I agree!

The angular graphics encompassing a faceless individual, the subtle colors and tones. This image certainly stands out. An impressively beautiful capture.

Vermeer.

And not an earring in sight!

As I often say, you can't beat a painter.

My granddad used to be a reasonably accomplished fine-art painter. It rubbed off on the grandchildren. If your theory holds, i'm very apparently squandering my talents...

Have you tried seriously to paint?

I'm just about through with lunch - beautiful hake today - and as a side-dish, the web has me exploring the differences between Manet and Monet.

Years of looking for expensive books has become almost irrelevant today; there is so much out there to look at, but as ever, not always easy to tell where reality ends and bad information begins.

Have you noticed the echoing of the scarf and skirt in the painting on the wall?

Winter is back, but perhaps a final attempt to hold back the inevitable. Anyway, caught in the morning glow of yesterday:

Indeed.
:-(
Just home from some shooting, I feel like an icicle. Only -2/-3 Celsius, but that east wind. My hands feel clumsy even after a hot bath!

Fairly weird. I call this "Levitating Branch."

And another example of True Street Photography: "Cracks."

Many thanks for the comments on the seated lady, much appreciated.

Here's another shot, perhaps more typical of the area. Leica M240, 50mm Zeiss C Sonnar ZM, @ around f/4 - those who use these antiquated cameras will know there's no recording of aperture to the metadata ;-(

Reminds me of a scene in Lethal Weapon...

Both are quite intriguing!

Sorry, Dave. I must have missed yours.
Mine was actually dangling by a fishing line (not visible in the photo, I hope) that had caught in the tree.
I'm sure yours was more purely levitating.

P.S. Thanks, Armand.

I had a suspicion that might be the case seeing similar stuff but you can't see it on your photo so one can only guess.

farbschlurf · « **Reply #1258 on:** March 19, 2018, 09:42:20 am »

Somehow I found this pretty interesting. Stood there long time till I got it "right". I'm afraid it's not so interesting for others?

Rob C · « **Reply #1259 on:** March 19, 2018, 10:53:46 am »

I understand; the image has geometric equilibrium even though at first glance one might think that it does not.

Sarah Moon wrote (and I can only paraphrase, because to find her relevant video, though I have it, would take me all day), "I would love to make a photograph where nothing happens, but for nothing to happen something must happen first." I reserve doubts about the logic of that idea, but as a supreme artist, why would she require the justification and burden of logic? So yes, I can accept that she would instantly know where your photograph was trying to lead her, quite without any need for captions or similar thought signposts.
