All candid shots. No set-ups, other than where they are! :D

    I think the idea is excellent. While these photos do show fear in a clever / unusual setting, I find the photos themselves too snapshot-ish. I've seen much better photography from you, Don.

    Thank you for commenting! Yeah, they are too snap shoty, but this is a live event taken on the fly, not posed!

    Not sure I can get around to doing posed shots on The Prow.

    I think #1 has potential, but needs some processing love. B&W? Grain? Dunno - something that helps make the flaws seem i ntegral rather than ... well... flaws :D

    I don't think that they are too "snap shoty"... I don't think it necessarily needs to be posed. But, the shots are too blurry, grainy and just the victims of bad lighting and movement. I do like the underlying premise tho. :)

    Thanks for replying! I'll play around a bit with that this evening. Will post again! :D

    Actually, yes! I think the colored sweatshirts really detracted from the shot. I like this new version. Maybe try cropping out the woman on the right side?
