Urgency

Unread post by cosmonaut1959 »

This is a non Sony shot as i still await my a77. I also don't think my Nex5n can fire remote flashes. Me and my son went out on a highway that is not open to traffic yet.
I haven't been doing much lately but a recent epidural has me on the rebound.

Very interesting photo: the arrow leads you to the yellow streak/line which leads you to the pond/lake and up to the moon. I guess this shot is worthy of your nick. (Don't push it, the lines do not lead you to the wc... :wink: ).
BTW, the cabin lighting is something you have done or was it really like that?

The light in the portable was a flash with a red gel on it. The moon was shot seperatly, correctly exposed and reinstalled into the shot.

It has sort of grown on me that shot, I didn't know quite what to make of it at first, being a little out of left field, the brightly lit loo on the side of the road etc. now I sort of 'get it' I think.

Hi Cosmonaut1959,

I treat this shot as more of a graphical abstract of light in defining geometrical elements. :) The lighted or lighting eements in the shot all come together to form an abstract light-paint. The crescent, outlined loo unit and the giant, instructive arrow on the asphalt sort of go against the outlined heights of irregular terrain with their neatly outlined borders.

The whole scene could even become more abstract with the elemenation of the natural shapes of the terrain altogether.


I'm glad you're feeling better, even if because of medication. The photo is a nice diiversion.
