Calculated Risk

lol Ben, a braver man than you might have submitted this to the January FS, the image is clever, the title sublime! and as Deb says, on a par with Steve's LB take on focus/sharpness.

Erin, you have a vision few can match imho, 'simply' brlliant! I'm at risk of actually wanting to go to an art gallery one day and say lots of 'arty' type stuff about, well anything.

Originally posted by ubique: Originally posted by tph1: Excellent. This would make a nice mural in a formal living room. I agree with the 'excellent' part, but if I had this I'd like a quite small framed print, no bigger than it appears here ... to force the viewer to get up real close to look at it. I think it's a very intimate, one-on-one image.

Now, thats a great idea, you mean like a small image in a big (subtle) frame? I think that would add to the aged look and, on a small canvas you could pass this off as a painting quite easily.

Great capture Deb! Your crop for composition is perfect and this image has so many stories to tell. I'm not sure if its your pp'ing but the B&W conversion seperating the dark blacks from the grey of the BG adds another dimension.

Deb, I love this, almost as much as your pinhole version. Whilst like how the foreground leads you into the crowd of people I like how a crop from bottom to just below the first pedestrians foot makes the image take on a whole knew look and I might prefer it.

lol ART!

Germaine, I'd love you to print out a few copies of this great 'wall' series then go fly post them all on the 'wall' and of course take a shot for us.

I took a quick look at this a couple of days a go and thought I like your creation and when I come back to comment I find it was a serrendipitous moment, either way its a fun shot sir and the LB adds the breakdancing blur nicely.

You got this whole 'angle' think just right (again). Great B&W conversion, care to share your processing method here?

Excellent shot and the LB sweetspot sets this off nicely. At first I wasn't sure about the tilt but am happy with it after a moment or two.

Damn Greystoke (love the name btw) is getting in the way of me losing myself in that awesome background so, I'd like to not see him or have all of his shadow in the image, the bit I see makes me think I'd like to see it all and nice to see he does cast one, I hate vampire cats!

In the right setting (maybe on the wall in the turret) I think this would make a great 'big' print and think shown on the web we lose a lot of the impact of the image. Is it my eyes or does it lean slightly to the right?
