Excellent photo man. You could make a funny matrix short movie in that alley. That would rock. Or a series of pictures with fake Neo.

I'm pretty sure I've photographed the same alley before. This is a nice shot, a little closer up than mine. You ought to go back with a model.

Zlatty In reply to xdavidfotox [2005-02-24 23:48:58 +0000 UTC]

yes sir, if i can get a model I can have a whole thing going on
the thing is that there was a car blocking the enterance so i had to sneak behind it ...

psyko In reply to ??? [2005-02-24 20:08:18 +0000 UTC]

this is a great picture man, its really well planned and thought out. in addition to that its not some cliche matrix picture (meaning 'oh look, i put on the matrix code and turned things green!') so its got a nice original feeling. really enhances the feel of everything.

i really did not plan on making this matrix like at all
it was all caused by me messing around with levels in psp9

facehead In reply to ??? [2005-02-24 18:52:37 +0000 UTC]

First impressions: It must suck to live in an alley, or an apartment overlooking one. And then my mind goes off on a tangeant thinking of Coming to America when Eddie Murphy rents that appartment that looks at a brick wall. The guy that rented the appartment introduced it (I think) as "ya... this place is a real shit hole." I think there was a chalk outline on the floor.

You invoked a memory for me with this, well done.

The colours in this are a good amount of sharpness. I am curious as to how you are doing with sharpening and your 20d.

I just noticed the broken plywood on the right. I like it.

The green is nice, but it doesn't seem to be greened around the top left window.

Neat shot

Zlatty In reply to facehead [2005-02-24 21:55:21 +0000 UTC]

The building on the right has people living in it, while the one on the left is a bar. The picture came out sharp, what can I say 20S ownz. I dont know why the top left window was acting up, seriously. Thank you so much on a critique, they are hard to come by, even though the little image is really noticable.

excellent color, its so weird how just a color tone can give such a normal place such a strong attitude!

You idiot.

The Matrix is a restauraunt in Akron, Ohio. If you 're too messy, or drop something on the floor, or undertip, or overtip, they lock the doors and keep you there until you've washed dishes, or mop the floor, or cook, or serve, until you've paid off the debt.

Oddly enough, if you can't pay, they just take your watch or something and attach a Polaroid with your name on the back. They've got dozens of 'em.

yeah ok ... thanks for giving me a useless comment that has nothing to do with a critique of the picture

Jon-Wood In reply to Zlatty [2005-02-24 18:53:34 +0000 UTC]

The Wachowskis stole the idea of being "trapped in the Matrix" from the restaurant. It's relevant. Really.

Seriously, why did you decide to level it that way? I like the composition, but most people don't look at an alley and associate it with the Matrix.

Zlatty In reply to Jon-Wood [2005-02-24 21:49:35 +0000 UTC]

....wasnt the matrix a comic book originally that just followed neo as he was hacking the matrix ?
i was messing with the level curves and then all of a sudden the image looked as if it was a screengrab from the matrix ...

Jon-Wood In reply to Zlatty [2005-02-24 23:27:40 +0000 UTC]

The Matrix is just a film. Comic books were made, but not until 2003, to go with the sequels. From what I saw of them, they were pretty good.

Most fans did.

Oh, sorry, that isn't right. Most fans stumbled out of the theatre, fell to their knees, tore their hair out, wore sackcloth, poured ashes on their heads, and screamed into the cold night "WHY?!? WHY HAS THIS TRAVESTY COME TO PASS?!? THERE IS NO GOD!! There is no God!!!"

Or so I hear.

No, ancedote. When I saw Reloaded on my cousin's DirecTV I sat there for about five minutes with my jaw hanging open before enunciating "The. Frick. Was. That?"
