love it, for some reason it reminds me of the album cover to elliott smiths from a basement on the hill album cover, i think thats because of the colours on the wall, but its a strange link to make!

Love the lighting in this! Has a kind of 60s feel about it, or that could just be me! How many socks does a person need?!

Well spotted! the socks look as dingey as the houses. I like the processing you have used on this one too. What mad person would spend all that time hanging socks out though :thinking:
I like this one Noah. I love the warmth of the foregound wall against the colder background and the wall being slightly oof, so that you look over it rather than at it. :)
That's a lot socks.
Agreed about the lomo style of the processing. Works well here.

Great spot well executed Noah ... well done, like it ... :thumbs:
Great catch and excellent processing too.
Lovely shot, well captured - though the title did have me worried for a moment!!;)
thanks for the comments all :)
quite pleased with it looking at it again today.
Doesn't look like those socks have actually been washed yet! :D

Well spotted.
excellent stuff Noah, well spotted and nicely processed!
Well spotted & shot(ted) :) :thumbs: .
Only thing I would say is chop of the bottom 2 rows of bricks , it then fits that 1/3 rule & balances better letting you 'see' the socks more.
**usual disclaimer : I know nowt & the voices made me type it
Great fun shot - and not all filled with puppies as the popular newspaper shot.
Gives a lot of pleasure!
