bouchto Offline Upload & Sell: Off p.1 #3 · #347 Death of a Salesman... Very powerful and moving entry. Super sharp, crisp contrast, perfect framing and great conversion or was it shot in b&W? Best of luck, Tom Jun 01, 2009 at 09:22 PM

Canon ball Offline Upload & Sell: Off p.1 #5 · #347 Death of a Salesman... I like this shot. It helps knowing the subject matter, but you've captured the mood well. The composition is nicely claustrophobic, overbearing. Well done! Jun 01, 2009 at 10:32 PM

Best of luck, Tom Thanks Tom, I did the conversion with Photoshop trying to get the look of classic black and white photography… Jun 01, 2009 at 11:37 PM

The composition is nicely claustrophobic, overbearing. Well done! I’m so glad you appreciate the composition! It was carefully planned to accentuate his desperation and the sadness of not finding anything at “the end of the road”… Jun 01, 2009 at 11:39 PM

Bill Sutherland Offline Upload & Sell: On p.1 #10 · #347 Death of a Salesman... Evokes the era with great skill and props. Bet that's a double breasted suit he's wearing as well. Jun 02, 2009 at 01:32 AM

You’re absolutely correct Bill, my model was wearing an old double-breasted jacket. Thank you… Jun 02, 2009 at 10:09 PM

timwardlaw Offline Upload & Sell: On p.1 #14 · #347 Death of a Salesman... jban99, I can really feel the emotion in this shot. The B&W delivers the mood spot on. I even feel a touch sorry for the fellow. The image is crisp and the composition is perfect. Well done! Jun 03, 2009 at 05:36 AM

Yakim Peled Offline Dedicated FM Upload & Sell: On p.1 #15 · #347 Death of a Salesman... What can I say that has not been said. Nothing..... Happy shooting, Yakim. Jun 04, 2009 at 10:02 AM

Carolyn1250 Offline Upload & Sell: Off p.1 #16 · #347 Death of a Salesman... Wow, awesome! Jun 04, 2009 at 04:28 PM

sparkplug Offline Upload & Sell: Off p.1 #17 · #347 Death of a Salesman... very moving and emotionally touchy, talks volumes even with out the description. His bags don't look heavy but the weight carried on his shoulders is enormous, head hanging dejected, the path he is walking doesn't look he is going some where but show he is getting away from some place. Great composition! Jun 04, 2009 at 04:40 PM

jban99 Offline Upload & Sell: Off p.1 #18 · #347 Death of a Salesman... Thank you very much for the nice comments, Nick, James, Tim, Yakim, Carolyn and Spark, sorry for the delayed response! We tried very hard to recreate the mood of the very unpleasant (and universal) feelings experienced by the salesman in the classic movie. Spark, you are so right! He’d been pushed to abandon his only “life" to suddenly realize that the future (empty road) didn’t have anything to offer… Jun 06, 2009 at 06:09 PM

Louis Simpson Offline Upload & Sell: On p.1 #19 · #347 Death of a Salesman... This is awesome John! You know how I like the black and white. Well done! Louis Jun 08, 2009 at 07:17 PM
