Description "I know the pieces fit
'Cause I watched them fall away
Mildewed and smouldering
Fundamental differing
Pure intention juxtaposed
Will set two lovers' souls in motion
Disintegrating as it goes
Testing our communication
The light that feuled our fire then
Has a burned a hole between us so
We cannot see to reach an end
Crippling our communication

I know the pieces fit
'Cause I watched them tumble down
No fault, none to blame
It doesn't mean I don't desire to
Point the finger, blame the other
Watch the temple topple over
To bring the pieces back together
Rediscover communication." Schism - Tool.

Model - Bill O'Connor.

This is the first part in a tryptych photography portfolio looking at the racial tensions seen during the Cronulla race riots in 2005. Two other photo's will follow. This is the first of three.

Cheers.

the lyrics fit perfectly for the whole series. is it a coincidence that his finger forms an upside down cross or is it just me?

you have great concepts, but I think that this could be pulled off in a more visually appealing way. Also, strength in
numbers. Something like this could have more impact with environmental detail - perhaps
a significant place, with a large group of people. The clothing also doesn't fit the concept...I don't think...or does it?

I don't think visually appealing is the way to go with this one, i wanteed it simple, clean cut and brutal. I want it ugly so to speak. But I've got a re-shoot next week so i'll do some alternative shots then. ^_^ thanks for the crits

visually appealing doesn't always mean pretty. It can be ugly. If you're going ugly, try taking it a little further
otherwise it doesn't come across as intentional. It looks more casual to me then brutal or ugly. I guess that
I just didn't quite get what you were going for with this one. Looks like a fun photoshoot though!
