We Stopped at Perfection

Click for larger image of Grunge photo effect of young black youth at SFMOMAI took the original photo I used for this piece at the San Francisco MOMA. The young black man in the photo was one of the staff at the museum. The wording "We stopped at perfection" in the top right corner comes from a photo I took of the back of a packet of kettle fried potato chips! LOL!

I'm interested in any constructive criticism you might have of this artwork. Please post your comments below. Thanks!

Original Photo Details:
Camera: Canon EOS 20D
Exposure: 0.05 sec (1/20)
