I thought that this photo would fit in perfectly with the REM song Everybody Hurts.

I love that picture!!! - I would urge you to remove the green writing though. I think its distracting, put it below in the border or something. I beleive the picture has enough impact with them :)

oopps.. I mean "without them" - curse my fingers! ;)

I totally agree with Adrian here! The shot is awesome but man, that green! O_O

Like the concept! This song and the lyrics really go well with this shot! I agree with the comments about the text! An idea to better incorporate the words into the image might be to make it look as though the text was engraved/embossed into the wall! L8r! Joe

it's an incredible image...has quite an impact!!! for me, the green text takes away from your image though. Sure do love that song!!!

ok i'll rework this tonight...green was the only colour i could get to standout on the wall...i'll probably make the border larger and add the text to that...thanks for the input :))

Love the second image, without the green. That pic is such a wonderful capture that it would be self-explanatory, and open to several different interpretations. I think it's always fun to try to figure out a story behind an image. I'm a dork like that. :-D Fits the song title so well!

tibet2004uk ( ) posted Mon, 11 July 2005 at 12:18 PM

Ah yes!!! So much better indeed!! Excellent shot!

firestorm ( ) posted Mon, 11 July 2005 at 2:00 PM

hi :)) thanks for the comments. i guess all photos are open to interpretation when there is no other information available. a few seconds after i took the picture she picked her head up and didn't look so sad!

It may just be my connection here but I can only see the thumb for your corrected upload. I can tell from the teenie tiny pic that it looks much better without the green writing and I think the shot goes perfectly with the song. Great entry! J

Another good entry. But, perhaps because the song is special to my wife and me. Generally referred to "our song" around our house. I remember the first time I heard it was on a series of HBO specials where they put lipstck cameras in taxis in New York to capture the people who rode in taxis in the late night hours.
