Assorted flickr user comments on a T&A photo (half T, half A)

1) Nice contrast between the ambiance of the two images.

2) Very nice contrast.

3) I like the way both the symmetry and the mirroring works.

4) Great photographic territory that i hope you explore further.

5) The shadowplay is excellent and gets brought more with two sides of you.

6) Have to ask myself, " would i like this picture if there wasn't a beautiful woman in it ?" Unfortunately i dont think i would. [what a party pooper!]

7) I like the compositional play of 1-2 and A-B-A that occurs in it—it has a sort of triptych thing going, while only actually being two separate panels. This piece seems to be much more static and also a bit less mysterious.

8) The colours work for you.

9) There are no words.

10) The left one seems more enigmatic, no doubt, my favorite. [Note to reader—the left one is A, not T]

11) Wow, now that's a better split screen. [Only comment worth saving, in my opinion.]

12) I don't see anything wrong here, and to my mind it is such an improvement over the alternative, the symmetry, or rather antisymmetry of you and symmetry of chair and shadows (depends on how you look at it) is simply beautiful. [I understand the confusion. I had the same problem with tensor gymnastics—is this symmetric, or antisymmetric?]

13) Definitely, your aim is to kill us. I'm having a heart attack!!

Spell-correcting "wishy-washiness"

Did you mean:

trashiness
flashiness
squashiness
splashiness
flashiness?

No—I meant

washiness!
