I really like this one. I think you did well on the balance. What steps do you do when processing your images? Through C1 Pro and Photoshop. Do you do all your processing in C1, or do you do all your alterations in Photoshop? What settings do you usually play with in C1?

To be honest I am quite happy this is the last of the "statue serie". I do not like very much this shots... they look like to much, uhm, constructed (dunno if this word makes sense in english). I mean, a statue on the sea it's already something weird, to easy to make a photo. I follow you everyday and normally when I open chromasia in the morning i just say "WOW!", in these days I just think "so what".
Sorry for this criticism coming from a wannabe photographer, but you know, now you have fans and this is a responsibility. . .

I like the stormy feel of the picture. I think it'd be better without the statue, mind you. Though... I do sort of like the 'abstractedness' of the statue.

This one's my favourite of the series.
Really nice one, I don't think it would have this percussion without this extra bit of post-processing. It looks OK to me.
That would look good on a CD album I think :)

My favorite of the three.

Like the first shot in this set, (and as you've intimated) the flash is just a touch too strong for my taste, but that said, I really like the water and the hairline of land on the horizon.

I think you are quite right about the flash imbalance. It was quite hard to get the right balance on the day, as the atmosphere had a blue colour prevailing because of the clouds, and the otherwise iron statues were seeming to be of a dusty dark colour.

I guess this picture goes a long way in capturing a different colour, perhaps closer to Gormley's idea, but at the expense of a fairly obvious flash use.

My favorite of the three. Like a burning man.

My favorite of the 3.
Did you shooted the flash mounted on the camera or in your hand?

Love your work. hated hated hated this series.

Like others, I was a touch cool to the subject, although I do like the artist's concept and execution, wish I could see it in person (thanx for the link). Your technical abilities to capture the images were outstanding, as always, even when not quite what you were working toward.

The latter image had an effect that I name the "Wooden Indian". So many of the wooden Indians that used to grace trading posts and other merchantile establishments in the West, had a common occurence created by the relaxed hand, a penile appurtenance.

You don't usually notice it in real life so much because your brain sees in 3-D. But reduced to 2-D ... well, that's a different image.

I don't think it's close between thsis one and the other three - I think this is clearly the best picture, though also the most ambiguous.

Nice image. His nipples seems to have gone hard by the cold ;) Personally I liked yesterday's image the most among all three.

taking pictures of art is bordering on kitsch. that is one of the reasons I haven't liked this series at all.

I liked #1 best, but this one is a close second. There's something slightly spooky about all of them. Almost reminds me of a sci fi movie (if I didn't know what they actually were...)

This feels the most "epic" of the series to me, as if it is part of a much grander story than a fleeting snapshot moment. he crazy texture on the fgure is what is most striking about it. i spent a long time looking at this one. Thanks!

Just a great shot..

lovin it

wow... i first looked it was real person covered with mud. anyway its a good shot!

Cool, although the flash does look pretty obvious though. I wish i had remembered my flash that night, at least then i could have taken some pictures other than silouettes.

In one word, GREAT !

I prefer yesterdays to todays. I like that yesterdays almost looked like a real person. But the lighting and colouring are great. I guess I'm not a fan of the rust.

Brilliant!

I must learn to do post-processing editing - it just sems so time consuming - but the results are worth it!

I loathe to disagree with those who have more experience with art than I probably will ever have but
"...taking pictures of art is bordering on kitsch"
Well I dont think it is an inferior copy of an existing style, nor do I consider this to be sentimental.
I do consider it to be a well framed picture, capturing a view of a sculpture I would otherwise never even have known about.

WOW! This looks really cool! A scary alien on the beach! Good job :)
