I love how you can see the other arch way through the one in the foreground of the photo.

i can't really tell _why_ i like it... maybe it's the idea, that behind one door, there's always another... that's a....

it must have been a pain in the ass uploading this large pic with your slow connection but let me tell you: it was worth every second!!!!

I like the subject the colours are nice... I can't help thinking though that the subject, the door frame, needs more space. There needs something to lead the eye into the picture maybe more of the path in the foreground... maybe it's just me.. nicely exposed.

Ah... the joys of Guanajuato.
Those rusty textures look really nice.

Sidenote: what I really hate about going to places like this one or Real de Catorce is finding all the walls impregnated with grafitti. Shame on the people who do that.
Shame on them for detroying part of the world heritage.

crateimages [2004-02-18 17:28:34 +0000 UTC]

love the texture here...

I've seen a lot of your work, and I think it is very unique. You have an eye for catching great subject matter and you have the skills for translating that light into good film (or digital whatever the case may be). I would like to talk to you about signing as a contributing artist at (www.crateimages.com). We would sell some of your images (non-exclusively) and you'd get paid for every sale. I'm putting together a collection of talented artists for the site. It's kind of a grass roots thing where us photographers assert our own power --thing. I've had photos turned down by bigger companies like corbis, so why not start marketing my own (and others). Except we'll be selling unique, interesting, artistic images, not boring stock. If you would like to know more information you can visit the site (just to check it out) and then contact me from the "about" section by filling out the form.

keep up the great work,
chadwick
