2mccsComment by AlbanyDave: I think I gave this one of the highest scores during voting, but you didn't do so great with votes. Go figure. My take on this is that the shot is very compelling. It is invocative, imo, of the first picture ever taken (in 1827) by Nicephore Niepce titled
View from the Study Window. Also it is reminiscent of work by Man Ray, Lisette Model's
Running Legs, and Gordon Parks'
The Bridge. But I notice that DPC voting doesn't always tend toward the truly aesthetic and, instead, targets the "Wow Factor". The two aren't always in sync.
Your portfolio has some great shots, too.
The Moon and the Mountain,
Dunes in Black and White, and
Summer Storm Passing Over Mt. Whitney, all obviously influenced by Ansel are also quite good. Recognition from the group came with those though. Nice.
I also love
Mud Patterns. Your work is tres cool.
Elsewhere, what's up with the comments referencing "another ribbon", "a gallery and a ribbon", and "on a roll". These guys are friends, right? Being new here, I'm trying to get a handle on the scene.
