Pink Ornamental Fence


LenMarriott

Spotted while touring the city. Details lost to antiquity. Image flipped horizontally to have faces turned to the right. Looks OK in B&W but left in colour because of the oddity of it. Best, LM

An original and very well composed photograph. I can't decide if I like the grain or not, but it probably gives the shot a particular touch. What I like a lot is the focusing of the second and third nearest "faces" and the other ones being gradually more and more blurred. Regards!

Thanks for your thoughts. I think the grain might be due to the possibility that this is Kodachrome 200 which had some grain issues. Also, I think Kodachrome in general has some difficulties with being scanned. Not sure why. I'm using an older Minolta Scan Dual II if that matters. I remember that the selective focus was a planned feature & I liked the unusual colours here as well. Best, LM.

Always a pleasure. The features you mention are exactly what attracted me in the first place. Thanks for your visit. Best, LM

Unless you have deeper pockets than mine you couldn't afford to have this guy for a neighbour. :-) Thanks for popping by. Best, LM.

Thanks for your visit & your comment. Yes, the wrought iron faces are spooky enough and are exaggerated by the unusual colour. The shallow DOF works well as it's not necessary to have them all in sharp focus to know they are all the same. Best, LM.
