Photographer's Note
At night along the Golden Triangle of Kuala Lumpur, I saw this advertised sign which to me reads as LARGE VERSION and tried my hand at abstract. Most of you will know what Large Version stands for. A brand name starting a series of fashion wear fit for Large Sized People. I know TE has its own Large Version LV. I was a bit ignorant a few years back, being coming out of the islands off Semporna having very little knowledge of this world or its materialistic value. So when I framed this photo for upload, then I thought it might look better with a bit of rotation on a black border. [The straight vertical looks a bit boring to me]. So, may I understand from some friends that Large Version also has a twin sister called Louis Vuitton from Paris? Too bad, they dont have a brand of dSLR called LV, otherwise I might wish to recommend to you.
Hey, dont waste your money on LV! It is way too expensive and for nothing. Get your dSLR and spend you money and time on better things! Like PHOTOGRAPHY!!!! Hear me?

Hello Bill,
Makes for a great graphical image, much enhanced by perfect exposure and sharpness. Very well observed and executed.

Hi Bill
Surely I don't have enough money to buy anything of LV and I think it is a trade that says nothing to me, even I had a lot of money.You're correct. Don't waste money on LV.
Very interesting note and picture. TFS

Hi Bill. Large version or Xtra large? ;-) Well spotted and nicely captured. The diagonal composition adds a little dynamism to the shot. I like the warm colours and repeating pattern of lights. Nice work and thanks for sharing.
Have a good Easter WE, Paul.

Hi Bill,
nice composition of the shot. I like its manipulation, colours and patterns.
The contrast work very well and the eyes tell that it is such an exciting one.
Thanks also for the WS, which is very well done and it add some new thought and alternative to my existing concept.
Thanks, Bill.
Regards,
Foozi

Hi Bill
They look like a box of chocolates, & the XL may well be required, if someone was to sit down and eat all of these, single handed! Good sharpness. I'll look at the TE links problem when I get to Korea. Right now, I need to pack. Cheers!

Hi Bill.
I agree with Chris about the box of chocolates!
I like your notes, and agree 100% with you on 'brand names', a ridiculous waste of money - for what?
You have cleverly made a great graphical image from your photo, high quality and interesting because of the angle of rotation. The sharpness is superb.
Regards,
Andrew

Hi Bill, I like the lines here and the Abstractosis you have caught, It is a nice sharp image and I like how you have used the diagonal to accentuate the lines. Great job, Lisa.

Hey Bill,
Whatever your point of view on the topic, the photo is absolutely excellent. The geometry and neatness to it .. the idea behind it ... even down to the colors and contrasts - it all looks splendid. A different kind of photo and that is always much appreciated.
Best regards.

Hi Bill
This one is somthing that stands out on the page..good that youve decided to fill the frame..its crisp and grpahic appeal is just enough..

ISO 2000 youve got to be...! think only a d90/d3 could give similar results..

Hello Bill,
Good manage on lighting and exposure to obtain a distinct photo, clear to see every geometries shape on the signboard.
You are right, LV is luxury brand, and I think many of LV products only have simply design, I feel boring with it, although have life time warrenty. Thanks for sharing.

I believe it's an eye catching work of art. You did well presenting this with partial rotation, it gives a pleasing result. Nice work.

Hello Bill, You have done very well with something that would go unnoticed to many people, well seen, a good graphical image with the rotation working well & I think making all the difference, black BG perfect as is the exposure & sharpness. You have done well here, my compliments.
Take care
Santo
I hear you.

Hi Bill,
I have created a theme called Alphabet and this one fits perfectly in it (so it does in the frame.. ;) On top of it these are the initials of my name and surname (no, i don't make the famous handbags!)
Anyway, this is pure graphism, with well set technical parameters...
