Perfect lighting and composition.

Once again, you and I take opposite roads to the same end in conveying the mood and meaning of this place. You show only five forlorn cabins (just as you showed only the eggs in the window at the Bagdad Cafe) to tell the story of this lonely, remote, desolate place. The colors are evocative, the sky is utterly bleak. Just as I chose the whole wall in my shot at the Bagdad Cafe, I went large (http://www.pbase.com/pnd1/image/56190474 ) and used distant headlights as a scale contrast to express my own feelings about this place. It will be interesting to see how the others in our workshop handled this shot.
