Decided suicide isn't something to mess with and recreate...EVEN THO my last photo didn't imply suicide. But oh welll. I like feeling the sadness. And eventually i plan to start my Vagrant photo project, in vegas...omg, they are amazing...some women are dressed up so nicely, but are homeless, and use all the money to dryclean their clothes (i used to go to school where a bunch hung out) amazing. When i get a better camera of course. but here is the boredom photo. shot with a piece of crap Kodak. :) ENJOY...the composition sucks, yes i know.

Emo- I don't see anything wrong with the composition, it's centered, which is perfect for this type of photo. The only thing i see wrong with it is your camera ! :D
I think its a cool photo, ( technical Difficulties aside) Maybe when you get a different camera, you can reshoot the phots that you have been posting? I would hope so, anyway.
This one is definitely worth it, The eyes pull me in and make me feel sadness. It's a hard thing to do, take a photo that makes people 'feel' ..
This could even be an album cover.. That look works for Courtney Love! lol.
Thats me :) just in case anyone was wondering lol and thank you clicker...i love your inspiration...but i must admit im running out of ideas...but i have an different idea i thought of today setting the vagrant aside...i want to do a mobster vegas thing...not sure what i mean by that...but...i have pages of ideas for it.
*for the photo* Do you think i should crop up to the bridge of the nose?

I like all thes e "ideas" you have floating around...i think execution is all taht needs(very little) work. I think your camera holds you back a bit...I started with a 2.0MP crappy point and shoot that seved me well because I took my time and avoided blurring and tried to make the most of it---so I take it back I should know better than to say it's the camera(slapping myself on the wrist)...I think a crop at right where your nostrils start....maybe play with brightness and sharpening a bit
keep the good ideas coming

Had a play in PS, hope you don't mind. It reminds me of Evanescene's (sp?) album cover, so this is my own take on it:

this is the crop I would like to see on it. I think it's an interesting idea and represents todays youth. I don't think the composition sucks at all. It's a bit haunting.

I autolevelled the original and then greyscaled it. I then cropped it. I increased the colour depth to RGB again and increased the contrast to about 30%/40%. I then used the red eye removal tutorial in PS CS to change the iris to blue and finally added a zoom radial blur centred on the eye.
Glad you like the result.
