    Airport Series? - Holga...

    I have been doing way more travel than I thought I ever wanted to do this year, but it has made me think of doing a series at the airport. But I am wondering how to go about the logistics of getting in and all that.
    Anyway..
    So here is another from what I hope will be a series..

    Re: Airport Series? - Holga...

    Good series, and I like the certain "obscurity" that seems to be the compositions of these scenes. Your images are not the typical scenes we would expect to see in a series of this subject. They seem like bits and pieces of memories we all may have from being in an airport at some time in our lives. And along with your compositions, the Holga effect brings out the dreamy feel as well.
    My only nit with this shot is the silhouette that is right up front to the side. I would crop off the right side silhouette and crop from the top to maintain the aspect ratio. . .this also makes the whole image somewhat symetrical and a bit more deliberate.
    please do not edit and repost my photos

    YO..I hear ya on the travel, cramps your artistic style at times.

    I like your idea and I have thought of a series taken from the rear of the plane with all the heads, papers, heas-sets, mag and pillows, it is very interesting at times.

    I need a smaller camera to do this though, just don't feel like dragging out my slr's..??..

    Hope to see more from this series soon...(except that means you will be on the road)
