I actually think this image works perfectly as the cover or first image of the market essay.

Originally posted by mariuca: In response to Don, all images are made of two different pictures (with the exception of #7 which is minimal editing and #1 made of three different shots). I tried to render visible at least one thought or one association of ideas that came to my mind when looking at a painting or sculpture. With a few exceptions, I noted the artist whose work I looked at or used for reference

I'm very interested in combining images and this essay just makes me more interested. You really nailed it. Well done.

are you combining images? for at least some of these? This is funny and profound. and yes, longing.

this picture, which doesn't seem to be in your essay, is perhaps the best picture ever taken in the history of mankind.

but the essay is also excellent, for the same reason: the beautiful slicing sunlight, the combinations of words and people, the boy crab and the man melons

another favorite shot: the woman in profile blocked by a rose
