i like the yellow tape image; the man with the book is a nice portrait
and brings up for me the concept of inward/outward; the chicken feet
are a bit ominous
i am very distracted by the titles, and while there are good
_portrayals_ of graffiti in context, few of them satisfy me, perhaps
because i often struggle with the same subjects in my photography
The second one, called "Night at the office" speaks to me more than any
of the others. LIke the colors, light, geometry.
- but I agree with Steve about titles.. except for recording a location
or to state what something is that isn't obvious to everyone ("Great
Blue Heron" instead of "Tall Bird", for instance) Or sometiems for
extra comic effect or in a subject line to make ya look... but if
you are looking at the photo I often find them distracting.
