Artist's Comments

Just to complete this bizarre little scene.. this guy in the wheelchair used his feet walking along the ground propelling himself backwards :) I kinda wish the bush wasnt so central, but I was in a tight space.....Still, there is some kind of surreal quality to this shot in my mind:)

great shot. it is a bit surreal. you captured a kind of cultural landscape. is it the bright sun that gives you so much saturation? it's amazing. it's ok to have the tree in the centre because the man in the wheelchair offsets it. he really makes the picture and makes it special. it's random and makes you wonder.

I can understand where you are coming from with wishing the bush wasn't so central but we can't always get what we want - you've really made the most of this though as I love that he adds a bit of society to this photo. The backdrop is amazing and with the colours that came out, especially of the bricks... I just love it. Interesting advertising. I do really like this though - very interesting shot :)

Decide what you want, and then focus upon it. For it is through focusing upon it that you will attract it. That is the process of creating.

Dya know what, that is really cool. I know what you mean about the tree though.

The first thing I thought when I saw this shot was 'That would be great in b+w'. IMO its not the colour in the shot that is cool it's the objects.

Anyway, good job buddy

I think perhaps it's the shadows that make it look odd - the shadow under the tree, in particular. Because there's no treetrunk in the shadow! It's just so unexpected...

you won't need the signs in colour, they'll stand out against the brickwork ;)

Yeah.. I thought that, but I think the trunk shadow got lost in the bush shadow as the sun was almost directly above it, if you follow me:) Thanks soooooooooooo much for looking and commenting:)
