Description "All around me are familiar faces,
Worn out places,
Worn out faces,
Bright and early for the daily races,
Going nowhere,
Going nowhere,
Their tears are filling up their glasses,
No expression,
No expression,
Hide my head I wanna drown my sorrow,
No tomorrow,
No tomorrow,
And I find it kind of funny,
I find it kind of sad,
The dreams in which I'm dying are the best I've ever had,
I find it hard to tell you,
I find it hard to take,
When people run in circles,
It's a very very,
Mad world,
Mad world,
Children waiting for the day they feel good,
Happy birthday,
Happy birthday,
And I feel the way that every child should,
Sit and listen,
Sit and listen,
Went to school and I was very nervous,
No one knew me,
No one knew me,
Hello teacher tell me what's my lesson,
Look right through me,
Look right through me,
And I find it kind of funny,
I find it kind of sad,
The dreams in which I'm dying are the best I've ever had,
I find it hard to tell you,
I find it hard to take,
When people run in circles,
It's a very very,
Mad world,
Mad world,
Enlarging your world,
Mad world..."

I'm glad that one of my photos could cause such a strong emotional response, that is after all my goal. Whether its sad or happy the fact that you felt so moved is really great! Now if only I can keep taking photos that will cause others to feel something to

I'm sure you will- this picture is simply fantastic. I took a look at some of your other work, and I believe that the only thing that could make them better would be to couple them with a song. I always try to comment with a song that will help with the mood of photography. It helps, a lot

Thanks for the comment, I'm so glad to hear that you feel that way about my photography.

My goal is to elicit a strong emotional response when someone looks at my photos, I don't consider that gay and I don't think anyone should.

The b&w contrast is really intense and I like the reflections, but I would have straightened a little bit this shot

A lot of people have said I should straighten it a bit...so I did.

This picture makes me feel horrible... like the interior landscape of a person when they are traumatized. It's not completely gone, but cut off and damaged...

Kusou In reply to tetsuoshima [2007-01-31 16:10:16 +0000 UTC]

Well....at least the photo made you feel something, even if it wasn't a good feeling. Thats always a step toward the right direction with photography, getting people to feel emotions when they see your photos.

Very unique capture. You did a great job.
The only thing i see that may be amiss, is the bit of sky you can see in the upper right hand corner.
You may or may not have tried it, but i feel as though i'm falling when i look at the picture.

Raining-Love [2007-01-30 02:25:02 +0000 UTC]

This reminds me of a cabin my grandfather once owned that was on the edge of a lake.

Great song too. The way I see it, the photograph is of a place where people can escape from the "mad world" that we live in, but I'm not sure if that's how you meant it.

Kusou In reply to Raining-Love [2007-01-30 05:52:07 +0000 UTC]

I love your interpretation of the photo.

I like to think of it as a place of peace in your mind that you can always use to get away from everything else, where time stand still and only your thoughts matter.

I only heard the song later on TV when I saw the Gears of War trailer. I thought it went perfect with the photo but I didn't really know why.

Raining-Love In reply to Kusou [2007-01-30 23:08:10 +0000 UTC]

Haha, yeah I saw the song in that trailer also. I didn't think it really fit in there very well, but at the same time it made sense. The first time I heard it was in Donnie Darko, and then in an episode of CSI.
