Incredible capture...love the power lines over this wonderful old structure. No mistaking the Holga appeal:-)

Holga shots have such a wonderful quality. The ironic contrast between the mystic, exotic remedies the shop sells and the brutalism of the city comes across for me in this shot. I like the lines as well, and the patterns they make.

Good thought-provoking composition -- something hopeful between the holistic sentiment and the bright sky, and then there is the sharp shadow and the less pleasant reality below.

I like this "up" view of the sign and the utilities which abound everywhere. The power lines actually add to the picture substantially. Nice composition.

Love the lines and their direction and curve. The shadows are a wonderful part of the composition (as is usually the case :}) And I also love the way the shadow cuts across the sign. Great angle too...

@daina: thanks daina. this is my favorite alley.
Howard F. from South Pasadena, Calif., United States
I like the angle and Holga- good old Holga never disappoint.

@Howard F.: thanks howard. i'm not sure i agree with you completely about the holga - it's a bit of a love/hate thing with holga and me...
JJ from Jersey City, United States
A wonderful Holga capture, love the contrast between the sign for natural healing, and the non natural elements, power lines, buildings etc, such a cool capture

@JJ: thanks jj

Beautifully disorganised, it's great. I think the building could do with some healing :-0

@Observing: it's been abused - a major fire a few years ago and businesses come and go

I really love this and you know my holga obsession and all the wonderful implications that I brings. The way the outside of this frame is slightly out of focus, the slight confusion...just a delight!

They sure do sell a lot there ;) Great intersecting lines.

@Will Williams: the lady who owns this place is nice. i go in occasionally for incense or a gift. there's a sale everyday - depending on color. one day all blue things are 10% off, etc.
Teresa from Mountain View, United States
Very nice. It feels a little dreamy, i think because of the blur in the lower right corner
