Abstraction

It looks as though you need a drink or a cigarette or something!
Or maybe that's why you are shaking so much?

Ha, just kidding :-)
how good is it that we (photographers) can take a shaky picture and call it abstract art?
The funny thing is that this shot actually works just like that.
good deal.

at least you had an interesting view!
and they let you take a camera into jury duty?
I expect a picture of the judge tomorrow :-)

(nicely converted by the way.)

sneaky!!!!

but the off center of the two openings is really interesting.
I'm not sure I like the purple(?) cast.
I think I would prefer more white.
But maybe that is the real color of it?
In which case, tell me to shut up and mind my own business!!!!

Black&White - Day 23: One Day I'll...

good motion blur capture with just enough of the action showing so you are able to tell what it is.
mine never come out like that!!

DAY 24. B&W. bus driver & reflections ...
by roz

Comment:
it took me a second to see the arm and wheel.
but that doesn't matter.
what matters is that I really like reflection shots.
although i never seem to be able to pull them off myself, i still find myself looking for them when i go out shooting - puddles, windows, even shiny granite grave stones!!!
this one is great in the fact that you have a wide range of tones and the bus window breaks the reflection up into smaller windows and frames.
Cool-(not Kewell, the Australian footballer who plays for Liverpool and came on as a sub yesterday in the Champions League final but still lost!!!)

Sorry, my turn to ramble today :-)

Cool shot.

You should ask if you can attach your camera to it and use a remote control to take some pictures :-)

I find it hard to get lighting correct also.
it must be the hardest thing to do in photography!

I think the problem you have here is that the paper is so white and her hair is so dark, that you aren't going to be able to expose both properly.
it's just like taking a picture of a shadowed house in the middle of the day-you'll either get the sky perfectly exposed, but the house will be a silhouette or the other way round.

The only way I can see round your problem would be to have another light shining on her hair, whether that be an extra flash or a reflector reflecting the sunlight there.

anyway, that's what I think, but i'm certainly no expert :-)
