Chad Fabry Posted February 10, 2015 Report Share Posted February 10, 2015 Of all the stuff you do, I like your gritty street scenes, bridges, graffiti and rooftops. Those things lend themselves to the photograph and contribute the the natural interest for you to work with. I started to like the hand pic for a second and then it felt contrived when I saw the skull. I like the (not love) the balloons- this type of photo, in my opinion, is what you do best. A perspective shot from a dirty hallway through an open door which frames a single wooden chair off-center on a stark wall. I can't decide if I find too much contrast in the third or if it's the yellow streak that bothers me. Edit: is the third one an interpretation of Munch's "Scream"?

Les Posted February 10, 2015 Report Share Posted February 10, 2015 Three - yellow distracts me. two - best of bunch and give the viewer a little pause. one - not my choice. The palm overwhelms it for me. Chad must be taking tips from Alana about art. I do agree with Chad that your "best work" is the gritty stuff.

Mike Lamb Posted February 10, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 10, 2015 Thanks all for comments. #1 is my hand with a pretty bad wound/infection that took 4 doctors and 3 months to figure out. I scraped and got some slivers in my palm in a crawl space and it got worse and worse. I got my right hand back around Christmas. Lesson: Always wear gloves! I took pictures of my hand about every week out of boredom and fascination. Click to Enlarge 46.88 KB Click to Enlarge 49.29 KB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Kogel Posted February 11, 2015 Report Share Posted February 11, 2015 Hey, thats some of your best work yet. [] Kidding aside, that looks nasty. Palm of the hand and a nasty infection. Lucky you healed up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Kogel Posted February 11, 2015 Report Share Posted February 11, 2015 What do you know about art, John? You're just a home inspector. I know a potential art gallery in a little New England hick town when I see one. [:-graduat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
