Global Warn ing ...

***

It is a brilliant picture - no less. If I do remember right you were in a pretty dark mood, when you made it. Your new (?) choise of tittle is very clever.

 

and one thing more: Your stills are 'Master' pieces.

Hi Bente - thanks for stopping by (-; ........ Yes when I originally shot this it was a dark time for me. I'm re-doing some of these older images so I can turn them into big prints - something I didn't do the first time around )-; ..

 

As for the title, I was looking at it, and what it reminded me of are the Oil shortages, Food shortages and Water shortages we are seeing world-wide these days - and the Grim Reaper eyeing the whole thing via the coyote skull - and the candle almost gone ........... Sad but true.

 

Thanks again Danish ... (-;

But on a lighter note - Coyote skulls are cheap and plentiful ... !

Great work (and very dark mooded). Feels a little like surrealism painting.. The way you bring out texture (esp. in b/w pictures) is amazing.

LOL .... maybe you could handle one for a pair of slippers .... or something else? (-;

 

... and Kay C is so right about the texture.

gee, the birthday fairy has come again... Hoping she left with with lots of goodies. We are thinking of you and sending you tons of wishes for a great day. (it was yesterday here in OZ)

 

Still cranking out some great work, K. Happy Birthday dear friend!

Hello Sweet Lady - so glad to see you here - I needed that - (-;

 

Happy May 15th to you .......... and give my Buddy a good slap on the ass for me - you know, Texas style.

 

Miss you both ...

Happy birthday kenmeister! Thats a pretty cool candlestick. I always liked the hard directional lighting of this series you shot with the hassie, the symbolism of death, lights out boxes empty flower wilted and coyote ... well I'm sure he was a pest anyways. All seen in the vivid light of the present. Hope you are doing well and having a lot of fun...

Speaking of global warning...what are all those burning candles doing to the environment?? LOL :)

Hello Bekster - that brass candlestick is a treasure - it truly is ... and I'll never forget. And yes I miss my basement dungeon window - best light ever (-; ..

 

Hello Captain - candle smoke - uhhhhhhh yeah - you're right - probably contributing as well )-; ..... Thank you for stopping by Les - glm.

An excellent composition, beautifully lit & exposed

Ken, old friend, it's nice to see you - thanks for checking in .. means alot.

 

 

I like the composition and the contrsts that you have achied with the very subtle colors of the "Spent"Flowers.

 

Excellent.
