Artist's Comments

Not sure what the fascination with Elmo is...

Second time I have seen and photographed him in or around times square.

This time - he didn\'t catch me peeping as he was doing some sort of no pants dance.

Taken with Leica M8 + Carl Zeiss Hologon 16mm f/16.

Ok Mat I like the idea and where you were going with the image. However Elmo gets lost in the shot with all the background light and distraction.

If you added a fill or a stronger fill flash it would have given Elmo the much needed attention he needs to stand out. Also by adding the fill it would let you drag the shutter a bit more keeping Elmo a bit more sharp then your background.

Totally agree with what you said. Having a fill or a flash would have given him the needed attention... but then again - it would have also gotten his attention and not really been a "street" photo.

It was just one of those captures... a moment happening right before you. You do what you can with the equipment you got. Thanks for the feedback though. Always appreciated.

Have to say I love this... It's surreal and the colours are spot on!
