January 6 2005:
Reality Check


We may all admire the art of advertising with its glamour and gloss, but this dejected young woman found this phone box to be useless. Except of course as an advertising booth.

Photoshop:
Cropped and Resized
Some cloning
Some desaturation
Framed using # F2EEEE


On January 6 last year; ‘Sweet and Golden’

Canon EOS 300D Digital Rebel
1/160s f/6.3 at 21.0mm iso800 full exif

other sizes: small medium large original auto

Great street shot, Ray. Wonderful work. (Did you view it in b&w as well?)
Guest 08-Jan-2005 05:43
I love the contrast, too. Seems like two worlds.

Love how the ad's content matches the girl's expression. Clever!
PS: I can't help admiring the pun in the ad's text, the copywriter that I have been...

Yes indeed! Reality tends to slap us all in the face from time to time. I would say even more for these models when they wake up without make-up on in the morning... :-D
