Artist's Comments

This is one of those cool artsy 'near down-town' spots, next to one of my favorite breakfast spots called 'Matt's Big Breakfast'... if you've seen Diner's Drive Ins and Dives you may have seen it on that show.

Oh yeah... I have no idea what "Community Burn Platform" means, any ideas?

Not sure if I'll keep or scrap. Something about the art on the building I just like... let me know? Cheers everyone!

The tones and the distortion immediately signals this as a Shawn shot, it has your fingerprint all over it and its good to have a style that distinguishes you from the masses.

What do I like about this, I have a love of urban scenes and more so graffiti, odd as I take little shots of this myself.

The lines work for me as you have got it spot on in regards to the subject, the large poster at the end of the female screaming frames this well and leads your eye along the side to the vanishing point.

Although not a great distance the distortions pulls the vanishing point further along than it should be and that's a bonus on this shot.
The only slight niggle I have and it is slight is the crop at the bottom, I would have liked to see the foliage continue to complete the image.

All in all a great shot :)

Sweet mother of god, perspective on this is just to die for isn't it? I say that with a lot of your photos but you do have an excellent sense of perspective in all of your photos. I think this works more than others though because I can really link with the setting - because you've made an ordinary place extra ordinary. And the colours really attract me, so this was a really great setting to take this pic :).

No idea... a place for hooded youths to go so that they can graffiti there instead of all over small innocent old ladies houses?

Thanks so much!!! I'm really glad you like the perspective and colors, I tried to make sure I didn't mute the colors too much like I sometimes do. And yeah... good question; I'm not sure exactly what it is... there are a lot of artsy type places around there, including a really funky psychic/metaphysical store type place, hehe. :D

Great shot indeed, Would have worked better including More on the sides though, I think Mike said it as well, and more foliage. I am currently doing a project for my BVA on graf art, its amazing how it sucks you in.,

Graffiti here looks stunning, great contrast as well. Sky looks surreal.

Great Shot. Especially from the angle taken. The graffitti stands out perfectly. Well Done!
