Construction

this photo is under construction. the telephone pole is not available yet. for now, you must make do with a shadow and a reflection. We really must apologize for your fractured view. we're working on it, you can count on that. Be comforted by the large number of signs to that effect. What is photography, after all, besides signs? And here we are on this funny site talking about how lovely the signs are. Sometimes we miss the moon for the finger. But we're working on it. Soon we'll have it all pulled together. But if you look now, maybe you'll see some of that beautiful glue.

soaked with sentiment, the photo seems in danger of falling apart.

a quick dizzy look at the city. we never really get a good look at our home. we're always too busy to notice it. instead of capturing a view that we normally would miss, this photo instead captures the blur of living and not noticing.

Strange Music
by ladpupmoe

Comment:
photography is indeed strange music. hard to dance to. best not to try at this angle. I don't even know which way is up. so I'll just hum along instead, because the rhythm is good. and the simple palette of complimentary red and green is enjoyable as well.

Steps with Plant

Comment:
each step is its own canvas of shadows. each step is to the rhythm. (a tango)

the plant is merely the subject of the photo, overwhelmed by layers of associations

Another Beautiful Day
by mariuca

Comment:
it's hard to tell whether they're coming or going, but I think they're coming, which means the day is already behind them, shining so brilliantly in their strong, fresh memory that it is almost blasted out of existence with its own beauty. The tunnel represents getting older. It has a lovely sheen that is reflected youth. While much less resplendent, it is easier to appreciate because it is soft and subtle. Youth is blinded by the light.

this is a simple enough photo but I do like the composition. good negative space and the ears going out of frame make for a more dynamic composition. the dog is certainly helping out with its soulful look and coy paws.

Reflections of Shadows
by jomari

Comment:
not a fan of car close-ups in general but of course this is about the reflection, which is very interesting because it suggests many things: a face in profile, a zebra walking by (or perhaps just a zebra rug). you even caught the furry texture of the zebra somehow. maybe this is a new superhero who bends reality, or a supervillain who refuses to choose between light and darkness.

Get Bell Soon
by pgirish007

Comment:
"a bell that now and then rings" bells are all over song lyrics, as their function is primarily sonic, like a song, and they often have powerful symbolism, as they ring for very specific reasons, like a wedding or a funeral or to mark an historic occasion. this bell looks rather personal but the angle and the framing make it seem larger than it is.... the personal made epic. Perhaps this bell marks the dramas, successes, and traumas of a single family. Only the owl knows at this point.
