jayme 0 Posted October 26, 2004 Alec- I like this, it almost looks like a caricature. The sizes look so distorted. The inclusion of the green in the roof, door and shadow on the jail make this very artistically balanced. Nice job! Very unique. Link to comment
alecee 0 Posted October 26, 2004 Thanks guys. Yes Jayme, come to think of it - I can imagine Yosemite Sam coming out from the jail with both guns blazing! Well? I could have pasted in his image or maybe Bugs Bunny and Elmer Fudd. LOL! ^_^ Link to comment
jayme 0 Posted October 26, 2004 What's up Doc?! LOL Or maybe the Road Runner! Beep, Beep! Link to comment
wim.ipenburg 0 Posted October 26, 2004 I'm WILD of it! Alec, you deserve more sevens!!!!!!!!!!! Link to comment
Guest Guest Posted October 27, 2004 Love the way you have captured the shadows in this shot. By filtering the sky with your sepia effect it appears to have accenuated the shadows in this exposure. Beautiful graduation of light in the sky from left background to right foreground - polariser must have worked well here. Link to comment
afterthoughts 0 Posted October 28, 2004 Outstanding. This image doesn't look real but I know it is. Link to comment
kslonaker 0 Posted October 28, 2004 Looks like a hand-tinted b&w image from the old days. Very cool - I like it, Alec! Link to comment
Bilal Zaheer 0 Posted October 28, 2004 you got yourself another winner Alec. Congrats! caught it from just the right angle. Link to comment
jmcconnell2 0 Posted October 28, 2004 Is this place for real? I really, REALLY, like this pic.7/7 Link to comment
alecee 0 Posted October 28, 2004 Thanks guys. Honest to God, this image is taken as it is at 75mm and it looks cartoonish because they are fun-houses at the front of Virgin Trading Store. Don't they look good? Especially in Sepia tone. I didn't include the Disney cartoons as I'm not sure if it's an offence on their copyright laws. LOL! Link to comment
sean_daniel 0 Posted October 28, 2004 I really like the shot, the colours are amazing, I still find it hard to believe that it wasn't manipulated, can you provide more info on how you did this? Link to comment
pnital 36 Posted October 28, 2004 Very Original image Alec, looks like a miniature town....very nostalgic, and very well done Pnina Link to comment
russelld 0 Posted October 29, 2004 I was there with my wife and kids this spring. It didn't look that cool in real life. Great photo. A correction though, this place in Virgin, Utah, not Nevada. Link to comment
alecee 0 Posted October 29, 2004 Thanks RD for the correction. Going through different states can be confusing. Here's the actual image unretouched. Link to comment
digitalsteve 0 Posted October 29, 2004 Here is a good case to show why manipulation can be very good for a picture. I probably wouldn't have given a second look if I had seen the color version first. Well done, your creative thinking took it from 4 originality to a solid 6+. I am not sure how the aesthetics could be improved on so 7 there......Regards Steve Link to comment
