The chair and mattress give the photo a nice sense of scale and the lighting is great.
Posted by jeremy at May 1, 2005 01:14 AMnice. i love the long strings of glowing lights...
Posted by kandi at May 1, 2005 01:25 AMwithout the office chair, you can't at first get the scale of the grey wall and loading dock sized doorway.. Or is the doorway normal and the chair small? Nice.
Posted by mike w at May 1, 2005 01:58 AMyou beat me to it. i've been wanting to take a picture of this place for a while. you've done a good job of it. be careful in those yonge/dundas allies. there's some shady characters back there.
Posted by Pramesh at May 1, 2005 02:03 AMnice one.. btw what are the yellow pieces meant to indicate?
Posted by aashish at May 1, 2005 02:14 AMWhat a place. I mean, who thought to string those lights. Brilliant. And cheery. I really like this photo.

Posted by Ayan at May 1, 2005 11:04 AMI walk through this alley every single day on my way to ryerson's image arts building. Every time they play horribly bad music.. it's definitly a shady place.

Posted by btezra at May 1, 2005 04:16 PMWonderful composition, which accentuates the scale of the scene.
Posted by Alexander at May 1, 2005 05:01 PMnice nice! but im confused -_- how big IS the chair? eyes are boggled
Posted by JL at May 1, 2005 11:13 PMa chair, a mattress, and a sign that says ROCKwell...either its a cheap motel or the person doing "business" stepped out for a coffee break...
Posted by dave at May 2, 2005 09:27 AMthis is a classic style "sam" shot that I have come to appreciate - well, i appreciated these shots the very first time i saw them from you. the luminance throughout and the colors are quite nice. all of the junk - chair, wood, etc. are a great part of this composition. i really like this!
Posted by Abe at May 3, 2005 02:33 PM... oh my! ... what is this place, ... it has my name on it??
Posted by Lynn R at May 3, 2005 06:34 PMwell, this is a clothing store. the yellow signs show the brands wich are sold there. the horrible music someone mentioned must be rap music because rocawear, phat farm or fubu are makeing hip hop clothing!
itīs a normal chait, compare it to the door on the right or the speaker box.
the yellow signs are clothing brands. they usually create hip hop clothing.
Posted by Jonas at May 4, 2005 05:43 PMThis is a great photo. You should submit it to www.streetmattress.com where it would certainly merit a "Mattress de Milo" award!
