"A well respected photographer here at PN said "This site has to do more with frequent activity and reciprocation,than with art itself. I'm sure if I stop for a while,everyone will soon forget about me."

My case as well.

Best regards Antoni.

Balafas said that photography is very difficult just because is so easy and that is more true today with digital photography. We shall see though when the dust settles.

Elaine,

 

thanks for taking the time to express your thoughts !

Maurizio,

In many circumstances animals know better than "the almighty man"...

You are one of those people that take time in what you do. Thank you for that! and thank you for taking time in my corner of PN...

I hope so Antoni, historically we have seen this before. Nothing has really changed since ancient times. Elpizo na katalaves tin ennia tou protou mou sholiou.

Dimitri,

 

we are in agreement, please elaborate...

Lovely, clean B&W . Original.

Alberto,

 

Thank you!

This is just a wonderful image. I think what really makes it for me is the length of the young ladie's arm and the very dleicate touch of her hand on the animal's nose. The long, yet graciously extended arm suggests to me the real need she has to make contact with another animal, and there is real comunion between the two in their eyes. I am also struck by the elegance of the young girl in contrast with the somewhat ragged appearance of the sheep - certainly two very different worlds that still find a point of contact. The darkness of where she stands in opposition to the lightness of the animal's habitat and the strong, dark, vertical lines of the boards and battens that define the human world as opposed to the softer fencing (softer in focus and lighter in tone) in the background try to seperate the pair, but her very caring expression breaks through those elements to ultimately connect them. It makes for a very charming image, and an image that is most welcome at the end of the day. Thanks for your comments, and I look forward to more of your work!

Mark,

 

I cant thank you enough, for taking the time to comment. You "see" things in a special way! Thank you for sharing your thoughts. Be well.

beautiful image. I love to see a natural connection and display of care. Well seen. Great image

Sonia, I thank you...

A scene of affection , an unexpected gesture , in a surprisingly balanced composition. The photo was very correctly deprieved from its unnecessary  colour information load, permitting the focus to the straight line consisted of the lady's eyes, her stretched hand and the eyes of the animal. The compressed perspective enhances this strange bond  and  the overall impression is not of the ones than can be easily forgotten -once seen ! ( which is the issue of  the little chat that was deployed here ) Polla heretismata !

Chris,

so nice of you to take your time and comment on a favorite of mine! Thank you!
