albertwang Posted August 11, 2006 Share #2 Posted August 11, 2006 Nice concept although I think that a barrel sticking out from the lower left hand corner would have heightened the tension quite a bit! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

andybarton Posted August 13, 2006 Share #6 Posted August 13, 2006 We went to Salt's Mill about a year ago, after The Today Programme visited for an OB on a Saturday morning. Very interesting place - thanks for the reminder. It's just outside Bradford (and the National Museum of Photography) and is on the Leeds - Liverpool Canal. One of those "model" towns, built by a philanthropic mill owner. Worth a trip. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmr Posted August 14, 2006 Author Share #7 Posted August 14, 2006 Advertisement (gone after registration) Guys, thanks for the comments guys, it's appreciated. Andy's right, it is worth the trip. The village is very photogenic and the mill contains a number of good shops. There's a particularly fine one called "The Home" selling modern furniture - proper Barcelona chairs, limited edition Eames chairs etc. - the restaurant is busy and sells excellent food.

robert_parker Posted August 14, 2006 Share #8 Posted August 14, 2006 John A wickedly detailed and colourful shot - all of which almost desguised the acutly sharp perception necessary to see it in the first place. The colour has moved Bradford to somewhere between India and East LA Really striking. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

modschiedler Posted August 14, 2006 Share #11 Posted August 14, 2006 somehow it reminds me of a Manet painting … Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
albertwang Posted August 14, 2006 Share #12 Posted August 14, 2006 Manet.... wot? It's way too contrasty for a Manet. Maybe Fauve instead! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
modschiedler Posted August 14, 2006 Share #13 Posted August 14, 2006 speaking of mood, atmosphere and composition, I still associate Manet (hey, just an idea) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

abrewer Posted August 15, 2006 Share #19 Posted August 15, 2006 Wonderful colors and lines John! The well-positioned bartender, and his stare, really hold my attention. Manet? Maybe the intense, rich black is suggestive...a la "The Piper" and "Dead Toreador". He was among the vanguard of Impressionist painting, ridiculed for his efforts to further the new technical tools of the time (as were his Impressionist peers): "One of Manet's most significant works is "Luncheon on the Grass," which depicts a nude model in the presence of two men. This piece provoked and offended the critics of the time who claimed it was pornographic and immoral. The Salon, one of the most influential galleries in Paris at the time, refused to exhibit the work, but it proved to be one of the pivotal works of art in the Salon des Refuges, a gallery whose specific reason for existence was to display the rejected works of leading artists. Many of the young Impressionists of the time followed Manet's lead and broke away from the traditional artistic styles of the past." From ArtFulcrum.com Thanks.

mgcd Posted August 16, 2006 Share #20 Posted August 16, 2006 John - very nice colours, exposure, also nicely composed. What did you shoot this with? I'm assuming it's with your DMR... Cheers, Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
