Impressionism

In my opinion, poor impressionism.

Really out of focus, but I didn't realize that this was Impressionism. Even so, it doesn't hit the mark.

what's there to see?

?

Impressionism- A style of painting characterized chiefly by concentration on the general impression produced by a scene or object and the use of unmixed primary colors and small strokes to simulate actual reflected light. Webster's Dictionary

Yes, that is indeed the definition... However, impressionism had a focus (no pun intended) - it was an impression of something tangible. Perhaps a cafe scene, a meal, etc. The impression this leaves me with is that the photographer has tripped and is falling forward and to the left.

 

Now, having said that ... keep shooting. It may be very hard to pull off using a photo, but the idea has merit and should be pursued.

"The impressionist style of painting is characterized chiefly by concentration on the general impression produced by a scene or object and the use of unmixed primary colors and small strokes to simulate actual reflected light."

(see Monet and Pissarro)
