Matt Sutton from Sydney, Australiaelegant grant ! swedish simplicity almost. I love this. great grain. have you tried 35m in this camera? 15 Dec 2008 5:33am @Matt Sutton: thanks matt. no, i haven't. i notice lomo is now selling one specially adapted to fit 35mm. it might be fun to try rigging this one. i've done some of that with holgas. Gary from Cochise County, United StatesI really like the soft lines along the bottom of the wall. Good shot. 15 Dec 2008 5:38am Annie Viguié from Bordeaux, FranceBeautiful ! I love irregular black lines along the wall and the door and I love to, small lines white who divide into squares the dark rectangle in the top right of the photo . 15 Dec 2008 5:50am @Annie Viguié: thank you annie RHYS from United KingdomI like the flatness of this, the door on the left could almost be drawn onto the wall. 15 Dec 2008 6:24am Bill from Belton, United StatesThe simplicity does it here Grant. I agree the grain is a major addition to the image. 15 Dec 2008 6:53am cat from tel aviv, IsraelHow simple...but it's beautiful and very wintry too. I like the grainy feel as well, it gives it depth. And the sign anchors it in reality, not just an abstract. 15 Dec 2008 7:28am k@ from Paris, FranceVery simple, indeed, and great for this first ! (pure, let's say) 15 Dec 2008 8:50am sherri from Little Rock, Arkansas, United StatesWell, well....I see they really appreciate their volunteers. Good grief. My Grandma always used to say, "Never look a gift horse in the mouth". 15 Dec 2008 3:37pm @sherri: you can blame either my focusing or this infamously cheap camera... but it's "violators" who will be prosecuted. even grandmas hate violator :-) don from United StatesA simple, but effective shot of the ubiquitous "no parking" signs we have everywhere. Nice work. 15 Dec 2008 4:14pm Alejandro Caballero from Sant Boi de Llobregat, Barcelona, SpainMe encanta la textura de la pared por no hablar del encuadre y tu toque personal con la desaturacion, un fuerte abrazo. 15 Dec 2008 5:45pm Twelvebit from Victoria, United StatesInteresting. Don't know that I'd have pegged it as snow without the title. 15 Dec 2008 7:49pm paolo from Castelnuovo di Garfagnana, Italyi like to find the same tones on the snowy ground as well as on the painted wall. 15 Dec 2008 9:25pm Stephen Phillips from San Francisco, United StatesThat 'white bottom' gives this such a different feel. Nice. 15 Dec 2008 9:31pm michele from Canadaespecially like where the dirt on the wall meets the snow. makes me wonder if you know what you're looking for when you go out or if you just come across things and go ah ha that's it. 15 Dec 2008 10:58pm @michele: you're right - never know, just head out. this one was just a short walk from home though. ordinaryimages from Kentucky Bluegrass, United Statescolder than a concrete kiss. best...jerry 15 Dec 2008 11:07pm daina from New York, United StatesThe light has an eerie feel to it and the place does not feel quite real except for the sign that seems totally out of place on that wall. It is a very silent image and wonderfully seen. 16 Dec 2008 1:39am @daina: thank you daina dj.tigersprout from San Bruno, CA, United Stateshey mate! finally back and back in the saddle! hope you have been well? this is a wonderful choice of shot -- sort of like the 'middle' of everything... if that makes sense! ;) very industrial, very impersonal, and wonderfully flat! this could be 'constructivist' influenced if you were of Russian / eastern European heritage and lived at the turn of the century...? j/k lol!! faaabulously done and glad i am back and can catch up everything i missed while i was away! hope your holiday season is off to a great start! cheers and speak soon! :) 16 Dec 2008 2:43am @dj.tigersprout: good to hear from you dj. all's well here - the same for you i hope. JJ from Jersey City, United StatesA simple scene yet very effectively captured, the grain adds to the whole effect, awesome work 16 Dec 2008 7:28pm Lucca from Cologne, GermanyI like the balanced geometry and the simplicity in it. What a pity there is a loss of quality with AM3 in this photo. 16 Dec 2008 9:50pm @Lucca: thanks lucca, but i'm not sure how much was lost with this one. the lubitel isn't exactly known for it's lens... bluechameleon from Vancouver, CanadaNice one Grant...minimal and full of those wonderful lines I love so much with your images. 18 Dec 2008 9:49pm |
