An image as complex as the subject of reality. Fascinating.

what's real.1

Comment by 2mccs:
I think reality is such a complex, many layered idea. There is the reality of the external world that the photograph captures a split second of. Whether that split second is an accurate portrayal of the external real world reality is questionable. Then there is a deeper reality. A more vague, internal universal knowledge which can be touched and moved inside of ourselves by a photograph.

Thank you Mariuca for challenging me to explore this subject with your beautiful photography.

Beautiful. Totally unexpected from you (not the beautiful part but the subject). Some day tell me where this is.

This is really well done IMHO. Sharp, clean, well-composed. Deserved a higher score.

Comment by insteps:
As photographers, we continually question while trying to see. The more clues we uncover the more curious we become. I'd argue the act of capturing an image is closer to reality than the end result. A photograph might look like reality but it’s only a piece of a brief moment in time. It is flat, silent, has no odor, ignorant of everything outside the frame, and sometimes colorless. Are photographs even capable of representing reality? In essay format we get closer but reality can't be held and studied.

Enjoyable collection of natural overlays.
