  • SkyFox

    This is killer, awesome tones and the contrast is just sick (sick where I live means so kick ass I cant even put it into words). For some reason… the paint flakes is what I love most, it makes it all come together.

    Congrats on this one!

    Wow! This is a brilliant image.. love your contrast and tones in this, the subtle blue and the texture of this whole shot really works well to add to that industrial feel.. love the composition and the way you are leaning on the edge of the frame.. that’s a great touch! Excellent self portrait!

    This Rock!!! I love this shot-not everyone can make a great shot of anything industrial and make it look great you did! however, when I first saw “69” I did get excited and thought I was actually going to see it..lol You rock girl and you know it

  • VisionaryImagist

    the “clanking” and “rattling” of metal against metal. The shrill cries of industry muted. well done again. I grew up in a heavy industrial city. enjoyed this piece.

  • marcusjohn

    marcusjohn

    Yep.. great work..great aged textures and colour across the wall, so much detail to look at IE the broken light, the glowing 96, your look/stance,the viking alarm bell (I think that’s what it is). Lovely, original work.

    fantastic shot again Birgitta – love the way you have pushed the ‘exposure boundary’ yet it is spot on for this image as it has created a wonderful starkness, highlighting the industrial nature of this shot – great, creative work!!! :)
