He looks so damn pleased with himself. Probably got a PhD in astrophysics or something ...

Back to Wall-Street

Glorious photography. Especially the weird connection of the man and the bicycle.

Ewww, what's that smell?

Actually it made me think she'd just put her hand in something she shouldn't. Good communication.

A Brief Moment of Silence
by jjbeguin

Comment:
I see you got the Posthumous Blue Hand to go with your Yellow Ribbon. What pulls I think, is the sense of paralysis in his face, to go with the obviously suggested paralysis of his body. Overwhelmed? Restrained? But something suggests to me ... Uncomfortable, and that perhaps says more about him. Love, affection, can sometimes seem stifling.

Art School

Comment:
It's because people decide what they want to/think they ought to see, and they don't look at what they're being shown. What is all this 'too much dark'? Are they mad? Tantamount to saying 'your photograph ought to be different' and that is, actually, quite offensive.

Why ruin my favorite swimming hole?

Comment:
I think, perhaps, a vertical version of this might have suited better. I haven't much to say about it - I don't find much magic in it in any sense, but I think all the necessary weight of composition is in the left side of this image, and the fallen trees add very little - in fact just complicate things unusefully for this place.

Why...can't you just WIPE YOUR FEET!!!!!!!

Comment:
So close together, these footsteps; those, perhaps of a near-invalid, or a sneak. Perhaps that's it - perhaps it's just evidence, and we might read into the few elements we have left to judgement some story of burglary, or given the kitchen-floor feeling, something more sinister. If it wasn't for your title, that is.

Why? No no no! Y-Knot!

I'm unsure of your light, I suppose. This has little appeal to me - in any sense, I'm afraid: one has seen so many still lives, product shots, 'shapes' concocted to amuse us. But a decent hemp rope has such fabulous texture and spikiness that a direct pool of blue light seems an odd choice to illuminate it with.

"Why ... Don't We Care?"

Well; he has boots - dammit, he even has socks. He is almost clean. Care about what? Someone sleeping outside in daylight? I quite like the photograph, although I would think you could have paid a touch more attention to the background, especially the impact of that bush in this composition.

Survey Pin at the Edge of the Ocean... Why?
by macleodn

Comment:
The 'why' that I would append to this is the question about the inclusion of no water in it. The house/inn and cars and stuff of that background pull the eye relentlessly - they're the only human part of this image of course - and as it stands it seems an absolutely suitable place for a survey pin. Where, I should ask, is the water?
