you really capture a feeling, an understanding of a physical place and what it means. I can smell this phone station. I have been "there". Not an accident that AT&T logo is in the photo.
Once again, the difference between our approach to the same subject is striking. You tell the stories offered by the bottom half of the phone, while tell a different tale, using just the top half ( Seehttp://www.pbase.com/pnd1/image/145749907 ) Your vertical features the tawdry side of Hollywood entertainment, and it underscores how outmoded technology has been converted to a trashcan and ashtray. In my horizontal approach, I feature similar themes but add the incongruity of an uneaten donut to the urban detritus that litters the scene.
