A great shot rod, with lots of action. A busy shot, with lots of competing interest for the eyes.

Thanks B :-) It's just a newspaper stand selling magazines etc & the the bloke in sunglasses was trying to help the bloke in the wheelchair to get the magazine he wanted. I will have to think up a more exotic scenario for this picy to give it more impact:-)

I'm generally having a tough time in this challenge getting my brain to think of the theme in anything other than the obvious literal sense of clutter (e.g. a photo of a pile of junk or messy desk). But this photo _does_ indeed express the theme to me, somehow. how do you guys do it? I'm left studying the photo for answers to what's going on - I like it. - b.c.

Oopps Thanks Britt:-) Did you hear Tommy say world class Britt?..............I took this:-)
Rod 12-Oct-2007 08:22
Ah so a definite focal point can be tricky, things are getting very clear. Thanks Tommy:-)

I might have been looking for more generalized interest throughout the image, but this shot satisfies the requirements by providing a cluttered and full frame interest and detail. The diverting power of the expressions and pointed fingers directing us to the upper rt corner and beyond is offset by a wealth of framed details and just enough that survives of two framing figures to reclaim edge and corner interest bringing us back. An expansive and as you have said in another context, "world class" shot. -tv
