Unfortunately, not, Michael. It was taken with b&w film.

Thank you dcstep. I glad you like it.

Thank you for your thoughts.

Thank you Michael. I see your point, what would be your version?

Thank you kmac. It was at local university campus. I see as it may benefits from some contrast. Thank you Michaell. Thank you Sandy. Thank you Sam.

Thank you for your thoughts.

Or she may have too many drinks during writing “On Photography” (per her own notes)

The swiss knife of the headlights.

Thank you.

Thank you for your feedback. I glad my picture has “touched” your limbic system. Cheers.

I used supermatism as a bold example of assigning the new/specific meaning to the objective (related to objects) entities, this process is inseparable from any genre of art up to some degree, as was mentioned in this discussion. I should agree that photography has less options for its disposal in compare to painting. I do not know what did Fan Ho try to conveyed with shadow: to create an accessory to the main object (woman at the wall) or to show the flow of attention or energy. I'm not sure if I understood your arguments correctly for this photo, but you can consider the leading lines included in this frame as abstract narrative, up to some extent. It is always possible to look at any art as multilayered product.

Thank you jc1305us. I was trying to capture the metaphorical photo with "contrast" objects - the extra-utilitarian boxy warehouse building that usually have just loading/unloading terminals and the entry door - the brick wall, and the meaningless window with the outdoor light below it, as the touch of absurdity.

or to use a new abstract language (e.g. suprematism) to convey your story.

Thank you michaellinder. The issue could be in my monitor calibration, I tried to bring more contrast, but immediately lost details of frame. Thank you samstevens. Why not, for change.

Thank you for your thoughts.

Thank you MrAndMrsIzzy. Here it is <www.amazon.com/gp/product/B094XYMNSR/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o08_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1> Thank you JDMvW. I'm not sure what is your point (conceptual string installations) My story is above and below the device. Thank you movingfinger. I agree with your idea, table introduces some distraction. Thank you Dieter Schaefer. Shedding is an allegorical process - its impossible to "read" anything from shredded pieces. Thank you charles_escott_new. Yes it would be another possible turn.

Thank you samstevens.

Thank you for your thoughts. Cheers.

Thank you MrAndMrsIzzy. I thought about the knob of crank, I think the removing it will, up to some extent, diminish "the grinder functionality", and moving it too high could draw too much attention to itself. Thank you Michael.

Thank you for your thoughts. Cheers.

Yes, the mirror looks ~2 degree CCW rotated - I was setting the shoot off of beater instead of mirror, so 1 CW will look better. The trap in "circle of life" is horizontal. The reason of the side shoot is to visually underscore closed trap, to me, the straight shoot makes trap less recognizable. Cheers.
