November Photo Thread..

and finally this. . .

Statues outside Museé de Beaux Arts, Lille

Is one of the single, most scariest things that I have ever seen. It is freaking the shit out of me because it reminds me of that Doctor Who with the screaming statue things. Which now I'm in my 30's is the only Doctor Who I have seen since I was a boy that gave me the willies a little bit.


And she looks like the woman from Torchwood.

So freaking me the fuck out.. . please. . . someone. MAKE HER TURN AROUND

I've just got back from the park and uploaded a few fireworks shots:

[girasol]

yay! I love firework photos!

I haven't been to a single large/organized fireworks display this year! Haven't really felt like it, which is odd, as I love fireworks, I think I just didn't fancy dealing with huge crowds...

Our neighbours had their own fireworks display last night, and as we all share a public green space in front of our houses, they were letting them off at the front, so we all came out and watched them go off, which was nice.

[djbombscare]

Sorry, i don't have any firework pics! Another environmental portrait photo from me instead:

this is Carl, engineer and all round crazy pyro-maniac. Shot at an engineering workshop at a super secret loaction, out in the muddy wastelands of West Wiltshire. arrr...

e2a, cheers for your comments on the first pic stan

... I read the term as meaning a photograph of a person with relevance to their particular environment.

Don't mean to knock the shot - I like it lots. Just wondering how you interpret the term 'environmental portrait' in terms of a college course.

you're right, they're expecting a greater emphasis on the surrounding environment than your average portrait shot, so there's alot more to think about. That first pic (groundskeeper) was taken kinda off the cuff; i was meant to be working and he was grumpy so the time to get it right was pretty limited.
I'm still trying to get an overly decent place and person, where the environment in question can compliment the character of the subject. But it's a bitch to get right!
Here's some people I look up to in this area: pieter hugo (the hyena men,) wolfgang tillmans, nobuyashi arakai, steve mcurry of magnum.
I mean how about this for a working-environment photograph! jeez.

"we got told off for putting our hands down the cracks, but it was worth it And that's my son on the foreground."

Good pic Iemanja. Daft that you can't put your hand down - it's crying out for you to do that!

Here's one of my son looking fed up at having to come on a lakeside walk:



And here's one of a lakeside pond:

 

[kropotkin]

They are both wonderful images, big eejit. I usually think people's gratuitous shots of their kids are toss, but that one is a really great image!

Where is that? I see the UBC sign, but it doesn't look like Tenth.

41st, maybe?

 

[Johnny Canuck3]

12th and Main!

 

[cybertect]

Lovely colour in those pictures, Valve. It feels rather like slide film, especially the viaduct and railway stock yard shots
