arthur_mcculloch2 Posted December 15, 2022 Share Posted December 15, 2022 They are good shots. Allancobb, I could not but think of Van Gogh's solitary reaper in a field of wheat, death in the midst of life. The flags, the solitary walker, very evocative. And Billblackwellimages. They are so vibrant, the second shot - are they rapeseed? My contribution comes from earlier this week - a trip to bountiful. Visited my mother before christmas. So that's the first shot - I've seen the future, and it's ugly. Then a plastic photographer at the food hall I had dinner, and then a couple of inexpert p&s pre focused shots as I sat on George Street (Sydney's CBD main street), ruminating. It's an interesting technique. Worthy of further exploration. All with my monochrom and go to 75mm voigtlander (aka cosina). I look forward to other contributions. 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's nice to look at when it's new and ripe, but later it dries out and creates a huge fire hazard. It's very difficult to get rid of.

They have a character different to the serenar, at least what I think is a 50mm. But so good. Bravo. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ahh, In my High school and college days, bak in the late 60's, we used to hike Holy Jim Canyon which starts at the end of Trabuco Cyn. One of my employers lives off of Live Oak about 1-2 miles down from Cook's Corner. I'm glad they un-decided to tear Cook's down a few years ago, definitely an OC landmark. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allen Herbert Posted December 21, 2022 Share Posted December 21, 2022 "So that's the first shot - I've seen the future, and it's ugly" Arthur. Science, not religion, from serious studies, from top universities; many think otherwise. Hard core scientific facts. Google. Not really the place to discuss this. But think quantum physics,; conciseness never dies, it is a wave form....the basic construction of the universe is made up of waves...much like music.. . I like go to the root things, ,mostly ancient history.. ... those who we call Israelite's were a variety of mercenary tribes paid to defend Egypt from the the mysterious sea people. Invaders.. Jesus only existed in the scribes of Jewish folk 100 years after his purported death. There is absolutely no archeology .or, written evidence he ever existed. Anyway, time for a photo...that's what we are all about. Apologies' if I've upset anyone ...but free thought is important. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allen Herbert Posted December 21, 2022 Share Posted December 21, 2022 Why believe in fairy tales when the truth is far more interesting. We are all grown up now, and we understand fairy tales are just fairytales. The truth is far more interesting. but you have to work to find it. Hey, Ho why bother when you can live in a nice fairy tale.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
