Sorry for my misleading comment/question, Michael. I meant to write that your image had the rich tonal luster of a gelatin silver print and wondered if you’d somehow captured this effect by use of a special filter. (The image “A misty morning in Bluff, Utah, US” by Paul Martini, posted April 6, 2017 on the gallery has this same lustrous quality.) And thank you for further explanations on your process. I, too, am learning so much from this forum exchange.
Indeed, it is a beautiful day from the start, Hans, when I wake to such amazing images as posted here. They continue to inspire!
Wind and Fire
Michael, so glad you chose to post your photo (a couple images up). Did you use a special filter? I ask because it has that mysterious luster I associate with gelatin prints. Now there’s fifty shades of grey I don’t mind seeing.
And Hans, there is such a playful feel in Curling Cumulus. I keep going back to it because it keeps making me smile.
I agree, it’s still a bit tricky getting images to post, but as noted, we are determined enthusiasts!
Candle in the Wind
An intriguing title, Michael, for an image that has me drawing a breath like the swimmer Hans has seen in it. Now I, too, feel as if I am moving through the clouds.
Meanwhile below, a Fennec Fox offers a little accompaniment for your Minimal Music, Hans.
Oboe Solo
I feel the same way, Hans. So YES, let’s continue to amaze and (a)muse, to dance and dream. And let the wind do what it will!
In the photo below, the shadow of eyelashes softly texture an emerging dreamscape.
Emerging dreamscape
Michael, thank you for re-posting the two images. I am particularly fond of the “mostly grey, Sunset” which evokes for me the feeling of a pleasurable dream half-remembered.
And Hans’s, your most recently posted image from the “weekend with great skies” is like the bright shivers of bliss I feel at the onset of lucidity during dreams. Extraordinary!
I dove in deeply for this one.Could Be From The Sea
Website weirdness aside, I’m just so grateful to be able to see these fabulous images. Here’s one that made me wonder if Hans’s goat was still swimming its way across the sky.
Emily, I send this bright dove to you and to all who keep looking up despite the rains that may darken our days. Michael is right, of course, where we choose to put our focus makes all the difference. One kind gesture at a time.
Hans, your Easter Island Hangover made me laugh out loud — it is Very Funny.
Feeling Very Sweepy Now
A Cloud Dream and Cloudy Crow Champagne Bubbles put me in a party mood (while Michael’s image above reminds me not to have too much of the bubbly).
Thank you, Hans for kind compliments, and Hygee, for caring enough to be curious about what is there — or was there! For whatever it was, surely it is something else by now. And this fabulous word “floccinaucinihipilification” is a keeper.
Oh, very sorry, Hygge and All, I am one of those newbies myself and didn’t recognize it as contrail as it was mixed in with other streaks of wispy cloud. Here’s another part of the same sky which held other patches of similar rough cloud bits. Thank you for the clarification, Hygee. So much to learn and I’m grateful for your guidance.
