City Series II || Opal Mosaic

This photograph intrigues me. The combination of colour, intensity and form reminds me of the combination of blueish Opals, and mosaic tiles. I'm very intrigued as to whether you like this one or not.  Interestingly I haven't been able to pick 100% what you, my friends, like in this series, and by that I mean how many people stop,view and like it.

I  love the high degree of complexity in this images, that demonstrate both a high degree of order, as well as chaotic organic-like forms.

I dont often talk about what I see or what captured me to talk the photograph but this time I wanted to let you know what I saw or rather what intrigued me.   The first thing that I noticed was the highly structured black window frames contrasted by the horizon light blue/purple windows.  Next I loved both the complex reflection pattern that looked in some panes as highly structured and regular next to organic like curved reflections, with different strips of horizontal colour.

For me, I seek or rather experience photographs or get drawn to them, often I'm not sure why, its more an intuition or feeling I get about them.

Anyways enough prattling.  I hope you like this image.  Enjoy.

City Series II || Sky Zebras

Two 'zebra' pieces from different parts of the city.  This one I like because of the boldness of the clear blue sky and the patterning of the 'zebras'.  Enjoy.

Captured in Manhattan, New York, I love this image for the green and whites, with the dark hatching.  It reminds me of a cold frosty winters day in Manhattan.

City Series I: Urban Tiger

Hunting, journey of a thousand kilometres.
Days of traveling, high altitudes, the air is thin.

Hunting, deep, dark, in a foreign land.
The natives speaking a foreign tongue, a dialect hard to understand.

Hunting, dense, tall canopies obscuring the light.
Fleeting glimpses of beauty, elusive, transient, evading.

Hunting, the tiger jumps, shadows hide, sunlight reveals.
The tiger appears, obscured stripes, a moment, now gone.

Hunting.

Enjoy.

City Series I | Golden Views

City Series I | Golden Views

Golden Views of Manhattan. One of my favourite images from the series. I love the complex, colour, and forms of this capture. I also like that we can see into a few windows and see the rooms window sill furniture, providing a splash of colour and forms different to the surface and reflections of the buildings.

Enjoy.

City Series | Ecru vista

This image was taken around 25th Street in Manhattan, from the roof of our apartment.  The light was going down very quickly and this vista just popped into and out of existence very quickly.  The thing about some of these reflections is that they are only seem for a short period of time from one year to the next.  I suspect this was one of those images.

As always you can click on the image for a larger version, and remember these images are copyrighted and have embedded Digimarc protection.

Enjoy.

2013 City Series: Sunset Now

This time, from Washington, on a very warm autumn day in the downtown area.  Actually, having said that, I'm pretty sure it was near the Capitol Building.  My GPS unit kept popping out, so I can't be certain.

So warm colours of sunset, with complex forms and planes.  Enjoy.
