 This is an interesting series because each image is less compelling than when they are viewed together.  They thread together in a coherent collection, somewhat romantic, but who says romanticism ain't art? ;-)

 This series is a work of compelling coherence.  Austere framing--angles, crops, negative spaces--luminous sparkles out of deep darkness, lonely, some that hint of elegiac thoughts, others clearly exuberant, but all suffused with an inner silence.

Ciao Francis,

A project of singles (again ;o) ) Damn you're good at that. As pictures they are all good, 'Intermezzo' is great and 'cry freedom' is a nice touch. As a project i'm not feeling it. I don't think the diversity of the shots here (B&W, Color, black frame, etc..) is the problem for that, so it has to be something else.
1. Does the slideshow tell me a story of people take the ferry over the Yangon river? Absolutley not my friend :o) Yes the river is present in 5 of the 7 shots, so yes there is something about that river. And i know we can read your perfect notes to make the story complete, but to me the notes should complement the story that is told by the pictures and here i have the feeling it's the other way around. Remember we are on Photoholik, the photo's should do the talking the notes give us some additional information or nice anecdotes or heck even a nice lyric works fine sometimes.
2. It's a very chronological subject. Point A---- take the ferry---- Point B. And yet you try to mix things up Tarrantino style. I think this doesn't work with only 7 shots, it's more confusing than that it does the story justice.
3. Only 7 shots! Are you kidding? I'm sure you have more than 7 shots to tell this thing. Lets devide this thing up in 3 chapters again. point A, the ferry and point B give us 4 shots in each chapter and we have ourselves a nice little project of 12 shots. now that would be something huh? hahaha

cheers man

Ciao Steve.

Strange idea, that a government decides an entire village must go due to the expanding industries in its neighbourhood. Your approach is pretty straight forward with moody, dirty black and whites, but BOY! do they tell the story of this ghosttown in the making. We see you tried to ironicly lighten things a bit up with a nice flower in the foreground, but then the background blew that feelig away again. Broken windows, empty houses and a godforsaken church.

Wonderful work.

Yeah! A very very intreresting projet. I don't like to much industrial projects, or graphic works about buildings,...but here you have done something very original and well done. I loke a lot how you have choice the compositions and the atmosphere that you brings. The lights and colours are really interestings, with a hight contrat. Finaly, the choice of the square works really well too. A complete projet man! I don't need to see the cars, I feel the feeling ;-)

Nice job,

Hasta la vista,

Javier

Dark Was The Night

Ciao Christopher.

This looks like a tiring and intensive project. At some points i had a slight feeling that it wants to much and leans to heavy on the dark side, if you know what i mean. But then the next picture makes up for it and clears the road for even more darkness. I guess that's what they call 'transition images'. Stretch now, your back is strong... is a great example of such an image it suddenly clears the dark, narrow almost claustofobic  feel of the previous images, just before it gets to much to handle. kuddo's for that...

Overal this project get without a doubt the full vote. It is daring, thoughtful and above all very well executed.

Great work   
cheers Jorrit

Siena yellow, Tuscany at large

Outstanding series, Luko. Siena is special.  Your  brilliant black and whites do justice to this archetypal Tuscany town.  When I visited Siena 9 years ago with family (which included two teenage kids!!), I had difficulty doing anything but husbandry.  Although I had two OM bodies in my bag and a video camera, they mostly remained in the bag.  A pity.   But these images bring back the exact atmosphere I had seen.  More at the photos...

hi Steve,

I agree with the comments of Sasa, this serie is marvelous.  The choice of panoramic is perfect, in this way you create the feeling of vastness.

Hi, Jay.  Overall a really competent and disciplined look at an event I certainly never imagined . . .but, I mean, of course.  Making and drinking fancy coffee is practically a First World pastime now, if not a quasi-religion.  I like the consistent use of high-con black and white.  Sometimes I feel I'm seeing too much of the guy in the noisy shirt.  But I guess that's the nature of the event.  I enjoyed learning about this ritual competition through your eyes.  Will you be covering the world championships as well?  Your camera must smell good after a day shooting in that venue, but I'd be so hopped up on caffeine by the end that I'm sure I wouldn't be able to take a single steady shot.  (PS.  It's always nice to see what equipment you used, if you feel like posting it with one or all of your shots in this series.)  Best, -Hugh
