Though I'd start another photo thread...this time for abstract photographs. Photos where the actual object in front of the lens is obscured by the lighting, patterns, colors, motion blur or other techniques which become the real subject of the photo...I'll start with a few I have at work...more later

Some very cool shots by all. There was a technique posted in the photographers of supertopo that was interesting. It involved layering shots taken at different apatures and focal points. Perhaps I'll play with it sometime. Anyone try before?

I took off for several years and just took pictures. After a while you see things around you in an utterly different way. There is amazing form and beauty all around you if you start noticing.

The art of noticing.

Ahhh. Photoshop killed photography. Sad to say, but it is true. Sure there is still craft, but you won't see a single photograph published without going through software first. Not one.

Dick caught a beautiful pattern. What he did with it could not be replicated by any artist, and if he could have a printer spray it onto canvas with paint, he would get very wealthy from that.

20 years ago, that would be amazing. It is getting too easy, though. Not ragging on you, Dick, but photography has hit a wall that needs to be broken down to begin a new art.

I love your photographs because you see form that people walk right past.

After breaking my leg while skiing this winter, I have had more than enough time at the computer learning how to make already abstract photos into something really bizzare.
This is fun at the computer but is no where near as satisfying as getting a good natural photo like this wind blown snow.

Strange that today's sunsight, not half an hour ago, utilized it's red clouds to take my blues away over having screwed up on my camera settings the day before yesterday, which I still have to understand and put to rights. I'm new, the camera's the pro.

The colors only lasted until I'd shot these few scenes, out of focus, a scant three or four minutes after I'd noticed the colors out my window & had raced up to the fifth floor, barely getting there before everything started to fade to pastels.

I believe I need a new SD card. The old one is headed for the scrap heap, unless there's a way to save the shots that were on it before I "formatted." Any one know anything?--Artless Codger

Hey, those are very pleasing to the eye, Vince.

I like the Death Valley one, in particular.

And I recall sitting in Leidig one eve with a young woman and trippin'. I saw giraffes on the northside walls, traced by the moonlight.

I betcha they're still there.

excellent chaz, nice pallet! i marvelled at the polygonal salt ponds from my first few flights as a kid, and again sailing small craft from the harbor. a mountain of morton salt dominated the near horizon. what the heck bulldozers were doing mucking around in my food was as puzzling as umbrella girl on the box. cracker in the shaker finally made sense once i confronted real humidity, but iodine? ... goiters? a ten year old knows when his chain's being yanked. thanks for one more revelation

We can both remember climbing an odd combination of features in Tuolomne Meadows with one of the Bircheffs which we name Strange Brew. We forgot to record it, so now it is something else. Brian is a great keeper of our tribal flame. Coming soon, a "rock." And not those in M's NE Ohio gardens.

well Mouse, thank you for your generous words...Bob and I were polar opposites on some issues...
he wanted his opinion enforced by government, i wanted to do good for the desert...
and stay far away from what i knew would happen if he involved the park service, blu, monument staff, it went federal. so i was really frustrated that , at least in my opinion, he put his ego, ahead of what was good for the monument, or access in general.

if you want a flavor for my gear background.. look at the dyneema fabric "thread..."

I like the picture but I’m still looking for the nude.
I guess art is supposed to make us challenge our expectations. :-/

MrE actually took that photo (page top) at the New River Gorge last fall. I did a little creative editing.

Just a wild dramatic stripe in the sandstone we found hiking around.

Nick's snow-shadows are pretty crazy. What are those- fence post tops? I always like a hard shadow on snow or sand.




Edit @ Reilly:

LINE ON GREY...I'll give you my professional artist evaluation:

Reilly's image evokes trepidation with a hint of eroticism. The longer it is studied, the more tangible the feelings of regret and nostalgia become. The line is neither the object of objecthood nor the art-object. It is rather the oblique object of intention.

2nd Edit for Gnome: (I'm on a roll)

My comments on Gnome's Groundbreaking set of photos:

7 FACES OF MADNESS

Gnome's work fuses chaos with order, with lines and shapes. Closer inspection gradually reveals that a set of rules governs the repetition. Thus, the artist challenges the viewer to explore the rules encoded in the subconscious that shape our aesthetics, to consider why we find tension in the juxtaposition of similarity.

Rather than any implied meaning or message, the repetitive nature of these photos encourages the viewer to consider the visual qualities of the stone - the composition, surfaces, textures and the relationship of depicted space to line and form. In simplicity, art becomes more direct and incisive in its dissection of the human mind, a more lucent mirror of our collective subconscious.

PS: sometimes a hole is just a hole ;)

Growth of the Soil (Norwegian Markens Grøde), is a novel by Knut Hamsun which won him the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1920.

It follows the story of a man who settles and lives in rural Norway.

The novel is written in the style of Norwegian new realism, a literary movement which was used in Hamsun's later novels.

This style was common during the first half of the 20th century in Norwegian literature.

Hamsun utilized techniques fairly new to the time such as stream of consciousness or interior monologue.

Randy Hamm suggested I read it and I never regretted it.

sometimes you think you're norwegian and sometimes he's grateful that you're not
