I really liked: The kid diving with the blurry background, the one of the little girl sort of in the distance with the ship in the background, the kid looking through the fence, the kid outside 7-11 taken from a low angle - looks like you used some flash and still caught the ambient light in the sky and neon signs (I love mixing light sources), and girly with her thug-tattood boy in the pool. It all has a very "This is what summer is like in Boston, USA in 2006" feel. Good stuff. Oh and I disagree with Ian that your shot of the group of kids looks like a class photo - it's far more real than a school shot.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24503457.post-1154714362981027802006-08-04T12:59:00.000-05:002006-08-04T12:59:00.000-05:00I like the "DRUG" picture, and the 7-11 group shot...I like the "DRUG" picture, and the 7-11 group shot is great. It looks like one of those cheesy class pictures they make you take in school, but set somewhere that'll probably have significance for these kids... at least when they're older. :)Ianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04639361167011466330noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24503457.post-1154618950293750622006-08-03T10:29:00.000-05:002006-08-03T10:29:00.000-05:00cool shots. i loved the commentary, too. :) it'd b...cool shots. i loved the commentary, too. :) it'd be fun to see your take on other boston neighborhoods.wenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03405214739637253818noreply@blogger.com
