Composing a Photo

MEMORY LANEI saw this really cool photo series.  Each is a composite picture of a particular place in New York.

Here's the link: Babel Tales

It's so neat that he take tens or hundreds of pictures to get these few that he can divine a theme from.

POSING POSERS
I especially like these picture taking and posing shots.  It's funny that this place is always (or often enough) somewhere where so many people take pictures.  And looking at people posing in such varied ways without the photographer visible is creepy and hilarious.



And then everyone is flying!
EXIGENT STATE
So funny.

Also the world of children:
JUVENILE BLISS
Lord of the Flies.  AHH!

Anyway, thought it was interesting enough to share.  So enjoy!

  1. I really enjoyed the picture of everyone in Times Square taking pictures. That one somehow stood out to me more than the other ones. Like the world somehow stopped and these people happened to be in the same time, at the same time, doing the same thing.

    Lovely set of photos though! <3

  2. Lord of the Flies? I've never read the book, but what I can gather from the film is "OMG! Piggie dies?" Very cool, but they are not all at the same place?

  3. Lord of the Flies is about a group of kids stuck on an island and it's about the nature of people (does nature make us good or society? which makes us bad?), but I haven't read it either.

    And no, they aren't all in the same place. I think if you go to the site it tells you where it is exactly.

  4. I don't really like the Lord of the Flies. It's kind of depressing. It's like saying that without society, humans go apeshit. Or maybe just kids because they're so impressionable. And hate rules.

    Either way, it gives us something to think about, but it's depressing to think about. LOL.
