I disagree -- the graininess makes this shot, and I think the framing is outstanding. I'll leave it at that.. Great shot.

May be a little grainy. Need to work on framing too.

Good photo! Black white works very good. I like the grained look. Somehow looks like a still from a film.
I'm sure many people suggested to zoom in a little bit but I'm not sure if such a tight crop would be better.
Instead I would have tried to show the face more clearly. E.g. by going a step to the left so that the scratch is not in the middle of his face. The person is more interesting than the scratch.

Good shot, and well-executed. I'm not sure why this is so grainy but it works for me.

good film noir feel .. the grainyness helps.

Finally! A photo that says something about the personality of the city, not just another mall snapshot. Well conceived and exposed. I like the gritty texture on it.

Difficult image to view. Dark and grainy. Is the title referring to the caller or the booth? Photo 5 City 7 total 6

edgy, good journalistic photo of city life.

There really isn't anything very eye-catching in this photo. At least for me.

This is neat. Hard to capture, too. Very news magazine-like.

great. spooky. very metro.

This is a neat photo... I really like the black and white on this as well... Maybe a little tighter cropping or getting a little closer would create a better frame for the image :) good shot! = 7 - jmsetzler

I really like the feeling that this picture gives,.. its dark and grainy ... in one image I understand his thoughts..

A little like a horror flick.
06/24/2002 06:26:00 PM
that is just scary

I like that you change the mood by using B&W.

Nice shot-kind of moody look to it. Kee
