The Individualby ~se55

Photography / Other

Do you feel like a person with no equal... or perhaps a person that stands out in the crowd? Do you feel like your surrounded by the norm? Are you the individual?

3 in this Series:

The Individual
The Outcast
Surrounded

~Alter8Ego Apr 17, 2004

Any filtration, refining and cultivation are the variables of norm. Civilization is a norm. Polite conduct is a norm. To remain an individual, one must sneak his way around and make a least damage balance out of pracitcing and obeying to each one.

Very pleased with the soft lighting. I would have only taken a different shoot angle approach, by perhaps positioning the coca-cola can ontop of an elevated platform , thus allowing for the camera to settle at it's base, and shoot a very monumental type feel composition, with a slightly distorted proportions of perspective... foreshortening and all that jazz... and of course the Mountaindew fortification gleeming menacingly from the background.

Altho I have to admit this gives it that "trapped, no escape" atmosphere that conveys pretty well how the impulse of majority crushes and asimilates the indiviual.

I'm aware that this is a series... very interesting, and thoroughly expolored, concept.

i like the way the light peaks through the cans in this one..... how many days of soda cans is this?

~se55 Jan 4, 2004 Filmographer

and what should i do with the border miss smarty pants??? i think it just offsets the image from the standard dA background color :-P

~lady-maree Jan 4, 2004

the problem wiht hte boader isn't that it offests form standard DA colours..its that its to bland for hte picture....it sort of drags its potenical down..if you had a small white line going aroudn the first inside mayebe it would look better..and if you pit he wording to the side and actually on the picture and got rid of the small black space at he bottom...

..not hat i spend much time looking over boarders or anything...its a great picture..you jsut suck at boarder ^_~..lol..people won't take the picture serious ( as serious as it can be) if the boarder doenst' fit...

..experiment a little...try and make it..for lack of a better word..classy 6_~..

keep up your great work thoguh...cause not only are you sexy but talented...a catch in other words 6_^
