This, I recall is the work which started my "Chairperson" -series.

Personally I find the cropping pleasing and the shadow (as in most

of my work) is intentional. One original framed monochrome print is

50x40cm.

A very nice photograph (6/6). Cropping it slightly more below and including the complete jewelry would make it more so...

...for your kind comments. I added, Dennis a separate scan making a different picture "Framed Hair", 2003...enjoy.

Definitively a start for a "Mirror" -series....

...just buns in sun...for fun?

 

Raging waters, Rick, raging waters in Vancouver....no other purpose than capturing a moment of light. Bygones...

The single window is to the right...

Flying in circles...

...photographer Jean-Loup Sieff's quote;

"One day, I will make a book called; Homage to a hundred and twenty seven bottoms chosen for their plastic, intellectual or moral qualities" un-quote

(This quotation is from page 209 in his book 40 years of photography) Please, Jim take a look at my other "bottom pic"...sort of explains the title

Thanks Julia for your comment. The actual framed print is cropped so that the chin does not show, the jewelry does however. I wanted to leave a face in the shadow which I think brings a little more to the pic compared to cropping above the breast.

"Cherub" -theme apart I guess there are certain times we wish for

new wings...

I checked the 20x30cm print and there's a slight softness I'm comfortable with.

The scan seen here is only 29K in size so it's losing something to the pixels I suppose... thank you for your input.

...I'm sure.

...for your kind words Marko and Paul!

 

And yes, we are looking north trough the window...

Inexplicably this view works for me (and several others whom have

purchased a framed print)...and I certainly would not mind living in

one of the modest upper apartments with a small gallery on street

level...please check the text version further below.

...as photographed on a wall nearby.

"Hilippa Uppa" ,1998 (100x80cm)

This is absolutely a one-off fruit topic for me.

 

One big framed print vanished in South-Africa, either on-route or on-site.

My "photo statement" tried to make its way to a photo salon several years ago; "South African Apples", 1997

 

This nice 80x100cm sepia toned print is in my kitchen....and yes, they are SA apples...

"Fredrikinkatu", 1998 (80x100cm)

"Hilippa Uppa", 1998 (100x80cm)

Another version from another wall... "Serenity", 2001 (80x100cm)

"Hand 2", 1998 (80x100cm)

...not walzing Matilda but "Sitting Miranda", 2001 (80x100cm)

I like the way the window makes a top frame on the picture.

"Please do not move for a second or so of exposure..."

At one time there was quite a hole in the ground in downtown

Helsinki.

This nightly triptych needs 3,5 x 1 meters of wall space.
