Emily Ferguson - waiting at Logan
Tonality and composition for the monochrome image are spot on. A vision
of comfort in any airport is always welcoming. The fact that one chair
is empty throws it all off for me. But this is likely the
disproportionate amount of time I spend in airports. I suppose this
image speaks to the solitude of travel today. It's so easy to disconnect
yourself when in transit.
Lea Murphy - Bloch Museum interior detail, Kansas City
Nice abstract. Nice composition. Fullish range of tones in another
monochrome image for this week's gallery. For me it's too static...I'm
not getting anything from it.
Sherie Taylor - Venice Pier Sunset
Nice shot, I would have cloned out the green lens flare, though the
other ones are tolerable considering the angle. Venice Beach? This image
would have been helped by the addition of a junkie laid out in the wet sand.
Trevor Cunningham - rise of the planet
Rubbish.
Dan Mitchell - Cloisters
Durham? Well exposed. Not sure how the steps and the old-age-pensioner
were intended to fit in the image. I might have waited, god knows how
long, for the man with the cane to exit the image and moved forward
several feet to minimize interruption of location context...but that's
me. Does that even make sense? Unless you're making a new/old statement,
which I don't believe this image attempts, this seems random or rushed.
Bob McCulloch - Morning Fire
Whenever sunrises or sunsets are the subject, and the foreground is
included in the image, I cannot help but be reminded of how impossible
it is to capture such a moment of beauty.
John Palcewski - Darkroom/Bedroom 1998
Still life and fantasy...are photographers really so boring?
Andrew Davidhazy - White noise
Your note makes me think of the phrase "He's forgotten more ways to kill
a man than you can think of." I imagine it's nice to feel your images
stand on their own without explanation.
