I was in front of them but both were so
drunk that they couldn't see me.

The position you stood of the figures was well planned and the dark figure against the light back ground and the reverse of the other is great

Wonderful character study ;-) I always love your b/w work, but prefer the color one this time. Both are great though! V.

Guest		22-Sep-2006 12:39
Agree with Galina...voted!

Galina Stepanova		21-Sep-2006 16:25
Genre portrait, characteristic to situation 'lost' expressions. I like the almost drawing effect you reached.

Guest		21-Sep-2006 14:12
Wow! I really like the color version much better. Great capture. Like something from a movie (they can't be real!). I love the way the guy in the back is just starting off into space. Brilliant! Vote!!

Guest		21-Sep-2006 11:25
sitting in the light of their dappling tree...the foregound gent reminds me of Al Pacino....I like how he is gazing blearily into his own world while his companion is expounding on his own visions to who knows who...

Ronny Van Eeckhoutte		21-Sep-2006 07:56
This is a poignant photo showing well an aspect of life not easy to show. You captured him with great emotion. I like it. :-)V

Hilarious - great street candid Chris.

Guest		19-Sep-2006 00:09
Wow...this is a superb image with fantastic treatment, IMHO one of your best Chris, huge vote on this one (even if the one guy is a Sean Penn lookalike, lol)

Cindi Smith		18-Sep-2006 23:41
Fantastic candid shot. Yeah, the guy on the right resembles Sean Penn. Very moving! V

Guest		18-Sep-2006 23:35
I must still be burned out with the film biz... The fella on the right has shades of Sean Penn. The guy on the left is driving them somewhere, if only in his mind. The blind leading the blind. and the bandaid will keep in all the pain. Great shot. v

jlm		18-Sep-2006 21:14
Genius !!

Kathy Pedersen		18-Sep-2006 21:10
I love the destaturation, almost as if a paining! Vote

Audrey Reid		18-Sep-2006 20:21
PERFECT :)The square crop works well too.

Audrey Reid		18-Sep-2006 19:36
On closer look, both their eyes are pretty spaced out - go, go, gone :) The contrasting background gives the 'pop'. Good urban capture Chris.

Jannik Lindquist		18-Sep-2006 19:31
Extremely captivating image! Peaceful and sad at the same time. GMV

QUERIDO		18-Sep-2006 17:14
absolutely terrific shot! VOTE

Guenter Eh		18-Sep-2006 17:11
This could be really an oil painting Chris! Amazing! In your special and magical processing treatment!

J. Scott Coile		18-Sep-2006 15:20
The partial desaturation is perfect for the mood of this image!

Dan Chusid		18-Sep-2006 15:02
Bet you were glad you were sober!

Shirley Wang		18-Sep-2006 14:50
Great work! looks like oil painting.

Guest		18-Sep-2006 14:05
Classic. The processing is great too.
