Parking fields

i'm not sure what makes them work for me, but this one doesn't have it either. best, j

Eh. I thought it might be a bit too far-out in idiosyncratic kind of way, even for a big dadycane but it's sure o'kay.

i think the lens produces blur that is a bit too aggressive, given the highlights.  best, j

I think you are right in judging the shot as such, the sense of aggressive is comming from the place and the sort of architecture they got there. Rather strange spot altogether - as I saw it.

Ilia, it is that type of shots which forces the viewer to open up eyes and mind. The mismatch between the title: "Parking fields", which is concise and factual to the extreme, and the image, which is almost the exact opposite, is a wake-up call to any viewer. Well done. 

When that is said, the question remains: what are viewer indeed seeing.

Personally, I see the image as a critic of our tentatively ordered world of artifacts, a critic of reality as we would like it to be. 

i think you're right.  best, j

Thanks, folks. Apprecite your kind attention.

The way I look at it - seeing have got to be liberal. What is this 'oppressive' anyway -? Where does it come from?

i'd say it was the lens not distributing the highlights smoothly.  best, j

Must be a memory laps on my behalf. Hey, there can be ups and downd in show business.
