This particular place is likely my favourite place on earth. Of course I haven’t seen it all yet. Eshaness brings me peace. I’ve been here a few times in our two trips to Shetland and I’ve gotten to see it under a few different conditions. There is something to be said for familiarity.
Photo of the Week #234
The colour version of this image hung in our livingroom for some time.I liked it initially but it didn’t last. I began to look at it and pick it apart, find more and more things that I didn’t like about the photograph. Sometimes that happens, you have to live with art for a bit I find, then you find out what you really think. In this case, the colours weren’t sitting well with me and I eventually got to the point that I needed to take it down. Judi had a great shot she made in Alberta that took it’s place. :)
Recently, I began playing around with the image as a black and white and it began to speak to me once again. If the colours were what I felt didn’t work, take it away and see what you’re left with. In this case I think the colour was standing in the way of the true interest in the photograph.
Comments and opinions always welcome.
