beau 1664876222 Posted February 27, 2004 Share Posted February 27, 2004 Eric, I like it. That blurred shape by her chin might be a little distracting, but the color and focus are great. It reminds me a little of <a href="http://www.photo.net/photo/1932375">this great photo</a> by another photonetter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

k2 Posted February 27, 2004 Share Posted February 27, 2004 i think there is always some mysterious magic to blur images. i know that they are not kindly received around photo.net, but to prove my point i will use my favorite painter gerhard richter who made in his early years paintings from blurred photoimages. the blurry image conveys something else as well besides its out of focus nature, the human condition, a gaze of life. i like your image a lot !, it seems more real to me then if it were sharp.gerhard's sample :<a href="http://www.artchive.com/artchive/R/richter/richter_phantom.jpg.html" >image</a><a href="http://www.artchive.com/artchive/R/richter/richter_staircase.jpg.html" >image2</a> k Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

emre Posted February 27, 2004 Share Posted February 27, 2004 Jeff has a great snap of two children from his recent trip to Vietnam that fits the description in my opinion. I am a big fan of surrealism, yet I could not find anything in my archives; a problem that must be addressed! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brad_ Posted February 27, 2004 Share Posted February 27, 2004 Eric, your photo is super - there's mystery there - it draws me in and causes me to wonder. The other photos here are excellent as well.<P> This is about the best I can do... Like Emre, I'd really like to pursue creating more photos like this - but discipline seems to get in the way...<BR> <P> <center> <img src= "http://pages.sbcglobal.net/b-evans/Images%202/Life.jpg"> </center> www.citysnaps.net Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EricM Posted February 28, 2004 Author Share Posted February 28, 2004 What a great way to come home, definitely some great images here folks! Beau, that is distracting to me too, it�s a cigarette, and thought about attempting to photoshop it, but my skills are poor. And I love that cross walk shot. K, thanks for the detailed reply. I became intrigued years ago when some of my first frames on a roll, used to advance onto the take up spool, where satisfying. Ed, I love the tones Vs. shapes going on in your first one. The diagonal tie in� Emre, Jeff has a few that would fit in here, but� Jeff, I love this current shot, also you have another that pops to mind that struck me months ago, I think it was a walker with a purple umbrella being shot through a wet window..? RJ Fox, that is stunning! IMHO, that�s best in show! Brad, thanks man. But you needn�t be humble, I�ve seen so many great pieces from you! You did one that would place nicely about your brain on �something� weeks ago, if I remember correctly� Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frank_page Posted February 28, 2004 Share Posted February 28, 2004 Eric, This type of image is not by cup of tea. But it certainly has an "arty" feel to it. Here is one of my efforts - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
