bosshogg 4 Posted February 20, 2008 You two following each other around now? Well thanks to both of you for landing here. Link to comment
jcpopper 0 Posted February 20, 2008 After the Wisconsin results, this is even more on point. I hope you kept your foot in the shot on purpose. It's a great touch -- and color coordinated as well. Regards... Link to comment
Jack McRitchie 150 Posted February 20, 2008 Christ, she's everywhere. Not for long though, I think. My type of picture (I did something similar with Japanese Prime Minister Koizumi. Link to comment
bosshogg 4 Posted February 20, 2008 This image did remind me of you. I'd have dedicated it to you, but I didn't think it was worthy enough. Link to comment
bosshogg 4 Posted February 20, 2008 Talk about synchronicity, I just came back here from commenting on your "Ghost Barn" and you were here. Link to comment
alight 0 Posted February 20, 2008 this is great. You should send this photo to her campaign office. (At least I hope that "she" is a female...really.) I'm not very fond of that weird dark thing in the bottom RH corner. Why did you leave it there? It doesn't do anything for the photo. If not were for the mysterious object, I'd give this photo 7 for the looks. Another cool thing would be a footprint on the piece of paper. Her face looks kinda like an alien rabbit.

bosshogg 4 Posted February 20, 2008 Thanks little buddy. I can't believe you didn't like my foot in the picture. It is like my foot is going to tromp on her. I also thought the cigarette butt added a nice touch. You need to come down to the states and vote for Obama. Then you can go back to the land of chewing gum emergency brakes. Link to comment
tonmestrom 4 Posted February 20, 2008 Where is Bill? I like it, good one. Still, although her chances are remote she could still win. Wonder if you do a follow up then? Regards, Ton Link to comment
dmo_galleries_chicago_phot 0 Posted February 20, 2008 If she wins, she can go from trash to graffiti. It's a big step up in the political world. Link to comment
bosshogg 4 Posted February 21, 2008 Only if I come across another interesting piece of trash will I be able to do a followup. But I'll keep my eyes open whether she wins or not. Link to comment
laurentlacoste 0 Posted February 21, 2008 Very good, David. The foot is a fine addition. Link to comment
gordonjb 10,860 Posted February 21, 2008 I disagree with Micheal about the shoe. I think the shoe and the cig. butt are crucial to the shot, without them we would be left with only that weird alien rabbit to look at. A friend of mine who does fact checking for a NYC newspaper, recently told me that Hillary always carries around a bottle of her own favourite hot sauce on the campaign trail. Link to comment
pnital 36 Posted February 21, 2008 Thats politic newspapers.... yesterday headlines , today's trash ( or wrapping fish in the market....;-)) I like the shoe as well. being a very bad photo of Hillary.... symbolic David ?...you are the prophet!...;-)) Link to comment
bosshogg 4 Posted February 21, 2008 Thanks guys. Glad we agree about the shoe and the butt for the most part. Actually, while I am not an enthusiastic supporter of Mrs. Clinton, the image was not meant with any particular malice. It was a found scene, and I just seized the moment for whatever it was worth. Gordon, what a description. I think I'm glad you don't know what I look like. :) And, yes, pnina, today's news and the media that carries it does rapidly morph into something entirely different.

alight 0 Posted February 21, 2008 the dark object (your foot) is too small to be able to clearly tell what it is. Maybe you could have positioned it over the paper to make it look like the foot is coming down on her. Cheers, Micheal Link to comment
janusz1 0 Posted February 21, 2008 its Rare... David goes direct... hahaha... guess just had to (?) I love it :) Link to comment
bosshogg 4 Posted February 22, 2008 I do wish I had made my foot a bit more prominent. Another thing I thought about doing is to put the shadow of a foot about to fall just to the left of my foot and just below the Hillary. Like the other foot was about to come down. Maybe that would have satisfied you. Link to comment
bosshogg 4 Posted February 22, 2008 Ah, so you like the direct approach. I don't know. I think I work better using circuitous imagery. Thanks for stopping by. Link to comment
jeffl7 0 Posted February 22, 2008 I'm odd. But from the thumbnail I thought Hillary had been printed on some promotional underpants. Then I thought: What a unique way to get your face out there. Now, I see it's just a newspaper. Nevertheless, foot, photo, and butt all are necessary. How the mighty have fallen (or are falling). Link to comment
