GOOGLE READER #9 RESPONSE

Came across the Lenscratch blog about Mark Sherratt, I love his Train series of portraits. These images evoke such an authentic type of portraiture photography. The strong, centered images gives a glimpse into the commute of many different classes of people. I like how the author of the blog laid it out in the post, giving you insight on the overall intention of the photographer with some text between the images.

  

The framing and attention to color and detail in these images are very particular and paid attention to.  The shutter blinds of the bus windows allow for a certain barrier between the viewer and person on the bus, forcing the viewer to look closer into the image to get more information, particularly in the faces of the people.

 Check out Mark Sherratt's work, it's really interesting!

His section titled "Places" on his website has some great images, some of them I feel relate to some of the work I've been doing lately with my critiques.
