went ... she lived an hour and a half from where i live .. i wore that road out driving to see her all the time!!! ... i miss her so much ...
i sometimes imagine if i could even live without my sight .. it is my world ... and then i think of ppl who have lost their sight and i feel very very sad for them, but i also feel gratitude for the blessings in my life ... :):)xxx

WOW keith ... i just love your processing .. this is truly stunning .. the colours, the depth, the way the girl is reaching out for the chain, (she looks like she's just about to get eaten up by that wave), the boy running .. everything in this image works to perfection ... this photograph really tells a story, an exciting one ... fantastic .. :):)

And The World Passed Him By

i personally reckon the voters must be overtaken by aliens .. this score is so not right ... go check out nick nixter's candid image and his score .. i reckon his image is so much better than mine and yet the voters didnt .. that score is just one more example that the voters dont know if their bums are on fire and have no idea about art .. this is another .. these sort of scores, when i compare them with the photographs that actually beat them, is starting to creep me out ..
i know its a good score shanny, but i reckon it deserves much better .. :):)xx
and you're lucky you can shoot at the mall .. i've been told to put my camera away about 5 times at the mall we regularly go to .. it'll probably happen another 5 x 100 times as well .. !!:)x

love this photograph nick ... a fantastic candid capture .. love your processing, love the shot ... it is just plain excellent .. i especially love the way the image is broken up with the white of the van and the black where your man is standing .. the red bag, the guys skin, the way his suit sort'v merges with the background, the way the vans wheel and tyre are nearly indistinct .. the way the back door of the van and a shadow on the footpath create a great frame for the man .. this is a total WOW .. wot on earth can the voters be thinking .. this is so much better than my entry ... this score shits me .. :):) ..
