Next Shot Week 7 - Technique: Creating Depth - Theme: Open Choice


A Sense of Depth




This one I think is a good example of depth being created by light and
the help of the use of a wide angled lens. It was taken in the foyer of
the
Art Gallery of New Sout Wales back in about 2010





This is Dee Dee  a Labradoodle which we looked after for a week while  it's owner enjoyed a week away at
an artists workshop - this I believe gives that feel of depth from the close up of the dog and the relatively
in focused background.

I have put together a set of other photos of other examples of depth. See the links below.

This is an accompanying album to a post on the techniques of creating depth in a photo for the group Next Shot

"If the doors of perception were cleansed everything would appear to man as it is, infinite"
                                                                                             Aldus Huxley





I went looking for a quote on doors from the band The doors and just out of interest The above quote is what inspired
the name of the band! The quote was taken from the book 'The Doors of Perception'

Catch of the week








I like the blues and the energy of the water in this shot. A real sense of how insignificant we are compared to the might and power of nature.
This photo I chose to introduce some Photos from the last week or so which you can find by clicking on the link below!

Images And Words Week 152 - Sea,Land,Clouds,Fog,Sky,Light,Stars,Heavens and Laughter.




"....its particular light on woods, on rivers, on the sea - became my beginning in the coloured world in which I had not yet had my beginning."






This week I thought to post in the Images and Words group for a change. Not having a lot of time for Multiply I find I have to limit my time focused here so will for a while anyway post only in a couple of the groups I belong to unless I find I have the time or inspiration to do so. This is a weekly theme group run by Milli and should you feel inspired to join in go to this link and join in the fun. For rules and such, visit the group home page.

When your face
appeared over my crumpled life
at first I understood
only the poverty of what I have.
Then its particular light
on woods, on rivers, on the sea,
became my beginning in the coloured world
in which I had not yet had my beginning.
I am so frightened, I am so frightened,
of the unexpected sunrise finishing,
of revelations
and tears and the excitement finishing.
I don't fight it, my love is this fear,
I nourish it who can nourish nothing,
love's slipshod watchman.
Fear hems me in.
I am conscious that these minutes are short
and that the colours in my eyes will vanish
when your face sets.
