I got looks

Posted by BLISTR (Edmonton, Canada) on 23 July 2008 in Abstract & Conceptual and Portfolio.

This is a photograph from West Edmonton Mall - the biggest consumerism show on Earth. Believe it or not, some people go to the mall for their vacation.

I used a zoom lens and got in close to this "Champions" sign. For those who don't know, it's a store that sells athletic footwear and clothing. A few people stared at me; probably wondering why is there a guy taking a photograph from such an obtuse angle of a store sign. I get that a lot. : )
I thought it was in focus. But, alas, this old camera doesn't have auto-focus and neither do I.

Nothing done in Photoshop except a scale, crop.
