I find this photo so awesome knowing Marc Almond had a photo with Andy Warhol, such precious and fantastic memories an artist could have! There's one of Marc and Dave with Andy but I can't find it at the moment, will post when I can get to it. I love it when an artist of any medium get to see one of their inspirations!

Another little critique/observation
I noticed something artsy about this pet text that Neil Tennant did of the Sunset Strip in Hollywood. It consists of a dedication to the great late Whitney Houston, and knowing its a sadistic day or month and definite shock for several fans and musicians, etc. The freeze frame of this photo was oddly brilliant because even the cars share the same dull colors of black and grayish white like the building that says "We Will Always Love You, Whitney." I thought this was another fascinating pet text that have to do with something artsy in my opinion. I must say they have a way to make simple things look like art sometimes even reflects on some thing like this. In other words, this is a nice, creative scale from black to grayish white.
Just thought I do a little critiquing on Chris Lowe 's photo of the sky
In the recent pet texts, I noticed this one look very fascinating. Even though it is simple, but the way this one looked, it have like a shading scale of the cool primary color blue. And then seeing something on the right side of the image looking its peaking at the viewer. Which is ironic for a day on Valentine's day, usually see bunch of love and happiness. But in a lot of cases this seems like its a peaceful but sad feeling if that make any sense, and you can definitely tell where the sun is because of the brightness on the top left corner. Again, I thought this was something very intriguing and just thought to critique it or observe it.
I know this is from an iPhone but some things can make certain things look artsy. The item on the right side of the image looks like a tree or a small crack, don't really know what it is. In a way, this photo could possibly symbolize Chris' feelings about Valentine's day too.
