Nice Austin, great ambiance.

Thanks guys. The light squares on the floor are what made it for me as well.

Laron,
Shot #1 is pretty cool; great building, mood, and you got the car tail lights; but #2 is too dark, at least on my screen.
Both, in fact, have a murkiness which, while not unpleasant (and certainly well-executed), might get in the way of communicating the image.
Perhaps too much underdevelopment?

That is, however, just my opinion.

[Laron]

thanks! you've got me, but actually not the development but the exposure time was too few... (I was reading 1sec instead of 1 min on my spotmeter... I was suspicious, but didnt think enough and dont have enough experience neither) then I thought Ill simply throw away these images when I discovered they might be interesting this way so I made them bw and reduced even more the exposure in the second one until we dont percept at all the main volumes. this way I ended up with some misterious light spots that we dont know how are connected... I found this interesting and even thought about making a series of images like this (Ill try multiple exposures too and experiment a bit..) but sure as this just happened and was not on purpouse originally, might not be that "visible" and straightforward, so I'll work on it and maybe there will be something interesting...

Laron,
Agreed that there is something there worth exploring; the first photo is excellent and quite promising in regards to furthering your manipulation effect.
The second one is just too dark, and that probably has more to do with what you're shooting rather than how you're shooting it.
I guess choice of subject is paramount here.
Good stuff.

[Laron]

Ari, thank you for your help/comments, I agree and I'll keep in mind for the next ones!

I love it
But I want one little teeny thing- the mortar joints to be really horizontal.
the tilt is really cool
But hey, that's just me
Not sure I'd crop the curb, but I might-
