Description One of many Vancouver alleys. Such a waste of space if you ask me.

Really like the photo. I've also seen this alley being used in a tv show, so it's not a complete waste of space.

Hey love ! Haven't been around here in forever, probably even half the year i'd say.. I do not know what is up with me.. have lost lots of inspiration.. Done lots of commerical photography, but personal -- well not so much unfortunately... But anyways, stopped by today to see what I could see.. and I can see that your work has very much so improved (not that it was bad in the first place).. This piece caught my eye in particular, thanks for sharing hun !

Hope all is well in your life, and that your travels haev taken you to nice places
You take care!
Greets!

Very, very colourful; was this film or digital?
Well composed, they eye is drawn along to all the focal areas, and is certainly never disappointed.

Sweathog In reply to hesitation [2007-07-05 14:15:16 +0000 UTC]

Shot on what?
Any post-processing?
I'm just intrigued by the colours, I hope you don't mind me asking.

hesitation In reply to Sweathog [2007-07-05 14:53:45 +0000 UTC]

the colors are mostly due to the light and the fresh paint hehe
I shot it with a canon 350d with a 24-70 I think

Sweathog In reply to hesitation [2007-07-05 15:40:16 +0000 UTC]

Ok, so not much postprocessing then.
Glad to know good light still exists somewhere

That guy that said Sesame Street rang the same bell with me! And I thought Vancouver was a clean and pretty place!I like the way the building looms over the viewer... I want to run out the far end

Yeah, these were everywhere, and I didn't really understand their purpose.. But at least they're very photogenic, in my opinion! Great capture.. I really love the tones.

Vancouver is a very desolate city....I've never seen a city so "city-esque" considering the pollution and homeless population that roam its streets. Ironically, the other side of Robson street is an amazingly clean, upbeat urban metropolis...

mcismowski [2007-07-03 03:34:14 +0000 UTC]

It has almost a Sesame Street vibe, but with just a little bird instead of a big one.

I like the power lines and the colors. I kind of wish that the sky was either clear or overcast though.

Haha you and your alleys. I remember you stopping and having a look at a lot of alleys in downtown Toronto. I think I'm beginning to associate you to the word alley.

I love the color and the cluttered nature of this photo. It works so well. I suppose the best way to describe this is "organized chaos"...very well captured!
