I apologize for posting so many images lately. I've finally been going through some old stuff and, well.............here's another one.

I'll slow down now, I promise :wink:

The photo has a couple of interesting points to it, one being the nuke shelter sign. I have not seen one of those for quite sometime.

Good eye....interesting shot.

I like it... I wonder how it would be if cropped from the top to the top of the sign to make it a panaroma ending with the guy on the right side. Just curious.

no need to slow down, we like new shots thats why we are here

For the viewing pleasure of the mysteryscribe...........................................

Edit: I dunno, I think I like the textury glass blocks above the sign too much to lose 'em if I were to print.

Thanks to everyone

Well, I hear you like the textury aspect of the glass blocks, but the photo "speaks" more as the cropped version you made for mysteryscribe's viewing pleasure only (oh, and I looked at it :shock: Argh!).

I think it has more drama cropped, but like terri says to me when we disagree its YOUR image lol.

I really like this shot, the tones are great. I like both versions for different reasons.

Wow this is strangely appealing

mysteryscribe · May 21, 2006

Most likely it is more haunting than simply appealing. Not to many of us stop to look at this kind of scene except in a photo or the nightly news. It makes us uncomforatable... Just an opinion...

crawdaddio · May 21, 2006

Ok, I've come around. I do like the crop better.

Thanx again, I'm glad y'all like it

mysteryscribe · May 21, 2006

I am trying to find a way to phrase this so I dont come off like I think I know ANYTHING at all. This is a repeat of what a painter I knew thirty year ago told me. Please remember it was only her opinion as well.. Sometimes you need to step back and see what you are really trying to say and get rid of the distractions. That is the only difference. It was your vision that found a shot worth the effort not any one of us It is we who should thank you.

Nah I meant what I said... It's appealing to me, the darkside forum is haunting
