Description
In a Woolworths shop (yes i take my camera everywhere
) i saw these two walls painted in the exit sign green lines. I took a few shots before the staff started looking at me suspiciously. I think people are intimidated by cameras

Hehe, every time I go to a Woolworths I am disappointed that there are no walls like this.
Damn you Sydney!

haha that's a terrible shame. I think this is the only Woollies i know of that has a wall like this. I haven't really checked the other ones i've been to, but it would be hard to miss a wall like this

Again, delicious green. i could stay in your gallery all day. i love to start at the beginning of someone's gallery and go through each deviation one by one to see how they've developed their style.
i know you probably have a million watchers, so you won't mind if i add myself to the list?
beautiful works. i look forward to seeing more.

Heheh, I get strange stares from people to when I take my pictures. Like the time I was standing in the middle of a parking lot, taking a picture of a huge pile of snow. >_>
Anyway, I really like it!

In Woolies?! That's rather bizarre. I was imagining car park or something equally obvious when I clicked on it it... but I wasn't expecting that! You have such a good eye for line and colour.

hahah i think people always look suspiciously at photographers. And one taking pics of the wall is very suspicious lol
nice abstract composition - stripes can be interesting!

I love this photograph... it's great how there's this really strong pattern, that's suddenly interupted and bent. It's also looks kind of 2 dimensional, which really adds to it I think. Very succesful composition and the green looks terrific

Simple, yet very bold. I love the green and white, though the area where the walls meet slightly messes with my eyes. *blink* But in a good way, of course.
Amazing what you can find when you take your camera everywhere!

holy pattern batman. yeah people are afraid of cameras especially girls i used to have great fun in colledge taking out the my camera and watching how girls are repeled away from it , thell dive under tables to avoid having there picture taken!

lol yes it's always fun seeing how people react 
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
most people are not aware what they look like , when they look in the mirror they pull the face they want to remember themselves as , so when they see a photo they realize they dont look like like what they would like to think, so they avoid having there photo taken so that they dont have the see the real them and can keep their imaginary perception of themselves.theres nothing wrong with that i suppose if it makes people more confident. its even funnier when they see themselves on video!! ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh is that what i 'really' look like! yes yes it is

Very nice composition. I like the way the white lines stand out against the deep green background and, particularly, how they fold at an angle. This really gives the image an additional appeal. Good job.

There was an exit sign just out of shot in this photo which i did include in another version of this shot. I thought it would add a bit of interest and a focal point but the lighting on it was terrible and it looked so plastic and cheap. I thought i'd stick to the abstract lines

oh that's looking really great i'd like to have my garage paint like that
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
people stare at me when i take pictures too... i keep telling myself that theyre just jealous of my skill
i love the way you framed the lines, great composition. and i love the green! good shot

Everyone with a camera is a terrorist planning a bombing or a criminal preparing for a robbery. It's a fact.
Nice shot.
