Photo Forum / Film Photography / 35 mm / March 20055 Minutes in March
In light of Alan Browne's thread, I thought I would post a few images from my "Ugly" SI shoot. Yes, this was a bit of a protest shoot, but a lesson learned for me as well. Anyway, feel free to comment (like I could stop most of you). <g> http://www.pbase.com/walthanks/5_minutes_in_march  SignatureWalt Hanks > In light of Alan Browne's thread, I thought I would post a few images from > my "Ugly" SI shoot.

Anyway, feel free to comment (like I could stop > most of you). <g> > > http://www.pbase.com/walthanks/5_minutes_in_march My first comment when I saw the pictures submitted was that I was disappointed (see my post). Then, I realized that, although it is easy to come up with a shot that meets the mandate, it is impossible to come up with a single shot covers it completely. There is just too much ugliness these days, months, years...The ugliness is always there, no matter what. And there is no point in concentrating on it either. I didn't submit a shot because I didn't find one that was striking enough. I did find the Ken's "no guns" shot the most striking one among the shots that filled the mandate. Your shot is striking in another way though. It is striking because it makes a statement. An optimistic statement. >> In light of Alan Browne's thread, I thought I would post a few images >> from my "Ugly" SI shoot.

Thank you. That's what I was trying to convey. One of my personal value statements is that: " I would rather be optimistic and occasionally be disappointed, then pessimistic and always be right."
