Reminds me of Aaron Siskind's abstract work...

No way dude - don't throw away your camera. You need to sell your camera for the cash to buy the pot...

Yawn-

 

Another derivative work executed by some wanna-be placing his equipment in the tripod holes of the masters. Dont you recall Ansel Adams Lassie on the Road to Santa Fe or William Henry Jacksons Rin Tin Tin Hits the Trail or perhaps even Henry Fox Talbots Scamp on a Gravel Path? More recently weve seen William Wegmans Man Ray Riding a Unicycle on Ventura Blvd. and dont forget James Nachtweys Refugee Poodle.

 

I do admire the display of photographic ability. Clifford is technically exquisite and a visual feast, but its been done before.

 

At first glance, I was thinking this was a bully and his victim great shot.

I love this image very different from the typical, stagnant bridal party shots. I love the texture of the cobblestones and the walls and fence, also a departure from the usual flower/bushes/trees. Would it be better if the guy in the background had his sunglasses off, or the vines in front of the groom and the woman on the right were removed, or if the brides expression were just a little more relaxed sure. But I wish I had a photograph just like this of my wife, my friends and me

Turn off the date stamp!!

James- don't worry about the ratings... some people just don't get it. I'm looking at your work and seeing someone who notices his surroundings and wants to document the world around him at the turn of a century. This shot would look very different from one taken 50, 75 or 100 years ago or from now. I'm glad someone made photographs like your's back then, and I believe others will appreciate them in the future as I do now.

Nice job Z! Of course, it would be better with a red motorcycle - I like red. And the number 7 should appear on the plate - it's my lucky number. Other than that, I love it.
