Thread: one of my LX3 shots made the front cover of local paper last week

hi guys
just as the title suggests one of my LX3 shots made the front cover of the local paper last week

Dozens of workers still in dark after garage closure - News - gethampshire

i mean, yeah it kinda sucked losing our jobs but i finally took a few shots i liked after a few non inspirational months

the full sized ones are on my flickr - End of Days - a set on Flickr

The second shot is very atmospheric. Great pictures, sorry to hear about the closure.

Fantastic shots.

How did you get the paper to notice the pics? Or do you already have a relationship with them?

Bad luck about the jobs but the pics I like and congrats on getting published.

Very nice photos. You've served the memory and its message well.

I'm very sorry to read about the closing of your place of work and appreciate your including the article. It's wonderful that your photographs were chosen for the article. I can see why the second means the most to you, as the sense of loss is palpable.

Hang in there, sh0wtime, keep us posted on your situation - and keep adding more photographs, as well.

Sorry to hear about your work closing. Great work with the LX3 and congratulations for the article!

I worked garage work, for many years, in several towns. Hate to have start over, but there is always work for a good mechanic. Especially when the economy is sluggish. Folks tend to get it fixed, instead of buying new. Your pictures brought back memories.

Sorry to hear about the closure, I hope that you find something else very soon. Thank you for sharing your pictures, best of luck and best wishes

Sounds like this is bitter sweet. Very nice photos.
