the diagonal branch, the houses, the red on the sign and the roofs- really awesome shot! the colours remind me of old faded looney toons type tee shirts from the 90s. the kind everyone seems to be wearing in 90s family photo albums

awesome focus on the sign. i love how the colours sort of blend in with each other if you get me.

This one struck me - probably because of my "personal preference", what I love here is the sign and how you can't see it whole, the number's cut up, so to say. It wouldn't be the same if you could see the whole sign in the photo.

And in general, I really like polaroids. They're fantasy-like, but with an obvious and very big dose of reality (something like American Beauty, when I think about it. The same kind of prettiness and you know, "it". The special thing). Like small windows through which you look at a small portion of what the photographer is showing you, and it wouldn't be the same if the photo were a normal one, if you could see more. It lives on its own a little ...

I wish I could use more technical lingo when I comment on people's work, but I don't know as much about the tehnical bits as I know about telling you what I see, you'll have to stick with it


I have a feeling you did a good job with this, see I'm not wrong with the faith I give

Thankyouu This is probably the best comment I have recieved, and I'm so glad you like it.
This one struck out to me too, you know what it is even though things are cut off. It's pretty normal looking, but not totally normal looking and there's something special about it to me.
Thankyou once again
