stray cat Posted August 16, 2017 Share #38441  Posted August 16, 2017 Advertisement (gone after registration) Phil, if it's not hanging on your wall, it should be!! PS For my education I'd really like to know how you went about lighting the display. Hope you don't mind me asking. Knowledge is king.    Thank you. It is a photograph I find very absorbing. As hard as I try to avoid it, the vases and flowers in background draw my full attention. At the verge of becoming simply "bokeh," their elegance is overwhelming. In an odd twist of the normal, I perceive the bottles and flowers in focus serve to support the background. Wonderful picture Phil , a real painting Superb composition , superb color (a little blurry), superb framing The red , the real red , the true red is there , no doubt it's geranium red color You said "outdate" ?  still nice , film is unbeatable Thank you Henry Thank you most sincerely Wayne, Steve and Doc. Steve and Wayne, all credit for the arrangement and lighting go to my wife Sue. She has an amazing eye for putting things in their right places. In this case Steve, the vases are simply arranged by the diffused glass window beside the front door of a modern house we were renting until earlier this year - it was late(ish) afternoon light and the sun was shining fairly directly towards the window, perhaps muted a bit by some light cloud. BTW I certainly don't mind anyone asking - sharing knowledge is, as you say, king, and it helps me or whomever took the picture to remember how a certain look was achieved too.  Wayne, a thoughtful response as usual, and one that I find helps consolidate my thoughts too. I firmly believe that what is out of focus (and therefore, presumably, not the main subject of the picture) is every bit as important as what is. We are fortunate enough to have tools at our disposal to enable us to use the properties of those tools - lenses that, unlike our own eyes, will enable us to savour colour and form that melts into a kind of abstract pattern of its own. I'm not talking here of expensive gear - any lens on which has variable apertures enables this, and different ones have different characters. But, yes, I agree - the light blue of the rear vase tends to attract me most. Any elegance is my wife's flair for arrangement.  Thank you Henry. This is a weird film, but capable of outstanding results. It puts me in mind of the film Christoph has been using for his walking project in Italy. It is - sounds ridiculous to say it - "cinematic". And even now as I write this, those three vases are in front of me again, in a different house, and there are different geraniums from a different garden in them. Strange isn't it? 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doc Henry Posted August 17, 2017 Author Share #38454  Posted August 17, 2017 (edited) .. another picture and the last for to-day I only take one roll of 36 p , for the Castle , a difference when I used digital ... you already know the "shutter syndrome" and so no inflation in pictures ! I reflect in myself , I compose , I frame before I touch the shutter ... I economize  Leica M7-Summicron 35 Asph-Kodak Portra 160 No correction   Image24fontkp16m7cron35fht+++550.jpg  Best Henry  I frame mostly at right because all the left side of the entrance is in restauration, not nice for the picture. You do like me ? The blue of the sky is this real blue and stone has this color ... no doubt about the color !
