I think my redscale photos aren't very well liked. I think they're neat

I like it too. It's got that depth of field that almost makes it look unnatural. The floor looks like it's a macro shot so the tire seems like it's stuck on, not part of the original... if you know what I mean.

This (in the greenhouse, the 1st one) is one of a few that were the very first I ever shot with my Hasselblad. My kind neighbor never chases me off (like my kids do) when I appear with my camera. This hasn't gotten any attention, while I like it.

Oh yes, and there's another of him (shelling peas) that I really like, but I think others look at it as a dud. The one with the strong shadows - I like it. A photographer said to me, "imagine it without the shadows". I think it's partly the shadows that make me like it!

Dude, "photos that no one else likes" is the major theme of my work

I like this picture of Maracas Beach, Trinidad, but nobody else does. I used a Voigtlander Bessa R with 35mm Ultron lens, and a red filter. Film was TMX shot at 200.

I get a lot of, "They still make black and white film?" comments. Or, "You went to the beach to take black and white pictures??!"

I had the same thought as JGCull--what's not to like about that?

I like your first one very much, allthough I think a little different print is needed to make it pop. The second one, I dont like like so much initially... but its weird cause when i see the thumbnail i see the patterns in the shadows and it really catches my eye.. But then when I see the full size i focus more on the man and the can.

I like this very much! The looks on those kids faces in the front are terrific!
Allthough I kinda like the policeman in the top right, I think you should crop it down to focus on the kids.

All the attachments and my "American Street" series haven't been well received. Can't quite place why. I really enjoy the images, and others from the various series (Save for the street one) have been quite popular...

Walter.
Beautiful abstractions.
Crop the foot and let your highlights up a bit on the first one.
Shoot more like this, I don't think images like these can be too strong on their own.

I like all of these, but few or no one else does.
Oh well, as long as I'm happy with them myself I don't care (much)
