    Two Bodies...

    ...of work it seems. The people shots and the more abstract graphics shots with some overlap. I think they would be stronger if grouped rather than having the abstracts interspersed with the street shots. Use some of the combined shots like 'Plenty of Time' and 'Long bench' as transition pieces between the two groups.

    I think the street shots that have your obvious sense of humor/irony showing are the strongest (like Nosey and the die young shot). I don't think the half self portrait holds up with the rest.

    Don't take my comments too strongly as I have no experience with exhibits and such. I think you may be your own harshest critic as your work is all very strong. I think 'Nosey' would stand up well alongside all those classic photos that appeared on Life Magazines back page. ( if any of you young pups reading this don't understand this reference, you owe it to yourselves to get ahold of one of the books compiling these photos and take a look)

    Have fun with the exhibit, Gerry, it's well deserved.

    Irakly, Steve (anotherview) and Chunk thanks for your selections. It is interesting everyone likes a common group of photos and then the opinions on the rest are very different. BTW Chunk I always looked forward to the last page in Life magazine. I think it was called "miscellaneous"and usually had amusing photos. First page I would turn to.

    I just bought these two books that I found in a google search that I did while writing the earlier response.

    I'd like to thank everyone who took the time to look at my photos and make comments and those who sent me emails.
