Anyway, great photo.. btw: is the canon ltm something beyond `nice to play with´ ? Thank you so much Klaus. This is certainly a blue era in so many ways, although I can't say I selected the colour scheme for the photograph with that in mind - it was just there! As for the Canon 50mm f1.4 ltm, it is a lovely lens, well-built, nice positive clicks and focusing, and lots of beautiful character wide open. It is no Summicron, though. Here is a comparison "young leaves" torture test photo I took with the Canon the same time as I took the summicron one above (both 1/1,000 sec at f2, minimum focus distance - 1m for the canon, 0.7m for the summicron): Welcome, dear visitor!

It is a useful and valued addition to my camera bag. My 50mm and 35mm Summicrons, along with Elliott Erwitt's old 135mm Elmar, have just returned from having a CLA by Youxin Ye.

I've tried to take carwash photos but haven't been able to do it. You've nailed it and this becomes a beautiful and intriguing abstract. 4 hours ago, Ernest said: Fugitive Field M-A APO 50 ADOX Color Implosion & Fuji Natura Ah, yes, Rog, a Fugitive field - but where's the one-armed man? Ralph Gibson (or is it Dr Richard Kimble?) talks (ad infinitum) about the advice Dorothea Lange gave him at 21 about the need for having a "point of departure". You have not a "point" but a "line" ie a "sequence of pints" of departure. You've looked at art, great art, and reimagined it emanating from found objects in the real world. Then you've taken it further. As here, you've added an element of mystery. What was that tape holding on to? Was it a notice that we should be aware of? Should we hurry on out of Ocean Park? And this engenders a further question about signs and their meanings - for instance, what meaning has an "ex-sign", as you've apparently included here? If a sign is no longer there, is the meaning no longer relevant? Was there any meaning and/or message in the first place? Yes, these are the labyrinthine paths down which you send us. 55 minutes ago, sblitz said: Last night outside Trump tower .....

Her expression is difficult to read - there seems a kind of smugness, but also perhaps some indecision or uncertainty. Her billowing dress and the blurry passer-by just add to that sense of inscrutability. And congratulations on getting the home developing going! It looks like you've hit the ground running! 1 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If a sign is no longer there, is the meaning no longer relevant? Was there any meaning and/or message in the first place? Yes, these are the labyrinthine paths down which you send us. Provocative and thoughtful is your brand. Instigator. You keyed off of "fugitive" and on-the-run Gibson's "points of departure." Lange may have added in her advice to consider "a point of arrival," as well. I must admit that I remembered your photograph in Italy of a bulletin window against a red background with only torn corners of notices still stuck to the glass, only it was dimensional and abstract because shadows of the paper corners gave a 3D effect. So last week when I saw this black utility door with the what we left of masking tape from a posted notice, I had that aha! moment. I started with this image and thought of it as evidence of what wasn't there. The notice, long gone--a fugitive. It was an idea that has always intrigued me as a fulcrum in photography: present though absent. The allusion to something that is absent, that enlists the imagination to connect fragments of what is seen with what isn't seen into a meaningful narrative. What is abstract and non-linear is fair. We see this in Jasper Johns, for instance, and the collaboration with John Cage, Merce Cunningham, and even Rauschenberg, not to mention Samuel Beckett's Fizzles. The other thing that interested me was the nature of fugitive light and particularly red watercolors that fade and are notoriously fugitive, such as alizarin crimson. Signs and their meaning, which you bring up, is such multi-layered terrain. Knowing things by what they're not (Saussure). I find just the notion of punctuation, translated from text to image, an intriguing proposition. Punctuation, as graphic signs that inform language production, encodes intonation to clarify syntax and meaning. It can signal silence and stillness, even conveying indirectly visible features. Emotional texture. Your question asking if there was any meaning and/or message in a sign in the first place points to the well-known citation that no meaning is the meaning. I think back on seeing at the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art Gerhard Richter's 1962 Tisch that he painted from a Domus magazine photograph; he obliterates the image of a table with a large smear in the center of the black-and-white painting. It registers along with Rauschenberg's Erased de Kooning. In imagination, we resurrect from the scumble the allusion of that which is not there. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
