An old photograph I revisited. A few years ago, I couldn't figure out how I wanted to crop it and eventually forgot about it. But now I kinda like how the red from the next shop lot is bleeding into the green.

Taken at Malacca, Malaysia.

This is a very thought-provoking image, especially with the little flag peeking out the top window...

So what kind of thoughts are being provoked?

M-Allcock In reply to designslave [2008-01-18 16:53:16 +0000 UTC]

It reminds me of a book jacket for those life stories about the terrible hardships people suffer due to politics, and the way everything about the building is unwelcoming but there is a sense of someone trying to escape... The flag could be ironic or a cry for help, and the peeling paint with the red and green make the image striking and culturally different.

Very insightful perspective.. I didn't realise the flag was there until someone else pointed it out. So much for my attention to detail.. LOL. Thanks for your comment <3

I remember your malaysian photos : D They all seemed really vibrant and happy.

It's nice to see something from the past.
I think you've cropped it really nicely in this shot.

interesting how there is one smaller one that is open and the other is barred shut. It seems like you'd use the bottom door to enter but the opportunity not often thought of is probably the one you'll be forced to choose...@.@
