The Weary Traveler

In this photo you teach me a little about the portrayal of vulnerability and the psychology associated with such settings. I am peeking into a private world. You are exposing an inside look at your mind (body as well, I suppose). The viewer becomes voyeur.

It's the type of challenge photo that succumbs to being viewed in the context of many others. The eye tires, sometimes quick decisions are made, the mind still has the effect of the last viewed photo on board... Challenges can prevent true appreciation of photos. I suppose they are meant to single out what one prefers, after all. This photo of yours is elegant in a passive manner. I came back to appreciate it and I do appreciate it much more now that it is one its own and not with others.

You remind me that lustre, reflections, and sheen are pleasantly exotic additions to any photo.

Camouflage in a flirty visual way. Playing with the viewer and imbuing a photo composition with a sense of humor, you remind me, leads to always pleasant viewing experiences. Consistency in views and in selecting an image worthy of showing others is an art. You have it.

You remind me that the eye tends to travel around an image. Sometimes it is blocked from entering the image and tries to find a way around. To block and release the eye to freely view are useful techniques to learn.

You teach me about "light behind" and "light in front" views, the shadows from each and the tones that develop accordingly. The shadows lead away into that great expanse of snow releasing me to wander around at will.

You teach me that eye contact is important and overcomes many difficulties when taking portraits.

Week 1: Snow Wagon

You remind me that abandoned toys have plenty of meaning for adult viewers. The sinuous path in the garden and signs of recent activity - yet no one being there - add to the story.

The story. Stop Press. You have grabbed my attention. You remind me that that is what this is all about: grab the attention, tell the story, execute, and keep consistency.

03 - Pair of Seagulls

A single pebble on a beach. One among many. The choice of that one (or in this case two). This photo technique you teach me about and how to make that isolation within a context.
