"What Would Warren Do?..." (WWWD?)
One of the great things about this Forum is the cross-fertilization of ideas and "seeing" between us all.
This morning, I went to meet someone at a marina nearby to drop off some prints - I hadn't been there before, and while I was waiting, I saw this scene... not something I think I would have even noticed before, but when I saw it this time, I thought, "hey, that's something Warren would shoot!"
Since I had my trusty new Canon A620 with me, I took a few shots. At least, I think it's a "Warren Photo" - what do you think?? In any event, it's "Warren-inspired" :-)
I wanted to get this up on the Forum, especially so Warren could see it - I'm still at work and just took a few minutes to suck today's photos into my PC and desaturate it in Picassa - I'll try to do a better B&W conversion in the next few days (there really was hardly any color in this image, anyway.)

What incredible timing!!!
I had just posted my "Fence Arrow" shot just before you posted the WWWD shot :).
So I guess the answer is yes, it would be a subject that I would shoot! Too funny!

wow - yeah, look at those time stamps - 11 minutes apart - well, I couldn't wait any longer to see if it was a true "Warren Woulda Shot It" (WWSI) photo... and I'm really glad you think it is! That's too cool.
What can I say, Warren, great minds think alike, no?

I'll have to chime in and say that without looking at who posted the picture, I thought it was Warren's. How about that?
uh-oh, maybe i'm becoming too predictable :) :P
here's a future monthly project:
shoot like someone else on the forum, hehehheh...

Hi Benson - would you say that it was a .... Tang-y ... photo?
(Ouch! what a terrible pun!)
Warren - that's not a bad idea!
- SteveR
We can shelve the idea until we get some more samples from the other folks on the forum (don't know when that would be though, it may be a while).
SteveR, you have a very obvious style. This is an honest question for you and everyone else: Do I have a recognizable style? I tend to run the gamut of subject matter, but perhaps you can still tell it's me despite the subject???
I would really like to know.
