Where is Batman?
Posted by ila at October 30, 2004 05:06 AMHey, I love this shot...
However, a little constructive criticism... it would do more for me if it were cropped, just chop off much of the top part, I would crop it somewhere in that staircase, preferably so you remove the sky above it. Without that, the visual flow is very pleasing and all that extra info up there is removed.
Just my two cents. :-)

Posted by Jason Kotenko at October 30, 2004 05:06 AMReally, really cool. Just perfect light from the windows, but like Jason said, the top part is unneeded. So some cropping would make it even better. Think it is almost disturbing.

Posted by designguy at October 30, 2004 08:54 AMit would be funny if Casper flew near the window.
nice one. =)

Posted by Kevin at October 30, 2004 12:29 PMThe framing of the photo is just right in my opinion, it all works together to create a better reference for the scene. Looks like compression hurt the sky a little though.

It won't forgive,
It will sneak behind your back.
I agree with Userif, cropping it would take away from the interesting angle of the stair case, its architecture is really very cool-looking:)
Posted by Aaron at October 30, 2004 03:44 PMOh, and by the way Sam, there has obviously been a lot of controversy on the generic site.. What’s your opinion?
Posted by Aaron at October 30, 2004 03:47 PMI don't like the suggestion of cropping it. I like seeing the entire staircase.
I don't mind giving my opinion of the generic parody -- it's got boring after 2 minutes. His problem is with the comment section more than anything (he says so on his site). I think he's way off base.
Keep it up, Sam. I almost prefer not hearing what sam has to say. His viewers will defend him, cuz we, supposedly, are the real targets of parody.
Posted by matt at October 30, 2004 04:07 PMHoly Gotham, that's it, Batman. Thanks Sam.
