Hey, thanks for stopping by. I wanted to comment on the images on your landing page -- really striking! They go beyond the "clever composition" shots that you see so often, and that give you a little tickle, like, "the fact that I can appreciate this composition means I'm a photographer." Yours are actually fresh and jump beyond cleverness. The cone w/ engine, the bridge... several excellent ones. Also kudos on the site design there, where you call roll around with the mouse wheel.
phew.. that's quite a disturbing image for me.. very powerful. takes me back to images of the industrial revolution but then with the resonance of present day life... mmmmm
Interesting image. I think there is a little too much going on here. THe eyes do not have a place to rest.

@Daniel: I understand what you are saying and have gone "back and forth" myself as to either cropping or cloning out some items (or both). However, it may also be the case that it tells more of a story and creates additional mystery and interest with more elements. Hard to say at this point.
I like it for exactly the reason Daniel doesn't. The image is startling and unexpected. The eye moves from the ghostly person to the rest of the image hunting for clues. Nothing definitive is found, adding even more to the mystery. It seems the person is in a robe. They shouldn't be in this place. They are descending, hesitantly. Fantastic image. One of my favorites of yours for sure.
Very intriguing and what a dark mystery! It's kept me captivated for some time now! Road barriers and caution signs. The person could be a mental patient in an industrial setting. You've really got my imagination going with this one!!! Excellent!
Its a cracker of a shot and its wonderfully titled. It certainly does possess that other worldly/dimension quality. The attire of the subject although blurry reminds me of my pajamas issued to me by the mental institution. only joking...or am I? I am i assure you (bangs head on desk in order to stop the voices). Very haunting.
