That photo makes me a little queasy!
I was wondering if you had to ask for permission to take this shot inside the store?
Posted by Stephanie at May 4, 2008 04:01 AMIm thinking of doing something like this, its just the part where they tell you get get out of the store that im not too confident about.
Posted by Sam at May 4, 2008 04:36 AMIt's amazing that all stores looks almost the same all over the world.
Posted by Wiosanna at May 4, 2008 08:21 AMsickening amount of choices. long live capitalism.

Posted by Deb at May 4, 2008 12:08 PMI like this one for a couple of reasons. 1) because it is a totally different kind of shot for you, and 2) because your title makes a cultural statement, which in my opinion makes photography stronger as a contemporary art form. Not to mention that it's cool perspective and the kind of shot that could have gotten you kicked out of the store! :)
Posted by Kimberly Way at May 4, 2008 03:10 PMThis shot reminds me of the scene in 'The Matrix' with the aisle full of weapons whizzing past.
Nice work.

I dont like shoping at all
but It was a nice shot
made me curious to go to a big store
for tresure
Clean, bright... and somehow scary.
Reminds me of something from a Kubrick film. He loved one point perspective.
You know, if you want to take shots in private properties, it's always a good idea to ask the person who's in charge. Ask nicely. Introduce yourself, and tell the person your intentions.
chances are, you'd have a better luck in getting the shot you want, without you getting kicked out (or be in any sort of trouble). Hey, they might cooperate with you!

My daughter is coming home from high school talking about green alternatives for much of this. I'm glad.
Good shot.
Posted by Joan at May 5, 2008 01:59 PMwhy you getting all worried about asking permission. you serious about getting into some sort of trouble where you are? dont like that sort of society...
Posted by santa at May 5, 2008 05:13 PManother gem. i love when photos do more than just look good.
Posted by Miguel at May 5, 2008 08:15 PMOh look.. Pantene's on sale!
Posted by jim at May 5, 2008 11:33 PMGreat image showing the immensity of consumerism and the over-saturation of choice in our lives.
Posted by eric kim at May 6, 2008 12:45 AMregarding all the talk about being kicked out....ive taken shots in stores plenty of times. 9 times out of ten, they dont even notice. other times, they'll just ask you to stop. ive never been kicked out and i can't imagine being kicked out of a store for taking pictures. thats ridiculous. asking permission will only increase your chances of not getting the shot and having someone watching your back in case you try.
Posted by jesse at May 7, 2008 10:40 AMNow I have my new 10-20mm super wide angle lens this shopping interior photograph is certainly something I will be trying but I don't think mine will ever be as good as this one
