| Andy Leach (RedAndy) Msg: #1 June 28th 2005 17:17:44 | Hi Ben, interesting place to be, is it still a functioning prison? With the wire and the bleak concrete there's a definite feeling of being trapped. My concern with the image is twofold: neither the building nor the wire are in focus - I think one needs to be for it to really work; the building isn't quite straight. I can see that that could add to the sense of being crushed/oppressed by it but I'm not sure that it works as it is. What an interesting place to see - you have more of the inside online anywhere? | |||||||||||||||||||||
| Ben Wouters (baw) Msg: #2 June 29th 2005 08:34:02 | Thanks for the remarks Andy. You're right about the angling to the right of the building. If i PP i'll correct that. The focus issue has me puzzling. To me the wall looks in focus, and also the wire when looking at a 100% crop. The tower is a bit soft. Could it be due the fact that Nikon doesn't do much in camera sharpening? The Robbeneiland prison isn't functional any more. Has become a major touristattraction, with former inmates as guides.
