klimax

Judging by the long shadows and soft lighting, this must have been taken late in the day. Therefore, I think this must be one of those artistic sunset shots that get so much favourable attention.

Thank you, Fabian. No need to worry about anybody looking back at you, though, because the helmet is part of a full suit of armour inside a glass-enclosed case.

Thank you, Bjorn. I've finally overcome my reluctance and started posting material.

Thanks, Ken. They really are struggling, aren't they?

Ben and Mark, thanks for your comments. Ben, you've pointed out several things I didn't see in the image myself.

 

Yes, all the prints done with this film under full sunlight were as bad. It's an Agfa 200 film (sold under the Polaroid name). I won't buy this film again.

I love it. You have not removed any of the important bits, that's for sure.

It's a real eye-stopper, for sure. I find the shadows, stripes, and chair have my curiosity and interest up.

 

I spent a while looking this over and trying to find meaning in it, but remained unsuccessful. Eventually, I decided it was still a very interesting shot, regardless.

 

I find this conveys nicely that post-sunset period when the mosquitoes come out and it cools off very rapidly. The worn landscape, boats, and dock all contribute to that "end-of-day" feeling.

Thanks for your candid comments, Timothy. I was hoping to convey something of the back-and-forth dance that dogs do with each other.

This would be much more interesting large. Somehow it doesn't work for me as a tiny photo.

Bjorn, I see that you have a good eye for colour.

 

The pose, especially with her lovely hair spread out, is most provocative. At the same time, her direct gaze and the colours in her skin give her a subjective presence. She is not simply a lust-object but a person whose jeans chafe against her hips and whose blouse chafes against her armpits. I think your portrayal of this duality is most interesting.

 

Very nice photo. There are many interesting details, starting with the glance and the concentration on the man's face.

 

Where was this taken? You indicate in the details that the location is in Mashad but perhaps that is an error.

Thank you, Alex. I think the really amazing thing is that they are able to land on the board and then skate away.

It seems that the good fairies were too busy having a party in your house while you were gone. When you came back, you did not give them enough warning. And so they did not have enough time to hang up this piece of clothing where it properly belongs. Perhaps next time you will ring your doorbell and wait for a few minutes before entering.

 

But are you sure that nothing changed? Did you smell the kitchen carefully? Did not the lettuce begin anaerobic decomposition?

 

I have difficulty seeing the frog

Never apologize. Never.

I think her startled distraction makes the picture interesting.

A perfect shot of a northern paradise.

She so vivid, as if she's ready to step right out of my monitor.
