Waiting For The Apocalypse

Icky artifacts on the smaller version. I did not see them on my upload, so it must be due to compression and the high contrast. Looks better large.

I like it. I'm wondering about these mannequins. Is this some sort of art project Jenna?

Hi Anthony,

 

Art Project? No, but it may turn into one!!! I never go out specifically looking for mannequins, but when I find them I often come up with interesting compositions so I shoot away.

 

 

Great idea but I'm not sure about composition. In my opinion the left side of image is too heavy.

I like it! BK

Well done!

And you are doing Mannequins . . . we all have our favorites that we do well or that interest us . . . and sometimes we move on. In thumbnail you can't tell this is a mannequin, and I don't care too much, except I'm curious if it's a pure 'street' shot, impromptu and all, or whether it's a 'set-up' shot where you moved the mannequin . . .

 

Inquiringly.

Hi John,

 

I do have a thing for mannequins, but they are all found objects--nothing is moved or set up. I have about 10-12 in my folders and many more I've never posted. This one was actually sitting atop a building. I'll most likely do a presentation of my mannequin shots soon, but right now I've been busy working on my first documentary series so I have not been active on PN for a couple of weeks. Hopefully in a week or so I'll have more time to browse and comment, but right now I'm trying to complete enough of that series so I can enter it into an upcoming contest.

 

Thanks again!
