| I keep thinking that that bird is looking at you for help in getting his money back, as the stupid machine has eaten his quarters and not given him a coke! There are some wonderful elements to this that really make me smile. The tilt of the shot (OMG, it's not level, DNMC DNMC!!!) adds a dimension of oddity that fits with a peacock (or some other such bird)in front of a coke machine beautifully. The processing, for me, is a bit heavy as you reach the bottom, but parts of that I also really like, such as how grungy and dirty the floor looks; to achieve this but keep a bit more detail in the tail would be my preference, but I don't know if it's doable, and "cleaning up" the floor might "ruin" the shot to my eye. I love the papery, delicate feeling the processing gives the machine, and one thing that caught my eye was the almost crystal clear "thank you" near the coin slot. For the "story" or reaction I had to this, that clearness works really well in an ironic (or more likely quasi-ironic) sort of way. Neat shot, right place, right time. |
