For the challenge, I say it fits perfectly...
A good thought process went into this im my opinion..:)
It defanetly says family either way you look at it..
Wether its communication by mail or by the boxes being ralating..
The perpespective is really nice as well...
Keeping in the same perspective maybe this would of have done a little better if the boxes were more the focal point and there was less of the building, sidewalk, and the window..
ALl in all though I like it better then mine its less cluttered and theres more space to draw in the attention.. Good job, I like it.. :)
This is a strange take on the subject. I am left to interpret myself and I can only think the passport photo in the window as a form of traveling to meet family??? Or connecting with family through the mail??? Maybe both? Interesting the more I think about it. 5
Let me guess...they're hoping for a mail child? Sorry, I couldn't resist. It's a cool street shot with interesting angles. It's one of those that doesn't scream "Family", but I don't want to get into that argument because mine is another.
This just doesn't speak to me. I have considered it several times before commenting. The lighting is a bit harsh and I see where you are trying to go with the mailboxes, but overall, it's just kind of blah. Maybe a black and white filter would give it more contrast and make it have more of an urban appeal.
It makes sence, but there's nothing particularily special to find in this picture.
If you focussed on shooting the mailboxes themselves, and left out a lot of the stuff around, this could have had a better impact.
A little brightness/contrast could help as well in photoshop
for me, this is reaching a bit too far away from any traditional meaning of family. i really did try to understand the reasoning behind it from many perspectives. sorry.
