The over exposure of the street REALLY doesn't go well with this...draws too much attention away from all of the detail, creating a focal point in the wrong part of the image. Burn the hell out of that. Other then that, it's a fairly nice shot, although the background is a little distracting. How do you get such good scans? Mine always come out like shit.

Oh, and there's a big hair on the negitive in the upper right hand corner.

Question is which one represents which? The older man can represent the tortoise because most people think that old people are slow. As they reach a part of their life when there isn't a need to rush around then they can take things at their own pace. Now the younger man rushes through life trying to get everything done as quickly as possible. He thinks the older man a slow fool and hurries on his way. It doesn't cross his mind that until later in life that he will become old and slow himself. So the tortoise will always win the race because the hare will become the tortoise.

Does that even make any sense?

I think I got side-tracked. I suppose in a way that can also relate to those who are wheelchair bound. Some people people can be cruel or ignorant of people who are forced to use wheelchairs. I think it's always the fear people have that they may end up becoming what they fear.

i wish the community was fueled by anime devations and religious debate. we can just burn those up into an coal oven and keep operational for eons. *r00t

Ach! I somehow didn't catch that during any of the process! I haven't learned how to dodging and burning in the darkroom yet, but a lot of my photos will be getting edited and resubmitted when I do. I don't want to muck with them in photoshop yet till I know I can do it the right way. I have a wierd hang up about that. But that hair.......I may just ps that out! lol! Thanks for the tips.

I agree with the overexposure, but otherwise this looks great.

(Very creative title, BTW. )

Reports of my demise have been greatly exaggerated.

Reports of _your_ demise have been premature, but accurate.

i agree about the title - i can completely see how you see that - too bad about the quality of the image

*baka-chan pretty much summed it up, but maybe it'd work in reverse... Wheelchairs are faster than people

Community before Commerce...

Dodgeing and burning are easy, and trust me - I know what it's like not to catch massive errors in the darkroom. As far as the area I told you to burn - don't do it in photoshop! It won't do anything because the data is simply not there, but it may be on the negitive. (the negitive has more dynamic range then the photo paper does, so you can get data back that didn't get printed.)
