I was trying to come up with an original idea for this photography challenge when I stumbled across this scene. I was waking through The Rocks in Sydney and found this store which takes has costumes and allows you to dress up and have antique photos taken on these cameras in my photo. After asking nicely, the store attendant allowed me to take some photos. I got the concept right the first go, but my composition wasnt precisely what I wanted, and there was string and a few other things on the ground. So I went back later in the week for a re-shoot. This is what I came up with. There was little I could do about re-arranging the furtniture, and I could only remove the most obvious "debris". But it turned out quite well all things considered.
this is really nice... parts of this picture are over-exposed, but i still like it very much... the mood it sets is undeniable... maybe is it was a little darker it'd be even better... 8
This appears to have taken some preparation to accomplish (good effort). I find myself drawn to the floor though, (mainly because the debris and the white string) and would have prefered being directed more toward the great portraits. Neat pic!
