How oddly captivating ...
Must be the minimal palet ...

reminds me of when i was a kid and we went to drop off the church's soup contribution for the soup kitchen in the seedy part of town. except the backside of the building was lined with bums.

For some reason reminds me of The Invaders [stalkeyes]

It's mysterious - where are the other dumpsters?

Were they kidnapped?

 

[Brian Moore]

Thanks, all.

Chris,...in the name of "art" I moved them all out of the way so that this one could be the star.

 

[Chris Dodkin]

Sneaky!

I keep coming back to this one Brian. It's a fantastic shot. Not only is the palette, grain and softness superb, but there is that lamp bent at an angle. All of the perspectives and angles are spot-on, then there's the lamp. Wonderful!

Thank you, Pete.

Sometimes you see something and you say to yourself, that's cool, I'll snap a fotie. And so you do. Then sometimes once you've had that fotie processed you'll say, there it is,...that fotie I thought was cool. But occasionally, there are special moments when some bloke with the eye of a hawk will observe something in that fotie you thought was cool that is so obvious and yet not seen by yourself that you say to yourself, "who am I,...how did I get here?" This is one of these moments, Hawkeye!

I never noticed the bloody lamp, dammit! [doh]

Thanks again, Pete!
